Day 6
Just like surveillance on our private property improves our home security,
surveillance in public areas increases public safety. Public surveillance can
aid in keeping you safe when you are out and about.
Public security cameras can keep an eye out for crimes as well as act as a
deterrent. For example, if suspicious individuals are seen in an area,
authorities may be able to get ahead of the situation and possibly move
innocent bystanders out of harm’s way.
Pro: Reduce Crime Rate
Along the same lines, surveillance footage can be used as evidence in the
courtroom. On the other hand, video footage may also help to prove a
person’s innocence. Either way, recordings of public areas can help
provide clues to solve crimes, and may even provide solid evidence for
criminal cases.
Pro: Convenience
The cost of public security cameras is another issue. Since many doubt the
effectiveness, they feel that public surveillance systems are a waste of
money. They argue that high maintenance and costs of these systems is
not justified by their limited results.
As you can see, both sides have valid arguments. It is a matter of whether
the pros outweigh the cons or vice versa. For the most part, public
surveillance has been working for our benefit.
