And...... can you remind me why it's NOT 'victimisation' of (for example) young CHILDREN and OLD PEOPLE in the streets because they are 'watched' by CCTV all day when it's RARELY them who are behaving drunkenly at closing time in cities?
And why it's NOT victimisation of ME and MY famiuly when we are checked by security systems at Airports as we RARELY carry bombs?
And why it's NOT victimisation of your family in shops that use Store detectives when it's RARELY been you OR your children who have been shoplifters?
And why it's NOT victimisation of me when I have been breathalysed FOUR TIMES in my life when I rarely DRINK?
...... I'll make it easier for you..... the reason is simple..... to catch those who DO break the law and thus DISCOURAGE such breaks in the law, the INNOCENT have to be 'monitored' along with the GUILTY.
Sadly, we haven't managed to persude the guilty to wear special clothes (eye-mask, hooped-top and beret) so that we can spot them and leave the REST of us alone...... However, if you can find a way for us to PREDICT who will speed, steal, bomb, drink we'll do OUR beast to change the cameras to AVOID looking at them!
