Road Rage Justifies More Government Surveillance on Our Roadways
First, I want to share my condolences to the family and friends of Thomas Lark. He was a...

As someone who usually has a distaste for government overstepping, I whole-heartedly support the use of these Flock cameras. Sorry you had to put up with an idiot driver but laws are laws and should someone openly break one, they deserve some punishment .....no exceptions allowed. People seem to be alarmists about the government "spying" on us but each of them should always think a little ahead of themselves. One of those cameras may well benefit them someday when a real crime is committed and that surveillance may be appreciated, especially when explaining who's at fault is in question.
Thank you sir for your statements. I completely support them. Enjoy your weekend! E
You're quite welcome Eric. I'll use an old point of wisdom about these cameras. If a person tends to follow the laws of society and behave normally during their daily activities they should have no concerns about who or what is watching. Those who are bent out of shape are being "surveilled" more intensely than these cameras every time they get on their smart phone or log onto the internet. They should think about that.
Another great point. I do think there is a difference between cameras on roadways to enforce safety and "Big Brother" tracking all of our movements. Of course, if people followed the rules/laws, we wouldn't need more surveillance. I guess the point of my article is that given the poor driving behavior today, it is needed. Have a great week sir.
This is not discipline, this is abuse and assault. These women should not be allowed around children. Furthermore, I am surprised the assailant felt justified in her assault. Had that been my child, wicked woman who assaulted the child would be in the hospital trying to recover from her meeting with me. Parents have to protect their children.
incorrect name in headline
Congratulations.
Deputies on the scene and the assailant got away and apparently they didn't get close enough to provide a description.
