I'm surprised that everyone is mad at the city. I'm overjoyed. Less big brother looking over my shoulder the better. The statistics that the cameras save lives were sketchy anyway, and the cameras actually produce more rear end collisions due to drivers stopping so suddenly. However, not withstanding that I felt it was all a money making scheme anyway, this is what governments do. They supply services for the constituents on a limited budget. If the people feel they need to have the big brother lights, they can partition their congressmen and get a ballot put on the next election and start paying taxes to have the lights. However, the chances of that happening are 0% since no way that would pass a popular vote. Oh well, much more important things in life than big brother lights.
