When I originally posted, I admit, I was just pissed about the OLG camera/ticket situation.

However, since then I have learned so much about this new method of policing in Seattle – and the gobs of revenue the CIty is making on it.

I still think it is curious that people are outraged by drones and surveillance cameras but NOT by a type of surveliance that has such a crazy monetary incentive behind it. I remain kind of dissapointed by West Seattle’s simplistic “did the crime, do the time” attitude about these cameras. I think it is such a more disturbing and complicated issue than this.
