Don't we already have the kind of surveillence of places that are likely spots for violent crimes to be committed? I'm speaking, of course, about convenience stores. Sure, those places are private property, the cameras installed by owners/renters, but it's basically the same thing. We also have cameras in the stairwells of parking ramps (public and private). We're already there, folks.
I say, bring on the cameras -- let's use technology to our advantage -- people are being killed on our streets and this is not a trivial matter.
