British Traffic Wardens Issued CCTV Head Cameras

Rick writes "The Surveillance Society of Great Britain has taken another turn for the worse, as traffic wardens in Eccles, Manchester are being issued with CCTV head sets and given the legal power to impose fines of up to £80 for littering and other anti social behavior"

Thank god.

There is something inherently creepy about this whole CCTV idea, coupled with England's vague and ominous "antisocial behaviors" law It does make me somewhat happy (in a sick way) that America isn't the worst place in the developed world as far as privacy laws go, which somewhat surprises me, coupled with the sneaking suspicion that Americans are even somewhat below the British in the sheepish support of the abuse of authority. This isn't so much a flame against the Brits, as a lament.

If things like this happened in America it would finally give me incentive to enact my long planned expatriation. I still have no idea as to where to go, but I think the anglophone countries are getting to be out of the question, even (slowly, and to a lesser extent) Canada.

Well, muslims in europe should be shot and ground up into live stock feed anyway.
Why can't the fuckers stay in their own sthit hole countries? It's not like they would tolerate such huge immigration of westerns into their "holy grounds".
