The Aftermath Of The RNC

Residents of Tampa, Florida have one more thing they can thank Republicans for, two weeks after the RNC came to town. And that's never-ending surveillance. In preparation for the RNC, a two million dollar surveillance system – complete with 60 cameras – was installed in the city to monitor crowds for suspicious activity and persons of interest. The RNC is now long gone – but the cameras are still in place. Although, they're turned off – they can be flicked back on at any moment, which is concerning members of the city council. As one councilwoman, Mary Mulhern, said, "This is a huge thing. We'll have many dozens of security cameras overhead. We don't want permanent surveillance." The city has called a council meeting for September 20th to address the Big Brother issue.

They aren't turned off. They are just being controlled from somewhere else.
