Again, you confuse a legitimate use of surveillance on a minor child by his parents (legally responsible for that child, and also the owner of the vehicle) to one where the state uses to abuse and oppress the vast majority of society. They aren't the same. You need to understand the difference

They are exactly the same. Raise a child under constant surveillance, and that child will grow into an adult that expects, even demands the same from government. It's what we are beginning to experience today.

Your premise is complete bullsh1t. Where is the great clamor for it now? Cameras are all over schools and campuses. Some schools have card access for students and visitors. I don't see a ton of kids demanding that they be under surveillance all the time.

I grew up in a strict household with a cop for a stepdad and as an only child without pets. I didn't get away with anything (I had nobody else to blame, not even 'the dog'!)

And I am here to tell you I am opposed to a government run surveillance society. I am not in favor of it and I certainly am not demanding it. I don't even like my grocery stores using buyer cards to track individual purchases.

Weakest argument I have seen yet posted on this.
