One man’s freedom fighter is another man’s Luddite.
Here in the US, where we have access to a variety of high quality, high power, home defense mechanisms, shooting will probably be the method of choice.
The British gov’t can’t let itself be deterred by all that vandalism. They need drastic measures, like these highway cameras. How else are they going to finally deal with all those people driving on the wrong side of the road?
There seem to be hundreds of the little suckers everywhere; however, there also seems to be 10s that are being destroyed. Do the local town councils do some sort of cost-benefit analysis between the revenue generated and the costs of the initial install and the subsequent re-installs or repairs? Not to mention the anger of the local electorate when they notice how many are installed to act as revenue generators and not for reasons of safety.
The arrogant stupidity of the government at all levels in the UK is fascinating to observe.
Occasionally they don’t completely destroy the camera. Here’s a photo of your Luddites making their getaway.
So I guess the chains are not resting as lightly upon our UK breatheren as they thought they would.

The drug culture is even making it’s way into Amish country.
Why just the other day in Lancaster, PA, there was a clop by shooting.
They are going to need security cameras to monitor the traffic cameras.
Soon, every other job in England will involve one bloke watching a monitor watching another camera which another bloke will be watching the first camera. At the end of their shifts they will then switch chairs.
That site is the shit! Ha. ha. It almost assumed a coffee table-like artistry.
Stick it to The Man!
