America, fuck yeah.
In Florida, Sheriff Sgt. Ken Sonier “watches those who don’t want to be seen,” according to News-Press. Of course, in a healthy, non-brainwashed society most us would not take kindly to being watched, no matter the reason, but in the post-9/11 world far too many of us have bought into the idea we are somehow obliged to surrender our privacy in order to combat the terrorists, never mind we don’t have a good idea who the terrorists are. Fox News now tells us they have blond hair and blue eyes.
Sonier and the Lee County cops are busy installing “custom-made cameras” in fire hydrants, on exit signs in apartment buildings, and metal underneath cars. “Citizens don’t know what we do,” bragged Lee County Sheriff Lt. Gary Desrosiers of the Technical Investigations Unit. “And that’s a good thing.” It was presumably a good thing in East Germany, too, or so the fascist control freaks who once ran that country no doubt believed.
“The annual budget for the TIU is about $10 million, but that includes salaries and maintenance on all the department’s cell phones, laptops and equipment. Most of the equipment purchased is with federal grants.” More specifically, Department of Homeland Security grants.

They're also using cell phones to monitor EVERYONE. Consider your cell phone a location transponder. Only with the battery taken out is it truly OFF.
What about the sudden installation of "traffic cameras" at the intersection near The Bean of Mesilla? WTF are those for? Traffic jams in downtown Mesilla? Ese please.
Just remember, if you can see the camera, then you can make sure the camera doesn't see you. Keep your eyes open, and then shit yourself in fear when you lose count.
