All hail demagoguery.

It's like someone said in that British camera overabundance thread: The government throws a few bones to the public to make it look like they're being tough while having headaches tryin' to find a real solution.

McCraw said the project will eventually grow to include at least 70 cameras throughout South Texas, some with zoom lens and thermal capacity. The state is using $5 million in federal security grants that have been earmarked for the web camera program

Isolated spots + $5 million dollars worth of cameras
= no illegal immigrants
= no cameras and an auction on ebay.

Another $5 million dollars of cameras watching the first set of cameras
= problem solved!

How many normal people are going to want to sit watching a camera on a border for a few hours. NO ONE!!!

if anyone actually spends their time looking at that site they officially qualify for a "you have no life" award.

I think everyone is "misunderestimating" the administration. This is actually a very clever plan.

Any bozo that emails a report in, having watched hours of this stuff, will automatically be put on surveillance himself - since it is highly likely he will soon tool himself up and go machine gun a school or two to make his mark in history.

It clearly can't be to stop illegal immigrants, since we all know that hitting the employers of the aforementioned would be far more effective.

They started it 160 years ago when they stole Texas from Mexico. But to be fair the Mexicans weren't really using it. Now the Mexicans are trying to steal it back via illegal migrants. :clown:
