This country is such a backwards shit hole. People are afraid to let their kids walk a few blocks, on a route they're familiar with, cause some asshole may try and call DCFS on them.

Meanwhile there are more fucking cameras deployed in public than in any time in human history, and they have the capability to network together and track people and relay information to police, emt's, for fire departments, etc all in real time... But we don't use it to help make people safer, or give them peace of mind, or allow their kids to play and be free.

That should tell you everything about the real intentions of all this surveillance bullshit.

It's not here to keep the slaves safe. It's here to keep them in line

    Those few blocks may be constructed in such a way that they'd be walking in the road with traffic whizzing around them. If there ever was a sidewalk it's been removed to add another lane for cars.
