In which state do motorists have a right to operate motor vehicles on public roads anonymously? There neither is nor has ever been such a right. In most states, you cannot so much as park an unlicensed vehicle on a public road.

Do try and make the distinction between rights and privileges. You want privacy when tavelling on public roads? Fine...hook your horses to a buggy like the Amish and off ya go. -

Considering what?

Its BS. There's no need for that. It's one thing if they wanna track you going into a building or on private property but not for the whole city. Come on... this is just pure paranoia.

The fact that someone else's hands are dirty does not imply that yours are clean. From what I understand New York is one of the least democratic (small "d") States in the country. It's not surprising that it should become the testing ground for new means of controlling people (does anyone have a better way to say that, there seems to be a word for it but it's slipped my mind).

I don't get it. What's the point? If there's a terrorist attack will they look at the film of people entering on the day of attack, (thousands upon thousands of vehicles), check out each and every one (thousands upon thousands of vehicles), and try to find the perpetrators that way? What about if the perpetrators entered the day before, or two days before, or three days before? I just don't see the sense of this.

Good point. Additionally, the terrorists have CNN too. So they know about this therefore why don't they just take the bus or train? Secondly, terrorists don't execute their plans on the spur of the moment. They plan that **** for months. Who's to say that the terrorists don't live there months in advance and plan from inside? This vehicle tracking idea won't do a thing to help in that case.

This is an example of government doing something only because they can with today's technology. It is HUGE amounts of money wasted ... it could never be valuable enough to rationalize the cost.

Government: Mind your own business and do the things you are supposed to do.
Leave us alone, otherwise. -

Orwell's 1984 was about totalitarian govt and the cold war was based on not letting the Soviet Union come over here and do things like this to us,it should be mandatory reading in schools...what the hell is wrong with these people who willingly want to give up freedom?

and thats why i left, drunk undercover s, police harassing children and innocent people, beating them in the streets and leaving them for dead. Its systematic harassment. all they have to do is put all the man power to stopping actual upper level crime instead of focusing on petty crime. and news flash they have cameras all over all five boroughs and it feeds in to nypd and even on public access in nyc. they are watching they are tracking now they are just releasing it to the press.

setting up a dumpy park to be the next safest park, while not adding staff or park police too it, breaking a mans knee cap, as he rides his bike because they think he has alcohol in his possession, yet bloomburg and all the commissioners drink wine and beer while the philharmonic plays... also what about the radioactive parks in staten island, why havent we seen a investigation on how and why that radioactive waste was dumped there. and diamond dealer flying though the emergency lane of all the tunnels with lights and sirens... its set up to control the underclass, they jacked up the rent, cut the taxes, increased the food cost, handcuff 4 yearolds to chairs... they are making nyc people powerless... cranes collapse, bricks killing people, and abuse of authority goes unchecked... why don't they give more money to policing the police, instead of dirty bomb surveillance. -

Hey Georgia50 (and anyone else who supports this practice) remember what the word public means. It means that it belongs to the people, all people. It does not mean that public areas belong to the government and people should be subject to whatever invasive practices they see fit to force upon us. Public land belongs to us and the government officials work for us. Nothing this drastic should ever be allowed to begin without the expressed consent of the people of Manhattan at least. I think all of New York should get a say regardless of which address. It should be put on the ballot as a proposition to be voted on by all New Yorkers in the November election. They claim that it is a matter of national security to make the weak-minded, easily frightened masses go along with their invasions quietly. Ever see Brazil by Terry Gilliam? You should. Everyone should. Remember those who would allow their liberty to be sacrificed for a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
