[Leica] Not a police state!

[douglas.sharp at gmx.de (Douglas Sharp)]

It's already almost impossible to take a picture in any UK town or city 
without it having a CCTV camera somewhere on it.
Did anyone else notice how very well used the airport police machine 
guns look? I spent 7 months working within the perimeters of Gatwick 
airport a couple of years ago and never got used to it, even after 30 
years in Germany where all police are armed.

Hey - does this make me a potential criminal - look at the top of the 
post on the left-hand edge.

There's another here, on a bracket at the top left of the Pier 
Apartments building

Next step is to ban Google Earth! The resolution is often good enough to 
recognise CCTV camera sites.
