Fed up with crime in the French Quarter, a group of residents has come up with an idea to blanket the area with inexpensive web cameras to try to catch criminals in the act.
Joshua Clark, who has helped organize a program called Quarter Safe, says he is urging businesses and residents in the Quarter to purchase web cams for as little as $10 and to mount them prominently.
Marge Simpson: You know, the courts may not be working any more, but as long as everyone is videotaping everyone else, justice will be done.
Actually I hope everyone buys one. More cameras in the Quarter only means more opportunities for this kind of unintentional humor I caught on a coffee shop wall in the Quarter a few years ago.
The cameras will help if anyone has to be "prosicuted"
