Little secrets of life

On the one hand: New Orleans's political and law enforcement community operates in such an incompetent and/or corrupt fashion that an expensive and intrusive system of widespread public surveillance was installed as an (apparently not tongue-in-cheek) solution to the city's crime problem. (Or possibly as a disaster management system... whatever gets you more excited) That's pretty bad.

On the other hand: New Orleans's political and law enforcement community operates in such an incompetent and/or corrupt fashion that the intrusive and expensive public surveillance system doesn't actually work anyway. That's kind of nice.

Life is a beautiful thing.
