You have your problem children everywhere.. I'm not in that division, but can honestly say that I'd rather not see cameras pointed at any safe spots.. It's hard to find an area where you can rest with limited piece of mind that someone's not going to sneak up and put a gun in your rear window. That being said, I'm more concerned for the officers that use a secluded fenced in area like this to take their eye off the street and do reports or even close their eyes for 15min with a partner as lookout on a really tough, slow evening. I'd hate the see that officer scrutinized for "sleeping on duty" or "slacking off" in the media eye. He or she may be a star except for that one painful clip... But if they're bumping uglies, then you deserve it I guess. Just hope the news points fingers at the right people.
