        I mean, there were definitely cameras everywhere but they werent part of a system(closed circuit and they looked awful). Hell, they still look like shit most of the time.

        Hackman had MFs zooming in on people’s faces 100 yards out from atm cameras and stuff.

        Obviously, the state wants this but it’s not there yet. If it was, it’d feel extra bad how many murders and other heinous crimes they just give up on.
