Public safety needs to be weighed against civil rights

Oooo a tankie!

. I don’t think women should be drugged because of a extreme fundamentalist a paranoid interpretation of privacy rights.

Oooo a straw man reducto ad absurdum argument!

Blocked. Buhbye🤖

I'm not a tankie. And clubs already do their own closed circuit TV surveillance. And no my argument is not reducto ad absurdum. There is a growing and pervasive problem with drugging drinks in American bars. I only brought it up as a side benefit anyway. I'd really like the convenience of seeing how hot a bar is instead of having to pay to get in only to see that it's lame and leave.

You strike me as a very youthful cop tbh, full of weird ideas of how the world works and with righteous belief that you are right and anyone who has a different pov is wrong... But that's just based on this thread.

All you got is ad hominem attacks and its pathetic. I'm talking about a public live stream where a lot of people would see it and potentially catch predators.

Let me counter with my own ad hominem attack. You sound like a square that doesn't go clubbing. Social people want to club where the most action is at. Not intellectually masturbate online about privacy absolution.

You act like there'd be a camera covering every square inch. A few cameras looking at the bar and dance floor would be enough. You do realize clubs and festivals broadcast live all the time right. Whoops no, no I guess you wouldn't.
