With the help of WeAreChange, we are protesting our public surveillance system here in Lancaster.
Anyone who is close enough to make the trip, please do!!
It is time to fight!
They are considering facial recognition in these Bosch PTZ cameras.
We have new information that has recently hit the news here. I put in a Right-to-Know request of my
Mayor's office and received 160 documents. The Lancaster News then took this information and dedicated almost the entire
A-section of Lancaster Intelligencer Sunday News to the camera situation.
They uncovered the fact that one employee monitoring us has a past criminal record, which was missed by
the LCSC (Lancaster Community Safety Coalition), and the IRONY?? She was charged with harassment for following
a Leola man and sending him annoying emails. Yes, you read this right!
Now, how much more proof do we need that we do not want this system in place???
Remember - the LCSC is a private non-profit company monitoring us 24/7.
Date: August 29th, 2009
Time: 1:00pm we will gather here.
Place: Gathering at Farnum Park (Water & Conestoga Streets)
At 2:00pm we will march under the cameras up Queen Street, 5 blocks, to Lancaster Square for the remainder of
the protest.
Ends at 4pm or 5pm.
