No, those weren't what I meant at all. Around here most people have
security cameras (maybe that's the correct name) usually mounted under
the eavestroughing several feet to left or right of the door.

I often walk through a suburban development near here because I like
the gardens and often stop to chat with the owners and say how much I
like their gardens. All gardeners love to feel people see and
appreciate their work. Nearly all the houses have the cameras, not
nosiness, just ability to identify if there is trouble.

Very often if there is a crime police go door to door collecting those
videos.

As usual, taking my words out of context. In referring to women IN
CANADA who wear niqab or hajib I said I would defend their right to
wear it.

In point of fact, just because some Muslim women wear it does not mean
they are part of an 'extreme' branch of Islam. A Palestinian friend
wears a hajib and she has lovely amber coloured eyes. I have teased
her that she is half as stunning without her hajib as when she is
wearing it, particularly a very lovely light mauve one.

Okay, then I don't know what you were talking about someone ringing
a doorbell with a camera.

You're defending extremist islam, which is a male chauvinist, women
suppressing culture.

Oh, come on. You don't walk around like that if you're not extreme.

Funnily enough, it was cyclists specifically that prompted me to
install cameras in all my cars.

I installed one because of the incidence of the deliberate accident
scam. This is where a car load of people cut you off and slam on the
brakes causing a rear ender. They then claim ridiculous amounts for
injuries etc.
Recently, there was an incident in Vancouver where, fortunately, the
victim had a dashcam and the crooks ended up in court instead.

Good to see. Fortunately that scam hasn't taken off here (that said I
can't speak for on the mainland).

On a very similar theme, I've slammed my brakes twice on tailgaters
over the past 35 or so years of driving - both times they rear ended
my car. I was prepared for that eventuality in both cases, otherwise I
wouldn't have done it in the first place.

I do. I've never kept the videos though - none of the incidents have
been serious enough, but they would have made a pretty damning
compilation if I had.

The camera is mounted so part of the drive/garden/pathway and door are
covered. Just like security cameras in stores. It allows the person
inside to see exactly who, how many, are ringing the door bell.

It is considerably more rare than the reverse. Check the figures and
that even after you allow for the fact some men might feel ashamed to
admit to being beaten up by a female. It probably happens more often
to women because they are usually smaller stature.

My male friends do not call me sexist but those who are friends and
many with whom I worked back in the day say I don't give an inch, and
I feel it is a pity more women are not like that and get it sorted
out.

When I started work women were expected to quietly leave once they
knew they were pregnant etc so over the years I saw some incredible
situations unfold, so yes, I don't give an inch. I don't hate men, I
just want a fair deal.

Strange you say that, I noticed a sale on dashboard cameras and the
thought passed through my mind. I respect cyclists on the road but
sometimes they do seem to have a death wish and do the most foolhardy
things, after all, they will be the loser.

If I have a tail gater I merely flash my headlights when nothing is
coming in the opposite direction, tail gater merely sees what they
think is brake lights. Most amusing

fail to see the relevance in any of that. It's not a competition as to

I don't think you'll ever get what you consider a fair deal with an
attitude like that.

If your callers are JWs, tell them you have been disfellowshipped, but
give no details. They're never supposed to talk to their own outcasts.

Doesn't work for LDS "missionaries" or GOP canvassers.

That was what I was trying to think of but had just been looking at
some go-pro and dashcam ads and couldn't make it surface from the
senior memory banks

Lucretia was talking about both hijabs and niqabs (which are pretty
