The vehicles roam parking lots and garages in search of "hot list" vehicles provided by the state Department of Justice. If a car with a "hot" plate is spotted, mall security guards view closed-circuit TV footage to locate the vehicle's driver and alert police." |

Someone who is behind on their child support payments? Someone who got too many RLC tickets (how long before those vendors start sharing info - if not merging)? Someone who has a habit of putting, "(sic)," after the word, "america," and/or keeps posting disparaging quotes of certain republican elements? -- "We all see Alaska's climate is changing. We are all feeling the effects of coastal erosion, thawing permafrost, retreating sea ice and record forest fires are affecting our communities and our infrastructure." --Sarah Palin |

Now how do ya suppose they're gonna identify the driver of a stolen car? To do that, the mall would have to install cameras on every light post. Welcome to big brother shopping mall. |

I'm just pointing out that there are far more intrusive systems already in use than what I proposed to keep police officers a little more honest. |

What they should do, is install a scanner at each entrance. Then they would get alerted as soon as the car came in. |
