Are there cameras in Kennedy High School? I'll bet there are. According to Mayor Daley cameras make people safer... camera's around the city are "like having a cop on every corner."
If cameras can't help kids in a realtively small and controlled environment like a school then how can they help adults in the "real world?"
They can't. Just another example of why the mayor and everyone else in favor of a "surveillence society" is full of it and grasping for straws.
This post says the Freedom Museum is "Now Open" but it's not open quite yet. It officially opens on Tuesday, April 11.
But will anyone attend it anyways once it opens? I would if it didn't cost five bucks to get in.
Here's a quote from that Tribune article, "Visitors 6 and older will be charged a $5 admission fee. 'We have seen research that shows visitors appreciate the museum more if a value is assigned to the visit,' Anderson said."
So they are saying I will enjoy the museum more if i have to pay money to get in? They've got their logic backwards. People enjoy good museums not because they pay to get in. But they enjoy good museums, because they are good. And to make a museum good, you have high operating fees. Now while it drop Tribune 10 mill to make this, and i'm sure there is personnel cost, this ain't no Art Institute or Field Museum.
The cost to attend this museum will disappear just like it used to cost you money to get a Red Eye.
Hi there,
My name's Scotty, and i'm the paper hat guy. Thanks for the love. For the record, there's three rules to the paper hat game:
1) You can't talk.
2) You can't force anybody to play.
3) You always win.
Try it your damn self! It's tons of fun.
