Big Brother

Our elementary school backs onto a high school and while out on yard duty a couple of high school boys got into a fight. I was AMAZED how quickly almost everyone got out a camera phone and started to record it! Obviously they thought this was cool.

However, I just thought though, I wonder with practically everyone having a camera phone now, whether that will start to discourage bad behavior somewhat (with proper use)? I'm thinking that everyone with a camera is like the new wave of police cameras installed in crime areas in large urban centers, there to reduce crime or at least capture images of the criminals..... just a thought. A camera phone as possibly a bully prevention devise eventually? Hmmmm I'll have to give that more thought.
