And what happens if you identify multiple pooings?

As I expressed the whole of the CC is a bit much. The other thing is it has to result in a prosecution not just evidence given, so not a simple task of snapping the event. But once you put out the fear factor out there such events would diminish anyway so keeping the costs of this down. It's cheap CCTV.

This is either Sheldrake's Morphic Resonance or Dawkin's Memetics in operation. Get some bonkers politicians on the scene and they all go bonkers.

Yes they should get New Shoes and if filming secretly, a pair of Hush Puppies.

I am sick and tired of all this fuss about dog poo whilst cats get away with it.

It's racism I tell you!

The unfortunate dog owners have nothing to hand their little plastic bags from.
