Whereas, these students graduated high school from a commonwealth school

I decided to base my topic around Surveillance In Public Areas, which I am on the affirmative side for.
Whereas, public surveillance could deter individuals from performing actions in public that are frowned upon as they are aware that they are being watched.
Whereas, public surveillance could provide a sense of safety as people know that any potential crimes committed against them would be caught on tape. This could help protect against vandalism or theft.
Whereas, there are people that believe the sense of security provided by cameras outweighs the risk of privacy.
Whereas, video evidence in public areas can be used to back evidence in court cases.
Whereas, video surveillance can show the current condition of a highway whose roads may be slippery or packed with cars, warning those who wish to traverse it.
Therefore, be it resolved by this student congress that surveillance must be mandatory and provided in any public area containing any number of individuals.
