Thinking Self Defense & Security:

May I muse a little about my chosen 'family motto'  ..

 "NEVER DELEGATE YOUR PERSONAL SECURITY TO ANYONE ELSE."

"They" have just announced here in NZ that the Christchurch mosques will be installing "Artificial Intelligence Cameras" following the awful killings.

 - There are also questions of why only 3 Million of the donated 10 Million dollars has been passed-on for the well being of those effected by the shootings and the victims families.

These computer-linked camera systems from Texas company Athena will correctly identify an object such as a gun - 99% of the time - announcing to the attacker that it has done so - and notifying a police call center. Athena describe their system as "Your Virtual Watch Guard"

New Zealand Police claim they responded to this years Central Christchurch emergency that resulted in 51 tragic deaths - in six minutes.

Presumably anywhere these smart cameras are installed .. if an actual armed Law Enforcement Officer, Imam or security guard enters the building the camera alarms will be activated .. perhaps the camera AI might be pre-loaded with facial recognition?

Can a camera STOP one such attack? .. or any other such as a suicide bomber, truck bomb etc?

Section Four of The NZ Police Arms Code currently says:

Self-defence is not a valid reason to possess firearms. The law does not permit the possession of firearms "in anticipation that a firearm may need to be used in self-defence.
"Contact your local Citizens Advice Bureau or City or District Council for advice on how to defend yourself. They can advise you of self defence courses or groups in your area."

- Good advice should always be welcomed by the thoughtful - but why then do some of our DPS and airport police themselves routinely carry firearms? .. such as the now BANNED military styled M4A3 semi-auto rifles and the Glock 17 pistols?
