　　Nowadays,for the sake of public safety, security facilities, staffs and policies areoverwhelming in urban areas. In my view, this trend brings more advantages thanthe disadvantages, and my reasons would be explored as below.

　　Apparently,the root cause of increasing crimes and violence in cities is the inadequacy ofpolice supervision, so that installation of security measures in buildings andstreets are an effective preventive means by which the safety of urbanites willbe improved. Firstly, these measures, such as on-patrol police vehicles, canimmediately catch out and stop ongoing illegal activities such as thefts,robberies and vandalism, thus reducing the rate of social crimes in open spacedirectly. Secondly, the universal camera-based monitory system that is 24-houravailable plays a key role of deterrent, which reminds the would-be criminalsthat they have no chance to escape from the supervising of police and thepunishment of justice, no matter when or where they plan to committee a crime.Therefore, these potential law offenders would give up their evil desires. Inaddition to the values of preventing social crimes, the network consisting ofomnipresent cameras and sensors also serves as a function of warners. For example,when there emerges a fire, the security system can provides alarm signals toboth residents inside and firefighters, thus helping to save people’s povertyand lives.

　　However,I have to concede that demerits associated with setting more security devicesshould never be ignored, and the most worrying aspect is that this behaviorviolates the basic rights of citizens. In fact, no matter how useful thesemeasures might be in terms of stopping social crimes, they inevitably offendthe human privacy, because they automatically watch and record every movementand activity of people. Obviously, the strong supervision of police and monitorsystem is very likely to turn the living environment into a jail-like place,where every trip is traced and every private life is peeked. Expectedly, whaturban residents feel is stress, discomfort, degradation of freedom andwell-being, even unpleasure and anger about the government.

　　Inconclusion, I believe it is worthy for a city to set up more security measures.Although there is a concern of freedom and privacy deprivation to some extent,this method can make great contributions to social-crime prevention, as well asa safer living area.(388)
