I think a dozen+ random cars getting shot on one stretch of interstate in a week is also pretty preposterous. Don't you?

These aren't cars of people involved in a crime or even a minor conflict. It's just....commuters. Just people driving. That's not ok.
That should probably not be allowed to continue until "eventually" they are caught.

Something has to change, probably by an increase.
More cops?
More cameras?
More rules?

So you're ok with cameras in every room in your house that are monitored by your local police? Bigfan said cameras everywhere.
