Unfortunately the cameras I see in our area are inaccessible. They must have learned from the Brits.

I've often wondered what it would take to destroy one of those cameras. Unfortunately most of them are in intersections with police cameras monitoring the roadway so you can't sneak up on them.

I wonder what would happen if you shined a green laser into the camera optics. (One of those green laser pointers that can melt a styrofoam cup, I mean.) Of course, it'd only have a chance to do anything if the shutter happened to be open.

Smearing Vaseline or paint over the glass has always been the easiest way to disable them, but if you wanted to do permanent damage, some gasoline and Styrofoam would do the job to make a flammable gel.
