US Patriot Act says they can do ANYTHING within reason!

Yes. It's totally legal. Usually this is to prevent/prosecute shoplifting. But, in this case it could be used to prevent other crime as well.

the Patriot Act doesnt govern how a private business surveys their facility, but nice try....

Correct... that "right" was available long before the Patriot Act was even invisioned.

Nothing new here... I've seen cameras in stores since long before 9/11 and the Patriot Act.

Yeh, anything that another person next to you in the store could see or hear is fair game.

This was a test, after 1.5 years of Criminal Justice classes, trust me, I know the Patriot Act better than I know the back of my hand!

I have no problem with cameras we need them.But the listening audio is another thing I do not agree with.I just cannot talk for 8 hours.
