I am fully aware that crimes are still commited with hoodies and crash helmets ,like street muggings ,we can never stop this but what we can do is minimalize the opportunities criminals have .We also have to concider places were facial recognition is vital like at airports ,is the person entering /leaving the country realy who it says on the passport?
