Peter King: Police surveillance necessary to avoid terrorist attacks 'whether or not that's politically correct'

Rep. Peter King said Sunday extensive police surveillance is necessary to prevent terrorist attacks like the one this week in Spain, “whether or not that’s politically correct.”

“If somebody is driving a vehicle down the road and they decide to go into a crowd, there’s no way you can stop it,” King said on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures.” “But if you do know in advance they plan on doing that, the idea is to stop them and lock them up before they can do it and that involves one, getting informants within the community, it involves people coming forward and it involves extensive police surveillance.”
