At some places, such as Stonehenge in England, governments have built high fences to protect it from vandals. There are many different ideas about how to solve the problem of vandalism. Some professors say that if guards keep walking around these places, vandals won’t be able to get in. Some professors say that if they fix more television cameras, they won’t need so many guards.
