    I’m growing wary of reading these stories. What, do the police really believe that the terrorists are out in the open, snapping away with their Nikons?

    It’s also rather mind-boggling that police and security guards are not CLEAR on the rules of public photography. Everyone seems to just set their own rules and policies.

    [...] Photography is not a crime | Photodoto Huge overreaction on the part of local cops. Telling people that photographing a public space is illegal. (tags: photography police stupid) [...]

    Well, police and security guards rules and policies to make it clear and let everyone esp photographers make aware of.

    It’s a bit of a joke tbh, what qualifications in law do the police have anyway as a general rule? That’s right, none…
