so i almost got arrested in new york for taking a picture of the brooklyn tunnel
    #7637661 - 11/14/07 10:45 PM (16 years, 2 months ago)

yeah, when i was in NY i was taking a cab back to the train station. during that ride we went through the brooklyn tunnel. when we pulled up to the toll booth i thought that i should snap a few pics, one of the toll sign, and one of the oddly large amount of cameras they seemed to have on the fucking place.

next thing i know, an alarm is literally going off and 2 police officers approach the cab im in with their hands on their pistols in under 5 seconds.

the cabbie starts telling me to hide the camera and lie to the cops, which i figured was a very very bad idea.

so i managed to delete the pics of the tunnel cameras before the cops got there... they went through my camera and made me delete the other pic i had of the tunnel area. they threatened to arrest me, and said that they were required to issue me a summons just for trying to take pictures.

but in the end they let me go...

fucked up country.

That's fucked up... were there signs or any other indication that you can't take pictures? Makes me wonder just how that is illegal... they must be really paranoid around there now.

I think we should all go down to our local law enforcement agency and thank them for doing such a damn fine job.

It's kinda messed up, but I think it is pretty impressive at the same time. The fast response time and all...at least someone is paying attention.

Way too many cry baby pussies over here. I could see all this paranoia if we had terrorist attacks on the frequency of some other countries in the middle east, but I can deal with once ever decade.
