Oh, they were both pretty serious...the first one only appears un-serious now that the second one has happened.

maybe they're less frequent over here for this exact reason?
the sacariest part is if they deemed you a terrorist for those actions you could've been held indefinitely or some crazy shit.

I was actually talking to a person about this. He was or is in a position in charge of video surveillance and protection of businesses and roadways.
Setting up cameras, checking on things and yada yada. I asked him if I could get in trouble for taking pictures of our power plants and factories. The ones in my area can be very good pictures. He said no, take all the pictures you want as long as there is no ill content.
It's amazing on the tunnels. You can't go 20 feet without a camera. I think I counted 30+ cameras on the holland tunnel. Thats not even counting the ones leading up to it.
Nomad you still in NY?

yeah, omar really helped me out, gave me a place to crash, and even got me a ticket into the John Butler Trio show!
apparently phil was out there at the same time. i met some cool kids on the train back home that were touring with him.

Oh ok.. so our government can put up cameras everywhere and anywhere they please.. but an American citizen can't take a picture in a public place without fear of being prosecuted.
FUCKING BULLSHIT
I'm pretty sure that goes against everything in the constitution. Not that the constitution hasn't been completely shit on over the past 10 years and is basically a worthless and meaningless piece of hemp now. Freedom my ass. Fuck this country I'm hating it more and more every day.
Yes, the US constitution is written on hemp.. fucking ironic dont ya think?

It is indeed becoming more and more like one every day. They should just call it the Un-united states of prison camp and be done with it.

Oh coming from MR. UK. You can't even own a gun! HA! What about the video cameras you guys have all over the place? You guys are in the same boat, if not before us.
Thing is the cops let him go. They are actually concerned for the well being of the people that live their. That city is vulnerable in many ways, many people live their, it's an island, bridges and tunnels are what connect everyone.
But it know what you mean, it is, though they try to sugar coat it for the idiots to swallow easily.
