I couldn't help but laugh at this. Exactly what sort of photograph could "pose a threat to public safety"? Is he going to create a large print and give people big paper cuts with it?"BP Security followed the industry practice that is required by federal law. The photographer was released with his photographs after those photos were viewed by a representative of the Joint Terrorism Task Force who determined that the photographer's actions did not pose a threat to public safety."
This is:I don't really see what the major concern is.
Police and people in positions of authority are making up "laws" on-the-spot, purely to suit their own vested interests. People ignorant and oblivious of the law oblige, simply because they are unwitting. Eventually, this will become widely accepted as law, even though it's not, and we'll be in police state before we know it. Frog-in-boiling-water situation.This dude was on public property. If this report is accurate, he was unlawfully detained. Neither the police nor BP had any right to view his pictures. Only a court order can force that.
Even that hardly means anything anymore:Camera equipment cannot be taken unless you're arrested and then it's taken into evidence.
