Observing Nature?
Glenn Reynolds has this account of a 21 year old man being arrested after taking a picture of the police in the midst of doing their job.
I have nothing more to expound upon other than to say I might get myself a lawyer after having received a line like this on the nature of my photographic conduct:
"A new law that prohibits people from taking pictures of police with cell phones?" I realize that some legislation in this country has gotten out of hand, but this just seems a little Willy Wonka, try the Schnozzberry ridiculous to me. The man took a picture from his home of something that everyone else could see.
So I can go see Panic! At the Disco in concert, but I can't listen to them on my ipod? What a world it would be if we were not able to publicly enjoy public things.
