Wow, I can't believe the response here is lay down and take it???
We people have rights, our natural laws that protect us from harassment from authorities. And it seems a few of us are willing to have our rights trampled for this obscure "terrorism" excuse.
Hitler did the same thing, it was a process that took a couple of years before people started willingly being led to the furnaces.
The Governments are in real trouble, why? because if you actually read about some of the crimes they have committed, and if people realize the fraud they have committed, the people would up-rise and tar/feather them like they did in the old days.
And I believe people are waking up to this and the Government need to take action against a potential up-rising, under a guise of "protecting" us from terrorists.
You think the police are your friends? I'm in Canada where the RCMP themselves dress up in black balaclavas and bust windows in order to make it look like legitimate protesters are anarchists. (Yes they have been caught and charged, as well as charges dropped, due to the fact that RCMP cannot seem to charge their own officers, which the people are trying to change).
And yes, I even have a brother-in-law in the RCMP... boy I bet he is getting a reality check.
Thing is, there should be no reason for this type of police behavior. There are ways to actually pursue to charge this gentleman with the camera, however the Judiciary that they need to gain the warrant from would likely ridicule the officer for wasting his time and the public's money.
A few bad apples within a police force doesn't make the whole force criminals. It's a bit of a stretch going from a policewoman trying to get a photographers name and the association with hitler, goverment abuse and the whole of canada policed by criminals.
I should imagine that your brother in law is a bit shocked, but still confident he is one of the good guys.
My answer to that is - if you want to win a war, fight the right battles
Pie in the Sky - we people [and that is all of us no matter who we are] have responsibilites that provide us with priveleges if we abide by themWe people have rights, our natural laws that protect us from harassment

good old fashioned 'them and us' posturing the curse of mankind throughout its entire existanceThe Governments are in real trouble, why? because if you actually read about some of the crimes they have committed, and if people realize the fraud they have committed, the people would up-rise and tar/feather them like they did in the old days.

I don't know if this is true - but if it is, it only shows that this sort of thing can happen anywhereYou think the police are your friends? I'm in Canada where the RCMP themselves dress up in black balaclavas and bust windows in order to make it look like legitimate protesters are anarchists.

I think Steve is right - 'divide and conquor' goes back a long, long way....

Well the problem is basic, some people don`t mind giving up their
rights and others do. That is basically it.
And if I was a baddy, there are many ways to coverdly film and
take pictures anyway.
And yes, a policejob is hard, it would be a lot easier if in any home
there was CCTV camera's, you know against domestic violence and
other bad stuff, so I advice anyone who gladly give up their rights,
to make such a system in their home and hook it up to you nearest
policestation, you would make the policemens job a lot easier.
(Yes I know you have nothing to hide. )
be aware, not to become a ware.
here's a little something on the general lines of freedom to photograph that might interest you:

I believe one of the most important things you can teach your children, is their "Rights", I don't believe this is taught at all in schools. Rights obviously differ from country to country, but you would be amazed at the amount of people, young or old, who have no clue on what police are allowed to do.
To, me, this would be one of the things needed to be done to preserve our rights, for our children's sake.
(Yes the RCMP Montebello story Video-Here is true and is also featured on CBC, and there is some question about the recent Olympics clash being conducted in the same way, yes there are some good guys and bad apples, however then the provocateur becomes a useful tool and seems to be in constant use, you start to question if this is now authorized standard procedure)
As a single example of the gross over-consideration for potential terrorists, give serious attention to the very recent (Christmas day, 2009) example, when a 4-year old disabled child (born premature, has malformed ankles and low muscle tone in his legs ... was just starting to walk at the time of the incident), was forced by the TSA ([U.S.] Transportation Security Administration) to 1) remove his leg braces, and then 2) "walk" through a metal detector on his own volition, to ensure that he was not a terrorist carrying some detonatable explosive.

What kind of irresponsible torture is this for a diabled child who's headed for his first trip to Disney World?
