1. There have been attempts to control photography and the media at some encampments |
|
Its illegal and sullies our movement. Some people really do not want to hear that, even at GAs.

3. I expect it from the cops, which is when I get out my serious camera, I use a body camera as well |
|
Something more than a pocket cam or cell phone seems to bring out the fascist in some people.

5. I see it all the time, it should be unacceptable from anybody |
|
Already had someone get in my face about my camera today. When I stood up and got close to him, he backed off. I think he is new here.

7. There are any number of useful documents to carry for photography |
|
There is the settlement that says it is legal to photograph Federal buildings that is also quite useful to have handy.
Peruse www.carlosmiller.com AKA Photography Is Not A Crime (PINAC) when you have some time. Lots of stories and links to good references and carry along material.
