Student Photographer Meets Big BrotherThe Patriot Act pisses me off. It's completely asinine to me that a student photographer, working on a college photojournalism project, could get harassed this much (graphical version) for photographing public property. He's documented very well the dealings and harassment he had to put up with, all in the name of the Patriot Act. It didn't help that he isn't the white guy that law enforcement would just leave alone. He has a blog detailing more about the story as well. 4 CommentsAaron said on 07/16/04 @ 03:22 AM:Didn't understand why THEY were making such a fuss about it all until I saw the guys picture on the last page. The title of his blog further accentuates the unfortunate "fact" that Brown Equals Terrorist. Brian said on 07/18/04 @ 09:05 AM: Just another example of the authorities abuse of power with the patriot act. If I was this guy, I would file suit and force it to the public eye. Possibly try to get the story on CNN. Cameron said on 07/18/04 @ 09:33 AM: this is just another reason why we all need to vote. like muscles, you must exercise your right, or it will go away. our constitution is eroding, and we must tell the government that WE DO NOT SILENTLY ACQUIESCE. remember that just 100 years ago, half the population fought for the right to be able to vote. Christopher Foster said on 02/21/05 @ 07:09 AM: Any student photographer looking to take some picturs for any up comming project you could use me. All I want is some of the pics. so let me know I am into Fashion/prints. send me an E-mail thanks Post a comment |
