It’s no secret that photographers are sometimes treated as criminals for doing nothing more than taking pictures. This video will make you laugh, as well as make photographer criminalization look pretty stupid.
It’s about Duane Kerzik, who was arrested for taking pictures at Penn station. For their photo contest no less. I’m glad I’m not on the PR team for Amtrak, because it looks like their on a one way rail to stupidity. I could say more, but instead, just watch the video.
Update: Sorry to our non US readers. I realized that this Hulu video is not available outside the US. Hopefully it will show up on other sites soon… Gav
Shame the video stream is not available outside of the UK but we are seeing just the same kind of issues over here. The police are being given mixed instruction to be fair, but it is getting a bit out of hand.
Sorry Kevin I didn’t think of that. Hopefully we can find it on another site to link to that will work outside the Really dumb of Hulu to do that… Gav
Solution to the problem….
All owners of cell phones with cameras should be placed on the terrorist watch list. That might level the playing field with DSLR owners.
Take care.
Unfortunately we can’t see it in the UK.
The website says the video is only viewable in the States
Video isn’t hosted anymore 🙁
