BTW, if someone's getting arrested for taking pictures in public places where there are no such signs as I describe, then they're doing so in a jackbooted police state, where the police are appointed judge jury and executioner and transgressers are shot in the middle of the street, in broad daylight, in front of their families. I don't know of any places like that.
Oh, and: my house, my fucking rules. You don't like, go round.
I'm sure he would say the same about you - let's lock up all ACs who say anything against our Gloriously Free nation of Pakistan! Why are you even allowed to fly out of the US? You're on a PK no-fly list!
actually it's based in Common Law, an English invention. Common Law=Common Sense. It's unlawful to rob, rape or kill someone. Common sense, you don't need ten million lines of Statute to tell you that, it's fairly simple. Trespass is pretty much the same thing, only it requires Statute to differentiate between outright walking across someone's lawn trespass (Common Law), and being previously invited through nature of land use to being unwelcome because you violated behavioural protocols trespass. Like, taking photographs inside someone's shopping mall when there are signs on the entrance prohibiting such activity or cutting across someone's bedroom with a loaded shotgun (which actually falls under armed trespass - which carries a ten year sentence over here).
if someone comes to my home and does something I deem inappropriate, I'll give them three seconds to leave. Then I treat them as a trespasser (ie, I don't wait for the police, I will put them on the floor right then and there - and *then* call the police).
Remember: when seconds count, the police are "only minutes away". Also remember: the police are not there to protect you. That is not their job. That is not their responsibility. That is your responsibility. Their public responsibility is to make sure that State Revenue Collectors (ie YOU) are not deprived of tools of trade (your PROPERTY) with which you may continue to collect revenue for the State (consume, and pay 20% VAT on everything you buy).
whatever a mall cop says is the law he should be able to back up with the same words on headed paper, and he should be able to quote it from memory. Otherwise, he's committing FRAUD.
sorry, it is still private property and the property owner or his guardian can still prevent you by decree or by force from traversing its halls, and there is fuck all you can do about it.
That's it. It is LAWFUL to take stills, video and audio everywhere else. Where it is prohibited beyond that is down to HOUSE RULES on PRIVATE PROPERTY to which the public have access (ie a shopping mall), and which should be PROMINENTLY INDICATED AT THE ENTRANCE.

mod parent up, that's just too damn funny! Extra karma for a Groening reference. Oh, shame, you posted AC! :D
probably trying to avoid the storm surge...
No worries, Wall Street is replete with bailout packages. If you're a bank.
As long as the hardware can provably outlast a spinning HDD, I'd be more than happy.
common sense approach to ensuring your longevity.
This. I had this down pat with my Kodak Brownie 110 in 1982! Fuck's sake...!
happened just normal social fucking interaction??
word of advice: don't be walking on my property.
yes, that's why they call it "common sense". o.0

I thought I'd pick a group that didn't seem to be in need of PC protection... looks like I was wrong lol

You might not be given the choice if you're suddenly on a list somewhere....
Mexicans, the Dutch and a Kenyan.
Arrest, from the French, "arrêté", to stop.
if you don't agree with the house rules, you are free to use the sidewalk outside and WALK AROUND.

in which case obvious signs should be in place at the entrance quoting chapter and verse of local Statute.

I said not by force, not or by force, my submit finger's too fast today.

ok. IT IS NOT UNLAWFUL TO TAKE PICTURES EXCEPT:
- on a military facility.
That's it. It is LAWFUL to take stills, video and audio everywhere else. Where it is prohibited beyond that is down to HOUSE RULES on PRIVATE PROPERTY to which the public have access (ie a shopping mall), and which should be PROMINENTLY INDICATED AT THE ENTRANCE.
or else what?
Here's an idea:
STOP KILLING BROWN PEOPLE!!
It kinda pisses them off, yanno?
