But I know six people who were arrested for walking down the road at night and held for 48 hours before being released with no charges. They were able to claim their belongings a few months later.
In addition to that, two people (one of them included in the above group) were told be security guards that they couldn't photograph a hospital. Reason the guard gave? PATRIOT Act. When the police were called they instructed the two people to delete the photos and hand over the film.
And lastly a friend was told by FBI(?) agents that photographing an oil refinery, from public property, was not allowed.
