When it comes to obtaining public records, nobody does it better than Joel and Robert Chandler. Based out of Central Florida, the Chandler brothers have proven to be a thorn in the side of government agencies that refuse to provide public records. Joel, who has been mentioned in countless news articles for his work, runs Fog Watch. Robert runs Raw Dash Cam. They drove down to Miami for my [...]
If you have an hour to kill and don't mind spending it hearing me talking about photography rights, you might want to check out my talk at the 2012 New Hampshire Liberty Forum, which was just posted online. I talk about my experiences running Photography is Not a Crime, including what motivated me to launch it. The trip was a great experience, especially when I visited Keene Monday morning with [...]
I've spent the last few days at the New Hampshire Liberty Forum where I spoke in front of a room full of people Saturday. Several people were recording the talk, including a group working on a documentary movie about activists who promised to send me the video of me, which I will eventually post here for those that are interested. I was also interviewed in person on Free Talk Radio, a first for [...]
Animal rights activist Steve Hindi - who has been threatened, assaulted and arrested over the years for video recording perceived animal rights abusers in Pennsylvania - ventured down to South Carolina where he received a taste of Southern Hospitality from the local sheriff’s office. Hindi and his film crew, collectively known as Showing Animals Respect and Kindness (SHARK), were parked [...]
Pennsylvania photographer Jason Macchioni was taking photographs from a bridge in Elizabethtown the other night for a time-lapsed video, which naturally got the cops thinking he would then try to blow up the bridge or something. One cop, Northwest Regional Police Officer Charles Tobias, pulled up and demanded to know what he was doing, not seeming to understand the terms “time [...]
For more than a week, Miami Herald reporter Paradise Afshar worked on the story about my arrest covering the Occupy Miami eviction. Yet she still failed to provide the answers to some very basic questions, specifically the outcome of my previous arrests. It’s not like I didn’t tell her the outcome of those arrests. I went into great detail, explaining how I was acquitted of all [...]
Unlike the last time when I left the TSA photo policy sitting in my printer before leaving to the airport, I made sure to print out 30 copies in case I had to hand them out to several Transportation Security Administration officials at Miami International Airport as I prepared to board a plane to Boston this morning. It turned out, I didn't even have to pull one out because the first TSA screener [...]
As I prepare my legal battle against the Miami-Dade Police Department for falsely arresting me and for deleting my footage, I am seeking new ways to raise money for my legal defense fund. I recently entered into a business venture with Keith Robertson, a Vancouver man who runs Zap Rag, a company that sells lens cloths and laminated cards with photo laws printed on them. The items are designed to [...]
Relations between Oakland police and the city’s residents have never been good, which is one reason why the department issued body-mounted cameras to its officers last year. The goal was to increase accountability, which is important for a department that is facing a federal takeover this March. However, the above video, which shows several officers with their body-mounted cameras turned off [...]
A hilarious spider prank on an unsuspecting man in what appears to be a univeristy got him all bent out of shape when he realized he was being video recorded. Somebody from a higher level dangled a spider down in front of his face as he was sitting at a table, working on a computer, causing him to have a minor panic attack. Most of us probably would have reacted the same way. Well, most of us [...]
