Spend some time in my world - I know photographers are not usually this emboldened, but I've been harassed a lot over the years, so excuse any perceived lack of tact in this video, this is how things happen when you take pictures of the port and you have to assert your rights right away or they get taken away. The reason I don't play happy customer with the police very much is that they only use any extra info you give them to suspect you of crime in these situations.
In this video, the Police were halfway decent, but there's still a disconnect, port policy cannot contradict DHS own memos which claim photography is not suspicious in itself, I don't see why dispatch should take whatever some butthurt security worker says over the phone as an educated concern, but they always come out no matter what.
Anyways, in the video, an upset guard tells me he's going to call the cops and they will arrest me, of course, he's full of it. At the end he comes close below me and starts yelling and cussing at me, you don't hear that because that's when I hit record on the GoPro. But you see me light him up with my flashlight as I'm concerned what he's planning to do from his dark truck cabin. Enjoy the pictures in the intro !!!
