[QUOTE="480sparky, post: 433678, member: 15805"] OMG! Someone took a photo of a school bus. A bus on a public road! How dare they! How dare someone take a photo of public property while it is on public property! [U]Must[/U] be Al Qaeda, scouting out our local bus route infrastructure. Or some pervert planning to kidnap a child. Just think of all the photos and videos that have been taken legally. Like photos and videos taken legally on, oh........... say .........April 15, 2013. Pick a town. Let's choose......... um............. err........... I know! Boston! I want everyone who gets their panties in a bunch about photos and videos taken of public places to think about that date and time for a second. Does it ring a bell? Maybe [U][URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boston_Marathon_bombings"][COLOR=#0000cd]this link[/COLOR][/URL][/U] will help. Now, I'd ask anyone who doesn't think photography and videography should be allowed on public property to think of what would have happened after this incident. The two perpetrators would have gotten off totally scot-free! Yes.... without the massive amount of LEGALLY taken images and videos of the event, the tragedy would be unsolved today.
