I would defend other people's rights as quickly as I would my own. Perhaps I just value my own ideas about what is right, wrong, dangerous, etc. rather than basing it on some system of irrational fear that some people subscribe to. Photographers will always be seen as criminals because of this system. Terrorists and pedophiles and shady characters...while it is so easy for actual criminals to commit crimes while security and police are out chasing recreational artists. It's all part of the illusion that they are doing something to keep us safe while there is no way for them to actually do that without violating more of our rights. I simply relish the uselessness of the whole exercise as a photographic goldmine.


I agree a lot of what the government does to try and protect us from terrorism is useless, dumb and by default limits our freedoms but I don't see how that pertains to a mall owner fulfilling his right to bar photographers from their property and you violating that right. If you invite someone onto your premises don't you feel you have the right to ask them to leave when you want?
