Ok so i was looking on youtube and find this guys story very interesting and made me think wow. what the F**K. I can't believe he was treated the way he was not can i believe that these officers that detained him did not know what they were talking about. Ok so maybe it was the MTA's policy but for some reason they were misquoting any laws out there. I'm glad this was taken to court and I am glad that this man was brave enough not to turn his camera off. there are 2 parts to the video. The second video isn't much but if you wait to the end he explains what happened when he finally got on the train and how the harassment continues. There is still a lot i need to learn about photography and the "rules". you know etiquette. I just use common sense and my best judgement.
