Taking pictures of hotels is terrorism
2600 Magazine reports that an amateur photographer in Denver was busted for taking too many pictures of the cop-zoo surrounding the hotel when Dick Cheney was staying. The cops busted him, seized his camera, called him names and accused him of being a terrorist. Then they refused to turn over his camera or an arrest report when he was released.
