Detainment at ALC8 VA
Thread started by marino at 06.8.09 - 6:43 am

I'm making a new thread for this.

what happened? one or two of the cops decided to be dicks and cuff then lecture harry and brad who were rightfully questioning why we had to leave and why we couldnt walk around. we had all come to support our team just like everyone else at the event and they told us to get out. they then made gary delete all his photos from his camera when he showed up and decided to document the debacle. in the end it seemed like it was just one or two cops being pricks.

Larson's account of what happened is correct. I can add this though....The sidewalk had lots of people walking to the ceremony so I simply asked why we couldn't walk on the sidewalk with the rest of them. The Sargent said to leave....I started filming him and asked for his name and badge number. He twisted my arm up around my head 3 times and took my video camera and a few minutes later deleted the video of him. Not sure if anyone here has had their arm twisted like that....i kept telling him he was going to break my arm. The arm is not supposed to be twisted in that manner. It hurts a lot to lift it over my head and my wrist is in pain too. I was told I was detained for "filming on federal property." I went to file various complaints against 2 of the officers at the V.A. today but have to go back when the Chief is there. The Watch Commander on duty was the one who cuffed me...talk about uncomfortable situations.... I asked to be uncuffed and a late arriving officer had me uncuffed.

If you were there and didn't receive an email from me this morning, please send me your email address.

Don't ever let a cop to delete pictures off your camera.
Even if they threaten to confiscate it.
They don't have a right to delete your pictures or confiscate your camera. EVER.

It's within your first amendment rights to record anything your eyes can see.

They can't tell you "DON'T TAKE PICTURES" any more than they can tell you "DON'T LOOK" or "ERASE YOUR MEMORIES".

Don't touch the memory chips when you are forced to "DELETE" the pics/vids. Start using another chip immediately. You can recover "deleted" data off of anything as long as you write over it, even if you do, with a little hack-hack-ery, you can recover almost anything.

Fuck the police! They were prob just mad cause the number of fit cyclists outnumbered their fat asses, so they were extra apprehensive. It's always like that. Someone from the bike in movie last night told me TV man was at this event. Anyone know if he got arrested?

As I understand it, no one was arrested, but several people were detained, my self included. I was shooting crowd shots of the ceremony when I got word the police were harassing people, and as my instinct I immediately hopped on my bike, camera still in hand, to get photos of what was going on. When I showed up barley and limefly were on the curb detained by police, and I started shooting photos from the other side of the street. Then a security guy I think it was, alerted police, and these were federal police, that I was one of "them".

Then Meghan watched as I was rounded up. I was instructed to delete the photos I took, and I denied the request saying I had a right to take the photos. Then the officer asked for my ID and then told me I was on federal land, and that I was taking illegal photography on federal property, and apparently taking photos of the ALC ceremonies was okay, but taking photos of anything they don't me to is not okay. Not being well versed on differences in photography rights on federal property I eventually complied and deleted the photos of the detainment I had captured, not really in the mood to push it, and I didn't have any especially incriminating photos as I showed up later. This was my first time being detained for photography, and I know my rights on public land, but I need to do some homework on federal regulation of photography.

It's really unfortunate what a bunch of dicks the VA center security are, apparently holding a grudge against us for having too much fun last year and calling the cops immediately. But I want to thank everyone who showed, I think it meant a lot to the team to see every one cruise in with music and show the love even if only short lived.

A friend of mine was in new york. and he was taking pictures in the subway station. and i guess cops stopped him and told him he couldnt take pictures in there because of terrorists. they can pull off alot more stuff with homeland security act. it is probably the same reason that they say terrorists could use pictures to plot an attack

Don't listen to Marino. He probably has stock in this company and working on retiring to some Greek island to live the rest of days eating meze and drinking ouzo till he's too fat to get outa bed.

There's plenty of free stuff out there to try and crap load of forums dedicated to retrieving files. Couple of sites to get you started, wikipedia.org/wiki/Undeletion, wikipedia.org/wiki/PhotoRec

Regarding the heavy handed security at the VA, I don't see why this organization even have the ending here. Seems to me that a park setting would be alot nicer. There could be more of a city wide participation if it was at a park too. This could include bands, vendors, more of an awareness for everyone, and a day long celebration instead of some stage set up on an asphalt parking lot. I know the organizers can do alot better than this!

Veterans Affairs Police=More pork-barrel, money hole spending to drive over-accumulated tax dollars into.

It just baffles me to see that every, separate level of the federal and even, state government has to have its own police force for every, miniscule property they hold a finger over.
Whatever happened to just having simple, federal property police that acted under one, specific set of guidelines in pertinence to dealing with issues like the ones presented in this scenario?

Truth is, the government is too fucking big and if money is to be saved, the obvious cuts are right in front of our faces.

As Dale Gribble will always say, "Guns don't kill people, the Government does."

Actually, at present, it sounds like South Korea. The current president had the former president killed, then attempted to make it look like a suicide (in collaboration with a number of press agencies). Current prez has outlawed any public mourning for former prez. Candles in public have been outlawed. Protests in front of the Seoul police dept. have been made illegal, hordes of stick-wielding police roam central Seoul, beating and arresting anyone they desire. South Koreans want current prez gone or dead.
