Hello, everyone. I would like to share a little story of my own, about how I was harrassed by rangers, at the beach in Malibu.
We were in the shade of a palm tree and other bushes around it, with my girlfriend, taking pictures of each other(wearing tunics and surrongs). Also I was taking shots of different birds of the lagoon and ocean side.
2 rangers came close to us, and start asking, what kind of pictures we were taking, and why we were taking them. Then, one of them was demanding my camera, and asked me to show him pictures I just took. And if I refuse, he would take my camera away.We were shoked and confuse, and scared, and I had to show him my privet pictures. I felt harrassed, so did my friend. But we did not know our rights, and couldn't argue with them. I still don't understand the reason, they acted that way.
If there anything, we could do about this harrasment?
G.M.

Part 2. So now when I'm filming they want to walk up close to me, so that they can give me a Felony for audio recording. I am disconnecting my mic on my cam to avoid problems when they confiscate my cam. I will keep you posted....I live in Boynton Beach, but the police that I have a problem with are the Ocean Ridge Police that is on the island 2 miles from my house. They only have one stop light to bust people and now, I'm going to stop the frivolous tickets issued to cyclists. Wish me luck. They are really mad!

Hi, Carlos. I was riding my bike on a bike path and the light turned yellow as i was slowly passing under the traffic light. It turned red in 3 seconds as i was turning left onto a perpendicular road. The police wrote me a ticket for having my headphones on $100 and running a red light $200 and I pleaded that the light turned faster than i could get through the light. He gave me a ticket anyway. So every day since then I have been filming this intersection, and other bikes. The police are highly annoyed and took my camera stating that I can't record police with audio. I laughed because the camera didn't have a tape.......LMAO Now they are telling me that I will be getting a resisting arrest charge because I gave only my middle name (that I go by) and my last name. The officer never told me to give my full name, and I complied by giving my correct address, correct D.O.B. They are so pissed off that 3 days after my incident a new charge for resisting is being filed.

http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-245403 A witness for the "goth" community accounts for media prejudice in her interview over the Columbine Incident, citing without clear understanding that such actions are a form of genocide and criminal under International law regardless of contracts or agreements of editing a segment for use. The tragedy is that the witness does not feel entitled to express outrage at the abuse of her good name to present false information and endorse a nationwide crackdown on an ethnic group or religious minority. That is the problem, not the crime itself. We must be the cure and remind this generation: resistance is our obligation and our birthright.

Hey Carlos,

I'm a victim of the Klamath Falls City Police, in Klamath Falls, Oregon. I stepped in and held ground, while Joel Loudermilk was aiming a taser on my son and his 2 year old son. Then another cop Chris Zupan, assualted me causing injury to my hand, hip and back. When I called 911 to report the assualt John C. Hann a Sgt. Refused to take the assualt report. He threaten me with obstructing justice. No arrests have been made.

Hi Carlos, I too am a victim of a police agency playing storm-troopers..I guess I was fortunate that the state became outraged over my incident and dropped the charges. But many like you arent so lucky. Average citizens like us become Pirihas (spelling) for speaking out on unruly and abusive behavor of LEO..but hey I'll take the hits ..what else can they do to me right? The public has to reign in the Police Unions..they are well funded by (you and Me) and protect even the worst of the worst...good luck

I respect what you're doing Carlos, don't give up on what you believe in - these idiots disrespect you and become police officers because they're bullies, show them they can't get away with it - they're bottom feeders, and exactly what's holding our society back.

Keep it up-- I am with you...

Corruption is everywhere! Keep up the good work!
