Or a tourist. Or a soccer mom about to document her child's greatness. Plenty of people did carry cameras -- just not every day, every hour. Now you probably have one with you, on your cellphone, even if you haven't figured out how to make it work. “He was either a pro or a serious amateur….”

Fuggem. There are NOT any "Good" Cops anymore. IF THERE WERE the so-called "good" ones would be turning in their Brothers in Blue who routinely violate citizens rights and mistreat the citizenry (steal their personal property -oftentimes drugs along with expensive jewelry, eletronic devices of all kinds etc. [they seem to think if it's owned or in the possession of a formerly convicted felon it is "open season" and their (the cop's) right to take it because of all the bad things they have to experience as a PART OF THEIR JOB! When's the last time you heard of a copy arresting and turning in a colleague (unless, of course, it is a high profile or viral case and they need to cover their YKWs)? If the so-called "good" cops are in fact "good", why aren't more bad cops being put in prison for crimes against the people? I used to try to not block all LEO in the "BAD" barrel but facts just won't allow it. Yes, I have become a cop hater but I am not YET a felon. Worst law trouble I've ever had is a traffic ticket now and then and in my profession you really can't avoid that. Especially when the city, county or State decides they need more revenue to waster or give to their cronies. I had a wayward son and learned a lot during the several years it took for them to get him put away. They violated so many of his supposed rights and so many of their own laws during the process that it has soured me on the entire so-called "justice" system. Hell, the judges are as corrupt - and oftentimes MORE CORRUPT - than those charged and brought before them. Yes, I intend to enjoy certain aspects of the upcoming armed insurrection and guess where most of my anger and frustration will be directed. If the SHTF they would be well advised to turn in their badges because I'm NOT the only American that feels this way. There are millions of us and we're PISSED! Who gives a crap if the Cops bristle.

For instance, Miller was one of the only ones to initially report on an absurd case in which a photographer was arrested for taking photographs of Amtrak trains — for an Amtrak photograph contest. As one can probably guess, many of Miller’s blog posts are based on similarly bizarre Kafkaesque situations. After he highlighted the story, the photographer in question appeared on the Colbert Report and the charges were swiftly dropped.
