5. Your Own Argument and Opinions

5.Your Own Argument and Opinions. Did you agree or disagree with the rulings.  Provide some authority for your argument such as quotes from the book.

I definitely agree with the answers provided by Kaleb Anderson (my lawyer). He has been firm with the answers he said. Another question that relates to photographing people and places as long as I am standing on public property is where he answered, ‘yes’. ‘If you are standing on public property you are legally allowed to photograph anyone or anything you like, even if your subject is on private property or is a private building. We would of course always encourage you to exercise common sense, be courteous and respectful to others and behave in a sensible and moral way.’ Show the people your not a weirdo photographer but a nice an happy one. Society benefits from ethical behavior.     "Researchers who study happiness find that people expect material goods to make them happier than they actually do. Sure, you enjoy driving that snappy new car home from the dealership, but afterward your happiness quickly returns to its natural base level . . . So what does make people happy in the long run? Good relationships, satisfying work, ties to the community—all available at no additional cost.” (Samuelson, Page 18)When asked by private security staff am I required to give my personal details the answer is, 'no.' 'When stopped by security guards, you are not obliged to provide any personal details. Private security guards do not have any police powers, nor do they have any powers to view or delete images or confiscate equipment unless they call the police if I really do anything inappropriate.' They’ll probably take it as a “misdemeanor, which is a less serious crime, often punishable by a year or less in a county jail. Public drunkenness, driving without a license, and simple possession of a single marijuana cigarette are considered misdemeanors in many states.” If a police asks personal details they should have a ‘reasonable suspicion that you are involved in terrorist activities, they have no powers to take your details, look at your photos or to confiscate your camera. However, failing to cooperate with the police when questioned may lead to a charge of obstruction. Cooperation and politeness are the most efficacious ways of dealing with police enquiries.’(Online)
