(Video) Cop Accuses Photographer Of Being An Al-Qaeda Terrorist

by Ashley Jones Guerrilla Media Network

LA California- Professional Photographer Shawn Nee a Los-Angeles resident was taking pictures of the LA metro rail station on October 31 2009 minding his own business when all of a sudden he was approached by a paranoid officer Gylfie, who then unlawfully  detained Mr Nee because he thought that Mr.Nee looked suspicious, because he was taking photo’s of the LA metro rail station which incidentally,is not a crime. 

This was all captured on video by Mr Nee’s cellphone where you can view the entire unlawful detention here.

Some of the absolutely insane statements that officer Gylfie says are:

“You’re not getting’ it,” Gylfie huffily responded. “This is a terrorist target.”

“It’s still not illegal,” Nee pointed out.

“Did I say it was illegal?” Gylfie rejoined. “It’s against MTA rules” – a claim that was flatly untrue, since the Metro Guidelines allow photography in public places.

When Nee pointed out that as a photographer’s rights advocate he knew the rules, Gylfie demanded ID.

“Al-Qaeda would love to buy your pictures, so I want to know if you are in cahoots with al-Qaeda to sell your pictures to them for terrorist purposes,” Gylfie declared, provoking an incredulous snicker from Nee. “That’s a crime. You understand?”

“If you’re down here taking pictures and selling them to al-Qaeda so they can blow up our subway system I’ve got a problem with that,” declared Gylfie after ordering Nee to sit on the ground.

If after watching this video you still don’t see how the police are using the threat of terrorism to justify violating the American peoples rights, than you are part of the reason why our country is now a Police State.
