Well, Scratch California Off the Vacation List …

Why? Well, in Los Angeles, you can now be arrested for taking photos.

Now I could go on and say that all cops are goons who hate the media. But I know that’s not true – my brother is a police sergeant (not in LA) and he’s a smart, well educated guy who doesn’t make ridiculous snap decisions. Come to think of it, the vast majority of police officers that I know and have worked alongside over the last 25 years are good, smart people.

But there’s a small minority – as there is in any field – who don’t understand things like the U.S. Constitution.

Hmmm … maybe I should go to L.A., cameras in tow, and shoot lots of public buildings. I wouldn’t need a hotel …
