Photography banned in downtown Silver Spring
From The New MoCo Progressive:
“This past Tuesday, I went to downtown Silver Spring, had lunch, and then took out my camera and standing on Ellsworth Avenue, I began taking shots of the buildings with the blue sky and clouds as a backdrop. Almost immediately, a security guard approached and told me “there was no picture taking allowed in Downtown Silver Spring.” “What do you mean”, I said, “I am on a city street, in a public place, taking pictures is a right that I have protected by the first amendment.” The guard told me to report to the management office.”
