Arrested for videotaping at the NFTA bus station in Buffalo NY

I got arrested at the Greyhound bus station in Buffalo, NY on September 12, 2010. As you can see, I did nothing wrong. I think I got arrested for Obstruction of Governmental Administration, Harrassment and Tresspassing. I forget as I was told yesterday that I was going to be charged with 5 different counts and in court it was mentioned that I was arrested for 3. I will correct as I know for sure what it was.UPDATE: It was laughed out of court as I had expected & all 3 charges were dropped. Didn't even need a paid lawyer, great job that guy who defended me in court. Taxpayer money was thrown in the garbage for keeping me overnight, attending to my medical needs as I am diabetic and transporting me to court, ALL FOR NOTHING!

My opinion is that they were on high alert of what happen on 9-11-01. I know you didn't do anything and i didn't see you did. You were in the right.
Dont let no one stop you from filming =)

DONT EVER STOPPING FILMING, SUE THESE PEOPLE, A REASONABLE PERSON LIKE ME HAPPENS TO BE ON YOUR JURY AND I WILL AWARD YOU WHAT EVER YOUR ASKING. THIS IS RIDICULOUS !!

@msobotka : if a person isn't supposed to photograph or videotape in these areas, it's a no-brainer...POST signage saying that it's not allowed. Ordinances vary from city to to city, not everyone is up-to-date, unless it's posted.

@IBMeddling I know, I don't know how many times I have seen loved ones videotaping their friends/family just before they get on the bus to leave Buffalo or vice versa for that matter. It must be mentioned that I was arrested by NFTA and not Buffalo's finest. My guess is, the Judge is going to laugh this case out of court. I should get a copy of the police report.

1st of all, I did spend some jail time, on tax payers expense, of course! Tell it to the judge! He sided with me & all parties at the court proceeding did as well. 2nd of all, I see a ton of people videotaping at airports and bus stations before & after their trip. It's memories shared for a lifetime. 2nd of all, I am Canadian & live in America; the clip was intended to show my kin back in Canada what to expect when they arrive for the 1st time in a new land. Wanna see Tee Oh? Toronto.

Let me get this strait... THEY put cameras everywhere watching you, but the minute YOU film... Never mind, I was trying to think logically here. LOL

@ElGatoLoco698 I probably could sue them but I am not a criminal and don't know criminal law, I do however, know business law. I guess I could say there are no signs posted at all in the terminal for videotaping. I guess it was a slow day. The court didn't even ask me to show them what I videotaped. I am just lucky I didn't get beat up. Some people in this world are so sad...
