ITP Central Station Clock - a photo on Flickriver

ITP Central Station Clock

            This is a shot under the canopy of the Grand Rapids ITP Rapid Central Station. Right after we took this shot a security guard from DK came up and said we could not take pictures under there because we did not have permission. I proceeded to tell him in no uncertain terms that I was a GR resident etc. etc. etc. and I did not need no stinkin permission. That went on for a few sentences and then the guys says he is just doing his job and we said we were Democrats and don't want his job going to China. Something about terrorism was mentioned, my buddy and I must fit the profile for IRA terrorists because I don't think we meet any other profiles. This policy is ridiculous and I bet has more to do about not wanting folks wandering around just taking pictures rather than riding busses. How do they enforce this with actual bus riders with cell phone cameras? 

Anyone else have this problem? The guard was very good about it by the way despite my very critical comments on the policy.
