edf40wrjww2msgDetail:detailStr fiogf49gjkf0d What are you talking about?
The Orion Kid said that photography on PATH would get me arrested, implying that it was illegal.
I replied that I wouldn't relinquish freedom of speech because a cop ordered me to, implying that photography wasn't illegal.
You stated that photography wasn't covered by freedom of speech, thus denying my premise and implying that photography was illegal.
I argued that photography was covered by freedom of speech, and explicitly stated my previously implied point that photography was not illegal.
You changed the subject to private property, and said that photography wasn't allowed under PATH regulations.
I admitted that photography might be prohibited under PATH regulations, but pointed out it wasn't prohibited by law, and therefore I couldn't be arrested for it, contrary to the first post in this subthread.
You got confused and forgot that we'd ever been talking about the law, even though that was the subject of every post except your last one, and even that left ambiguity as to what you were really talking about.
I reminded you that what the law said had been the topic of discussion right up until what I'll call your "senior moment," and observed that you had spontaneously changed the subject while still acting as though you were continuing the original discussion.
Then you demonstrated extreme confusion and appeared to believe that you had initiated this subthread, and made what looks almost like an attempt to change the subject retroactively and claim the law and never been a topic of discussion when simply clicking back to the initial post in the subthread would reveal that's how it all started.
And then a great hammer came and hit him on the head.
This discussion has been completely straightforward to everyone except you; hopefully you've now figured out the source of your confusion.
