Or maybe a Kiev.

Use less conspicuous gear and improve your surveillance skills so as not too have her take notice that your watching her..Have not been out side since. Don't know what to do.
I recall I was sitting at a cafe in 1982 in Stockholm (I was a guest scientist at EFI) and a large groups of youth came by.. I thought.. finally a bit of action on the streets and they did not need to be drunk first.. the next day in the papers.. The group I saw had just set a disco on fire 'cause "bloody foreigners were dancing with Swedish girls". Living a few years earlier in the south (Lund) I used to have fun with the "Ragere" (Happy days meets Hells Angels).. and lets not forget about the wack bike gangs and large numbers of Neo-Nazis.. despite being nearly comically stupid, for many ethnic groups their violence is real--- and the courts tend to be quite tolerant, just as in much of eastern Europe including eastern parts of Germany, to these forms of violence.N O Mennescio said:Threads like this makes me happy that I live in sweden.

Unpleasant people are everywhere. Fortunately, only a very few are armed with anti-tank weapons.
The Bernalillo County Sheriff's Dept. would respond to the call. They are the straightest, most professional group you can deal with. I would have no hesitation dealing with them. You, are in my estimation, way out of line with your description. The Sheriff, Darren White is a long time law enforcement professional who will not put up with anything less than 100% service to the public. If you have any proof to the contrary as to Sheriff's officers not performing properly, then you need to call him directly.nc5p said:The man who assaulted me. He lives about 300 feet from where I was standing. I am VERY hesitant to call the cops, they are EXTREMELY crooked here and often arrest innocent people while they let drunk drivers, rapists, and murderers off scott free. I try to avoid any contact with them.

That's what I don't understand. You didn't call the police, and you have no witnesses, but you're blasting him here by name. He could hit you with a libel suit.edz said:and what's the relevance of naming your foe? To move the theatre of your conflict and widen the badgering to APUG?
I am certainly NOT ganging up on you. What this guy did amounts to nothing less than a felony. NO ONE has a right - of ANY KIND - to threaten another persons' life ... PERIOD.nc5p said:Why are all you people ganging up on me? I thought I'd find fellowship with other photographers who share a concern on this issue here. Instead, I get blasted for "violating this guy's rights". Everything I said is true. Why are his rights more important than mine? Because he drives a Hummer and $50k custom powerstroke? If you all want to sell your camera gear on ebay and just watch tv and take no more photos go ahead. I'm not stopping you.
