Rick,
I agree 100%. In some cases it is legal to punch a camera man in the nose. My point is this a camera can turn a gentleman into a beast pdq (pretty damn quick). That was what happened in my situation.
I will never forget the look on her face when my 8 year old daughter said " Daddy were you going to beat that man up? " The guy was about as big as Arizona Mike. Others reported to me he was taking pictures of my kids. These others were recently released felons and I was reflecting on their credibilty. When I looked at him he had a camera in one hand and a camera case in the other. When I picked him up by the collar he swore to God he wasn't taking pictures of my kids. Something that holds a lot of sway with me. He littered the beach with the film from his camera. The only good reason for littering. He ran up mofo hill pdq.
Perhaps we should reread nude beach ettiquit ?
