WASHINGTON — (Trains.com) Secretary of Homeland Security Janet
Napolitano this week suggested citizens should call law enforcement when
they see someone taking a picture of "critical infrastructure."
Photographing rail lines from public property remains perfectly legal,
but Napolitano suggests citizens should call police anyway.
"One of the things we ask people to do is when they see something
unusual, if they see, for example, somebody continually taking
photographs of a piece of critical infrastructure that doesn't seem to
make any sense … to report that to local law enforcement so it can be
followed up on."
