"Are You Taping Me? You're Recording?" #FirstAmendmentRights 📷📱🇺🇸

This audit takes place in from of multiple locations as I was strolling down the sidewalk with my cameras. The first location was a jewelry store that was just opening for the day . The security guard seemed knowledgeable of my photography rights, however the merchant was a bit more cautious as he was concerned I might be casing the property as he mentioned there had been a smash & grab that took place in the past. I then moved further down the street & came upon a Chase bank & eventually a Bank of America . @ public safety security guards who were on bike patrol made contact with me outside the Chase bank soon after an employee came outside asking why I was recording the bank. One of the public safety guards went inside & what appeared to be him explaining to the bank employees that I was within my rights to record. While I was documenting a little later on outside the B of A , I didn't have any contact from anyone at this location , however police were dispatched on scene making an appearance to see if I was okay. #FirstAmendmentAudit #PublicPhotography #1AAudit #SouthernCalifornia
