Know your rights.
Don’t be unnecessarily confrontational, but don’t be a
doormat either. Private security are NOT the police.
Have them call the police if you can’t come to
agreement and they attempt to detain you.
NEVER give anyone your camera. NEVER give anyone
your video. But give the police “the disk from your
camera” if they ask - Use The Cloud or your pocket.
