This incident is 10 years old. I'm not sure how it might be treated
today. But I do understand the concern. Boston is a huge Liquified
Natural Gas port. There has long been concern that it's a very soft
target for terrorists to attack LNG tankers in the harbor with really
bad consequences.
My advice to Mr. Prigoff today would be to emphasize that he is engaged
in lawful activity, that the guards have no authority to order him away
from the public place he was at and to continue taking his photographs
and give them his business card if he has one.
I hope the ACLU suit is successful but doubt that it will make much
difference to the paranoid.
