Happy Independence Day; are you anywhere near a refinery?

 “…followed by a BP employee after taking a picture on a public road near the refinery, and then cornered by two police cars at a gas station… had the right to look at the pictures taken near the refinery and if he did not comply he would be ‘taken in’ … released after officials looked through the pictures he had taken and took down his date of birth, Social Security number and other personal information… turned over to the BP security guard who said this was standard procedure…”

Oh, I know, you’re probably standing on public property somewhere in the United States, but what’s in proximity? Are you carrying ID?
