walking is not a crime (?)

"Since the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, Americans have been subject to increased government restrictions and scrutiny at airports and elsewhere. That bird-watchers have become a target is somewhat surprising, since all they do is 'walk quietly through the woods . . . '"

Cho, Cynthi H. "Birders Discover They're the Ones Being Watched: Hobbyists find that a walk in the woods isn't easy with anti-terrorism security in place." Los Angeles Times, 5 July 2005.
