Anti-Chimping League Strikes Again! | New Camera News

Anti-Chimping League Strikes Again! | New Camera News: Local authorities are reporting a rash of attacks on photographers in Key West, Florida in the past week, the third such coordinated attack in as many months by the Anti Chimping League (ACL). Masked ACL operatives descended upon Key West during a beautiful sunset, just the time when many were out with their digital cameras. Victims’ cameras were rudely ripped from their unsuspecting hands by ACL operatives, who then wrote over the rear LCD displays of the cameras with black Sharpie permanent markers. Once the LCD displays were sufficiently covered, ACL operatives returned the cameras to their rightful owners and said, “Don’t be a chimp!” before fleeing the scene. The cameras are still functional but owners can no longer review images on the back of the camera.
