Here's one idea for combatting the "war on decent photographers". Put up a flier at your local proshop, or spread word through your network of friends, post a billet on the board at school, whatever... announce the formation of a loosely organized photographers group. Use it to trade workflow, critique, image trading, and so on, but PARAMOUNT is that you organize get-togethers for streetshooting. Meet once or twice a month and as a group go about your city photographing whatever you wish - hell, pick a subject: tonight, we're photographing public buildings, next week, morgues!
And then do it. And know your rights. And when these bastards start working the sheep into a frenzy over "suspicious characters with image-taking devices want to eat your children" and other crap, you take your group to the polls or you paint signs and as a group you go stand on the street corner for a night, or should they outlaw photographing mailboxes you GO PHOTOGRAPH MAILBOXES - that is called protesting.
And most importantly, BE an American. Know your rights and fight for them.
Keep your powder dry.
