Honestly I'm not even upset. Props for walking outside like that.

Id give this guy a thumbs up and hope he doesn't rage at me.

I am genuinely curious, I don't try to be smug. So please don't get this wrong, but I have to ask: is it legal & OK in the US to take pictures of people w/o their consent?

Outside of using someone's likeness for commercial gain, pretty much anywhere that is public property you can't be stopped from photographing anything you can see. Private property can make their own rules but all they can do is trespass you and kick you out, it's still not illegal. Public photography is generally protected under the first amendment free press.
