Clangers?

Clangers taking offence at us lobbing so much hardware into "their" orbit.

@ The Original Ash

Sorry, but if he's in a public space, the officer doesn't get to choose whether or not he "allows" himself to be photographed, in the same way that you or I don't get to choose whether we are filmed by CCTV or not.

You try using that same "Don't take a picture of me, you're compromising my safety" line with a FIT team and see how far you get.

"I don't do things Police Officers ask me not to do out of respect for the job," - regardless of them not necessarily having the legal power to tell you what to do?

"and I've no reason not to respect them as I've had nothing but good experiences." Not a black kid in living in an inner city then??
