You have to listen to cops...

Not necessarily. There's the basics, of course; never consent to searches, stand up for your rights, etc, but even then, there's limits on what cops are allowed to do. Nowadays, my standard response to a cop who has a problem with photography is to ask outright: "I plan on continuing to take photos. Will I be arrested if I do this?" If they say "no," I'm free to keep clicking. If they say "yes," I have a direct confession of illegal coercion to take to the CCRB— straight from the horse's pig's mouth. I haven't had occasion to use this policy yet, though, since I only thought of it as something I should have done with the last power-abusing nitwit cop.
