It is frustrating. I can't believe a memo has not been distributed telling officers to lay off the photo buffs.

The NYCLU currently has a lawsuit pending against the NYPD to force them to do just that. The NYPD and Mayor Bloomberg are outright refusing to issue the memo. They have been repeatedly put on notice by the NYCLU that there is a serious problem between photographers and cops.

I suspect it is because they really do support what the cops are doing in the field. The administration gets to give lip service to the photo rights and other freedoms while at the same time unleashing its police force to attack those freedoms virtually unchallenged.
