3. The cop is always right - you should have apologized and moved on

Your attitude is wrong. Cops do get things wrong, and they should be held accountable for their actions. It is like any other customer-facing job: you screw up in front of the customers and you should expect to get an earful from the boss; too many screw-ups and you're fired.

4. The cop made a mistake and did not understand the law

It's his job to understand the law. It's not his job to usurp the powers vested in Congress by the Constitution and start making laws up. Failure in this regard is gross incompetence and cause for dismissal.

5. There is no war on photography

Unfortunately, we have seen before evidence of senior cops misleading their subordinates as to what the law is on photography. This is misconduct in a public office, and they should be prosecuted for this. Until these bad cops end up either out of a job or in jail, they will not stop their war on photography and usurpation of congressional powers.

I know you are an ex-cop and have a natural wagon-circling instinct, but in order to restore the much-damaged dignity of your profession, you most of all should be calling for the uniformed criminals in police departments to be prosecuted for their crimes.
