But he wasn't being "interviewed". The fucking cop asked him why he was taking pictures in the most innocuous, almost jovial way, and the guy's response was "Because i like to and you can't legally stop me"
i guess this is my stumbling block. i can't get past the feeling that these guys were just doing their job (investigating someone at the request of the MTA employee) until the guy decided to obfuscate and be elusive, rather than having a conversation with someone you'd like to be on your side.
Again, they very well may have acted like jerks anyway if the guy had just explained himself, but i don't see why, if you're not doing anything wrong, you have to act this way toward authority figures.
