But if we wanted we could accompany him and make the necessary enquires.

Sorry I don't remember the EXACT words but the above was pretty much what was said.

I'm a pornographer and to be blunt...

I tend not to argue with cops. Even if I am in the right! All that happens is they charge you with something stupid and then it's up to me to PAY an attorney to fix things.

On Freedom of speech/expression issue I would most likely win. But my purse is going to take a hit in the process. I pick a lot of fights over things I believe in... but I think twice if it's going to cost me a single dollar. (I admit to being greedy)
Mmmm.. So basically there was no known offense and the police sure have better stuff to be doing. (Don't think you need to bother about the ravings of a park caretaker or rely on him for legal advice ) A London cop is going to have one of these silly grins on his face for the rest of the day at the prospect of "sexy pictures" in a park - you should have made allowances and taken a polaroid cam along to give em some instant pics

Na... cops are same as anyone else - they are entitled to respect and common courtesy until such time as they may misbehave, - same as anyone else. It does not matter about "pornography" - it's either legal or illegal. If it's legal - nada problems. Only time I've ever told a cop to shut the fuck up was when he behaved like an idiot - otherwise these guys have been good as gold and like their porn same as much any other paysite subscriber.
