Even Perry Como may not be able to do street photography in today's  
climate.

These "stop immediately" incidents are occurring in many cities,  
towns and malls around the world; irrespective of the age or look of  
the photographer and/or his gear; wether due to actual fear; hyper  
demand for privacy; need to exert power; or any other reason or  
combination of reasons.

Causes and effects have many unique situational properties.
Many variables at work.
