The police who stop photographers think they are more important the other potential targets otherwise they would stop all photographers.
The police claim the police station is sensitive etc. they invariably ask: do you know the current threat level or similar. Things that don't apply to taking photos of kids down the park, which would be a legitimate complaint as opposed to taking photos of a nick, which isn't and is confirmed as such by the NPCC (National Police Chiefs' Council). Oh and "wont you think of the children" is often the cry of those that want to introduce some new prohibition to something that was previously legal but just gets on their goat.
