That's already happening over here, Mark. I've been stopped and prevented
from taking more photos when I stopped for a few seconds and shot some
clouds from a railway station walkway. Other photographers have been
physically restrained.  As far as I know there's no record of any terrorists
actually using a camera prior to their attacks on innocents. I think that
the only EVIL photographers are the ones with Panasonic and Olympus compacts
;-)

Cheers

they'd rather not have us shooting in the bus terminals or rail way
stations?
