With all this Flash Mobbing going on a crazy idea sprung into my head. Since
there has been instances of Photographers turned away from Stations such as
Kings Cross and the like why dont you organise a Flash Mobbing where loads
of people turn up and take photos and see what the security staff try to do
about it. Just one of my Ideas - what do you Think?

Station Security would probably call the police, who would somehow manage to
find large amounts of backup/Helicopters/riot squad and have everyone
dragged away for terrorist activities/rioting or something silly

They'd bring in a farmer and his collie to round the flash mobbers up like
the sheep they are.

Must be one of the offers you have to send off for - you'd never get it

Hmm, well maybe if it was a crowd of unarmed teenagers with their backs to
him and he had a gun he would have a chance...
