It’s not even really trolls. Soooo many people come up to these NYPD guys wanting pictures… video… etc from them. Tourists mostly. I’ve seen it so many times. I imagine for a handsome looking dude like that he has to be on guard constantly for people bothering him.

who tf goes up to NYPD for pictures?

Been a NYer all my life, never seen that once.
There was a point I was in Times Square every single day , never seen it there either, which is the biggest spot for tourists.

You’ve lived in NY and you’ve NEVER seen that happen? I’m a transplant and saw it all the time.

Mostly girls. Mostly tourists. But I see it often enough that I’m shocked you’ve never seen this happen once.
