Maybe we need to be more assertive. "I have a ticket, and it says nothing
about cameras. If you want to make an issue of it, you can call the police;
I'll call the press, and my lawyer, and the City Licensing Bureau, and my
State Representative, etc., etc." My guess is that they'll cave more often
than not.

you'd guess wrong. they'll tell you to come back without the camera. if
you don't leave, they'll have you removed.
