Summary: 

In order to fire thru the deflectors one of two conditions must exist:

1)	The deflector sheilds are one way force fields, kind of an 
electronic (gravitic) half-silvered mirror.

2)	As with the spin-dizzy of Cities In Flight New York in flight
the field is not on constantly so that firing thru it means only that your
beam must be synced with the times when the deflector shield/ spin-dizzy field
is not active. It would be assumed also that were the deflectors turned on
constantly the enterprise might find itself blined by its own protective devices
and become a large shiny sphere in the heavens.
