SO... if rioters had broken into a home and were holding your family hostage... and the cops were outside discussing plans to save your family...would you want a news crew videoing the discussion live onto the internet so that the rioters with smartphones could listen in on the police plans and watch their movements ?
In all the other news videos coming out of Ferguson, when it became dangerous or when asked by police to leave, they did. The cops didn't have to shoot tear gas at those crews.
I’m convinced that any interaction I have with LE in the future will be tyrannical in nature. That having been said; in this case, they were obviously being very careful with the equipment, and were probably acting to protect these (scum sucking arrab) reporters.
Al Jazeera - Embrace the suck.
On the thread that was locked for this one, the point was made that the cops, many being Iraq/Afghan vets may have give a little extra energy (my term) when they saw it was an Al-Jaz crew.
LOL - I didn’t know that! Well, at least we know whose side the cops in Ferguson are on in the war on terror. And it’s NOT OBAMA’S!
This is kinda like watching your mother in law drive over a cliff,,,,,
in your new cadillac,,,, Yes!,,, uhh no,,, hmmm yeah maybe.. uhh
The protesters post about being videoed by various news agencies and say they hope it’ll be on CNN etc.
It’s there day in “film”!!! Star for the moment.
“The cops were going after anyone with a camera.”
In the LA riots, it was the lights the cops did not like. Light up a streetcorner, and soon there are 80 people, then 120...

This is one reason the cops want the news crews out- veery easy targets.
And Huff Po too, wasn’t it?
Al Jazeera is not a “news crew.” They’re a pack of neo Nazis, spewing out lies and propaganda. Last week the Israelis shot at these pack of dogs. Even the Arabs shoot and kill these snakes.
News crew my butt.
