what a load of b.s.

It’s just a silly staged pseudo event for gullible media.

Hmmm they are wearing that “getup”,because they are targets of armed criminals.

It is not exactly fair to approach Law enforcement like that.

The difference between that pic and the one of Tank Man is that in Tianenman Square, you didn't have a sidewalk lined with people in the background recording the encounter with their cell phones.

Yeah, yeah. I know cell phones weren't around back then but you know what I'm sayin'.

Hoping to win the riot lottery, didn’t happen. She will have to make her money from interviews. Or trademarking the eventual statue.

The one officer is holding her hand. They were there to protect her as well as the rest of the public.

The comparison to Tank Man is repugnant and stupid.

She wasn’t the one in danger, it was the cops and whites who were in danger.

Looks like the Slimes has decided yellow journalism is the way to go in order to stay solvent.

19 I always preferred the uncropped original photo ...


Sin Wai-keung, 52, newspaper editor and former news photographer, poses in front of a projection of a photograph he took in Beijing in 1989, in Hong Kong May 22. Sin's photo shows a man standing in front of a column of tanks in Beijing on the morning of June 5, 1989. Recalling the moment he took the photo, Sin said, "Most important, it got photographed. I didn't think about the danger, or whether it would become an iconic image, as the news was still going on." Sin further said, "I believe there will be more important images on June 4th to surface in the future which fully describe the event." (Bobby Yip /Reuters) #

Didn’t Tank Man end up being run over and squished by the tank?
