Yeah I thought that too and looking at the expression of the non-uniformed man next to him it doesindeed look like that could be true. However, shouting and gurning to Photographers is not exactly tactful behaviour given the situation and more like to provoke a negative response that a bunch of prats with cameras looking for that Front Page shot, it also shows the lack of control the Police have in securing the area.

nah, I get that,but I'd rather they were concentrating on the task at hand,
rather thatn thinking about what they look like in front of a cameraman.
although you can't guarantee impartiality from all police officers all the time either, so I'd defend the press in their right to take the pictures too.
again, it's going to be down to how the humans involved respond to the moral necessities at the time; although external pressures like "getting the scoop" sometimes outweight morality in the case of the press, occasionaly the police murder black people. it's swings and roundabouts.
/note sarcasm in the above statement ;D
