If I'm not mistaken, it looks like he's posing! The officer on the far right looks like he's ready to bust some heads though. Definitely avoid that one. ...well, avoid him from now on.

Punk cops break they law every day and get away with it. THE ONLY DEFENSE ONE HAS AGAINST THE LAWBREAKING CRIMINALS IN UNIFORM IS SOME KIND OF RECORD, some call that a photograph. In case you are too idiotic to know, cops dont turn themselves in when they break the law, that is why we have cameras. Taking pictures of police or anyone else on the street is no crime. Jorge,

The police are, as previously stated, public servants. Meaning that their primary purpose is to serve the public. I don't believe that arresting photographers for taking pictures qualifies as serving.

The US has higher standards than many other countries, and we have the right to expect that the well-trained and dedicated civil servants not act like jackbooted thugs. (Although, alas, such expectations are all too frequently too much for some of the well-trained and dedicated civil servants.) Thank you, Mr. Obvious. Yup.

I have a new found respect for you. Maybe we should all appreciate the good ol US of A! One more question for you Momoko, what would happen if someone took a picture of a policeman in that country your are speaking of? What would happen if that officer did not want his photo taken? hmmmmmm. Thank you Momoko!
