Hang on a second. Look at a few things. Innocent? He committed no crime that is true. He did however place himself into a high risk situation filming this show. BTW I’m not a fan of the show I think the idea of putting a camera crew on calls is a disaster just waiting to happen. IOW bad idea to start with. While others near by if they could would be putting as much distance between them and the criminal as possible this guys job was to stay put thus assumed risk on his own part was also a factor. They filmed hundreds of shows over the years and sooner or later the odds were bound to play out.
Gotcha. The cameraman wasn’t innocent - he chose a particular job that put him in direct contact with America’s finest crazed shooters. His fault for being in the same zip code as cops with semiautos. Makes sense. Probably should have shot the guy for even choosing that job.
Silly me. All this time I thought cops were courageous sorts whose mission is to save lives while catching bad guys. Turns out all that has morphed to “shoot like crazy in all directions then go home”.
Should have known better when I watched those idiot cops at Columbine. All armored up, state of the art weaponry, total cowards -meter maids with machineguns.
