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.

Give it a rest.

He chose a job that took him out on the streets.

He could have used his skills photographing puppies and
kittens———very safe.

Look the PD involved and basically all PD's involved in filming of that show break a basic long standing on scene protocol by letting the camera crews in to start with. In an unsure situation even Fire Dept and Paramedics are required to stage away from the scene {often several blocks away} in a safe area until told safe to enter.

Reality show film crews push it to the limit safety wise whether it's cop shows or Deadliest Catch. If that show stays on {I like it BTW} sooner or later they are going to loose a cameraman overboard and a likelihood of death. Should we hang the Captain when that happens? No. The workers took a job with risk of injury or death.

Yukon Men was on last night. Stan the guy from Boston was on a dog sled and it busted through the ice into the river. Stan used his dog team he had trained to safely and quickly get him out. The cameraman with him tried to reach Stan in the mean time and fell through the ice himself and was a far greater risk than Stan.

Now how much reality do people want?

...just a wild guess on my part, but when the Fraternal Order of Police call for a donation, you decline...politely of course...
