Wearing a press pass doesn’t shield one from ricochet rubber bullets.
FAFO.
It’s one of the risks photographing in dangerous locations.
To: V_TWIN
At 100 yards a press pass is bloody worthless.
If you are standing in a group assembling Molotovs and one of the thugs drops one, you are gonna get burned. Don’t be an idiot. If someone is doing actual violence (like throwing a rock) and you just stand there — you deserve whatever comes back your way.

His “junk” most likely is so extremely tiny that the possibility of that happening is close to zero.

If the photographers are as much an enemy, as are the “reporters”, they need more head shots.

No need to put yourself in harm’s way anymore. Drones can get all the shots you need.

Then the jerk should have been home with them. Not at a riot. Hope his kids don’t end up as stupid as him.

Glad it wasn’t a big piece of concrete.
When in a riot, dress like the riot police who know why. Or leave.
