I'm not carping, mikey. I am looking at it without the blinkers, and considering the context .. this is no Unknown Rebel in Tienanmen square.

I also look at each and every police shooting with an open mind ... you should try it.

Gromit, Talbot’s link at 23:39 Mon tells you more about the situation than that picture does.

Gromit
An iconic photo.
An instant classic.
Tells you you more about the situation than 10,000 words can.



No it doesn't, the black officers Facebook page told me far more than this deceiving photo did.

'this' being the tension in the US

Teeth in, specs on, AP...another super photo...thank you....x

[anneasquith]

G. I thought so too :')

[mikey4444]

I agree anneasquith ! ( 09:03)

What a lot of Moaning Minnies we have on here today !

[anneasquith]

Not just today Mikey. . :-)

[naomi24]

Yes, how utterly ‘super’ that picture is. No one knows what’s being said – just a bloke appearing to be arguing with a policeman. Hmmm…..

[mikey4444]

Once again, I agree anneasquith. The cynicism of some of our Usual Suspects is getting boring.

They remind me of the Old Gits !

The photo can still be iconic even if the story behind it is not as you would like it, just as a good piece of writing can be fiction.

[naomi24]

Mikey, are these 'personal attacks' - you know, the sort of thing you so abhor? Just asking.

[naomi24]

Gromit, you're probably right. As fiction goes, this is a good example.

[-Talbot-]

Well you are by far an older git than me, mikey. I pride myself on being an old-ish git that can reason.

The more you type the clearer it becomes ... you do not posses that same ability.

Proving once again that he is possibly/probably the most hypocritical ABer on AB.

Naomi...stop and think for once.....I can't see anyone arguing.....
I was commenting on the photo as I said I woud.....not on the situation or what was being said....if anything was being said????

[-Talbot-]

Gness, AP's second photo is too contrived. It looks like he got a mate to sit down in front of the police ... who are totally oblivious to him being sat there.

[gness]

Talbot....I don't care.....I wasn't commenting on the situation.......or taking a side........I like the photo....I said I would look at it....I did and I commented on it.....the photograph.

//Naomi...stop and think for once//

I think continually.

[-Talbot-]

Gness?

You don't care about what?
