This is the bigger issue. Overhanded tactics of the police force. I thought this was a free country. Why would you arrest a photographer or journalist or reporter in a free city in a free county in a free state in a free country?
Something to hide? THIS is why nobody trusts the police.

Funny how so many people fall all over themselves to justify the police actions against the protesters because of looters or rioters, but say nothing of how journalists are equally under assault.
Don't want any real pictures or footage, do we?
Apparently, even in daytime, journalists are now being assigned a 'special' spot....step outside and you risk arrest.
Protestors can protest if they 'move' around. Stop and you risk arrest.
Madness.

The horror of that man assaulting those glorious protector's eyes with flashes of light and ears with clicking noise!
The rights of journalists ends where the lawman's begins, after all some of them could be of the spiritual belief that a photograph steals a part of your soul.

You`re either part of the problem or part of the solution,
The police are trying to get a explosive situation under control,if that reporter doesn`t want to be cooperative then he`s part of the problem and needs to be arrested.
