Comment: I think both Mr. Williams and the Police Officer were unprofessional. Now if Mr. Williams is a Journalist, isn't it professional for him to have some sort of I.D stating his name and profession? Y would you as a journalist want to stay so far away and take pictures with ur cell phone, where was his camera? I think the police acted to Mr. Williams as an intruder.
In my opinion I think Mr. Williams should have had his tag with his name and profession and go to the police and identify himself and his intentions, then if the police give him trouble knowing that he is a journalist and the journalist have rights 2 take pictures n refuse 2 let him take them, then Mr. Williams had all rights 2 take them without permission. On the other had if the officer thinks that Mr. Williams was intruding and he said he was a journalist, I think the police could have dealt with it better instead of in the hostile manner. And 2 ask for Mr. Williams cell phone was out of his place, he did not buy it.
I think we as mature adults who people suppose 2 b looking up 2 in society needs to be more mature and professional and work out things differently then things would run smoothly.
I hope that the judge warn Mr. Williams to b more professional next time around. |
