    Agreed.

    But then the snowflakes will find some way to make such an action an infringement of their human rights, and sue the police. :(

    So if he had taken up the offer of taking pictures of the body, would he have been fined twice?


    There are plenty of people who would have jumped at the chance to get pictures of the bodies, I suppose the TV cameras were putting him off.




    I don't think it would work.
    I want to go back to The Olden Days, when every single thing that I can think of was better.....

    (except air quality and Medical Science ;))
  • Here in the UK you can take photos of anything you like in a public place.


    We need to the police to deal with all the knife crime, drug dealing, crash-for-cash scammers, fly tippers, burglaries, mediating twitter arguments before they start to hassle people conducting perfectly lawful activities, even if some view that lawful activity as unsavoury.

    Far more likely to be seen as an infringement of the casualty's or casualty's family's rights, but let's not miss a chance to throw snowflakes in the mix, eh?
