SHOOT THE MESSINGER

or in this case the Oakland PD shoots the camera person:


this description from antiprocon via YouTube:

While filming a police line at Occupy Oakland after midnight on Nov. 3 following the Nov. 2 general strike, an officer opens fire and shoots me with a rubber bullet. I was standing well back. There was no violence or confrontations of any kind underway. At 0:31 seconds you can see a tall officer in the front raise his weapon and then fire. This is the full clip of the incident.

you can even hear a voice, probably that of the cameraperson, asking the cops: "here? is this OK?"
sure, pal. jus' stand riiiiight there...
