The Perils of Photography

These kinds of things happen all the time, ESPECIALLY in the US. I've been involved in lesser incidents several times.
There are many places in the world where this would never even be considered.
In the US as a psychological, pathological syndrome, it all evolved from those Baby-on-Board signs you used to see in the back windows of cars. It's a real syndrome, from those developed the hyper-protective helicopter parent. I feel so sorry for all their kids!
How many helicopter parents do we have here??? LoL

That's what you get when you have media fuelled hysteria and mob mentallity combined. It has never happened to me, but I am careful about where I point my camera, simply because I want to avoid such confrontations.

Saw this video yesterday which might be of interest...
