I like the adolescent looking cop and his expression; otherwise, it could be a bit more artistic and less like a film/sound stage.

So, what IS the story here?!?
Has anyone even considered the possibility of police brutality?!?

Well, I liked it before and I still like it. Oddly, the thing that really makes me like it is the sharpness at the bottom of the closer cop's boot.

The picture does indeed look almost surreal.

Please write some info so we can read the interesting story here.

The moral of the story: don't run and don't fight back?

Good setup. Hope it was!
For me this is a bit more than an Oops. More like O ohh.

I guess it was too late for first aid.

Isn't it sad that this really happens and nothing is ever done about it?

Good shot. A bit blurry.

Ouch. Focus is a bit soft on the cops, it may have been intentional, but I feel they're as much a part of the subject as the poor guy on the ground is.

Quite an action/news photo. Wow. One of those that can tell a story without having a title.

A rather troubling picture that didn't match the rather light-hearted title...
