The Ugly Face(s) of Birmingham-"Thug" 2
A second, very menacing hired "thug", posing as a security guard who also tried to prevent me from taking photographs in a public street and whose hand can be seen in the related photos, trying to grab my camera. Birmingham, England. 3 Aug 2008.
As a photographer, and a healthcare worker, I actually feel sorry for this guy. He clearly is not the sort of person who should be let loose on the public in the way he was with me, but while at the same time he was threatening me, he has a deep, haunted, sad expression, as if he is carrying a great deal of trouble inside. I hope he can get himself on the right path in life and lose the haunted look.
His colleague on the other hand is just a small-minded idiot who likes to throw his weight around.
