Was having ~30 salaried NYPD personnel to escort one dude really a good use of budget?

Are there any photos online, where cops don't look like absolute bitchmade pussies? JFC
They wouldn't be cops if they weren't absolute bitchmade pussies.
There were a few pictures during the BLM protests were the cops were friendly with the protesters. Reportedly, the cops beat the protesters right after the press left.
Is there anything stopping normal folks from wearing PRESS attire when demonstrating?
Seems like a logical defense against this sort of shit.
You think press people weren't being targeted by the end? The press ops pictures were from the beginning, but very quickly, the cops started beating and arresting journalists once they started putting tape over their badges.
