German policeman shames photo taking rubberneckers at a fatal crash scene

I feel like it’s a little offensive to take any picture of a German with his arm out and palm down and imply something about it. In this context it’s a perfectly natural gesture and anybody in the world might do the same thing, but because this guy is German…

The context is that he’s telling the driver to keep driving, using a fairly strong word that basically means “disappear,” and simply signaling with his hand the direction that the driver should be disappearing to.

Willkommen auf BoingBoing, Kamerad.

Just FTR, of you haven’t been lurking around for some time and haven’t noticed: some folks around here have the kind of humour which might give others a fit.
As long as it isn’t against the forums rules, it is not exactly frowned upon. They might even get some so-called likes.
