I'm in the 'shopped crowd on this one.
Police departments these days as super-sensitive to public image. So much so that no officer would be permitted that kind of personal expression on equipment, particularly some one with rank (those look like Captain's bars on that vest). Actually the whole outfit looks less tidy than regulation. If that is an undoctored image, perhaps it's of a rioter, not the riot squad?
As far as riot gear, SWAT, etc. ... if people weren't assholes, we would need that kind of policing.
