I like that idea

Rick Lee 09-26-2012 12:53 PM

Hell, I'd take a hit of pepper spray to the face for $30k. Where can I sign up?

red-beard 09-26-2012 12:55 PM

WTF? They were non-compliant to a lawful police order and they get $30K?

WTF is wrong with this world!

Jrboulder 09-26-2012 01:48 PM

They should have billed them for the pepper spray.

Not big fans of the first amendment are we?

Funny how when the police rub you boyz the wrong way they are abusing their authority but when it happens to someone you don't like it is OK.

RonDent 09-26-2012 02:07 PM

Note the way they are fighting with he police! That clearly looking like an offensive posture to me.

Hugh R 09-26-2012 02:27 PM

Bad call on the popo. But they were also told they would be sprayed if they didn't disperse.

BlueSkyJaunte 09-26-2012 02:38 PM

Should've tazed them instead.

Sending riot police to deal with a peaceful student protest is pretty ####ing stupid.

Who cares if you agree with the protesters (I don't), it's about inappropriate use of force.

Yep. Should have called in the National Guard.
THEY know how to deal with student protesters.

WTF is wrong with you?

Pepper spray is issued to law enforcement officers for defensive, NOT for offensive use.

Arresting them for non-compliance was the cops job. Instead, the cop punished the protesters for not complying by pepper spraying them. It is NOT a cop's job to mete out punishment. Meting out punishment is the court's job.

This is the U.S.A., Not Nazi Germany. :rolleyes:
