Remember those protesters that got pepper sprayed?

They got $30k each as a settlement



Pepper-sprayed UCD students get $30k each - SFGate

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.

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

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.
