I just cannot imagine how cowardly and corrupt that cop would have to be in order to pepper spray peaceful protesters sitting on the ground. There have been hundreds of similar acts of civil disobedience in the last 50 years, there are actually well thought-out police procedures for dealing with it in most places.
My mom used to do a lot of peaceful protesting that involved planned arrests. She has been arrested alongside lots of famous people and even the wife of the police chief once. The cops arrested them as though they were assisting an old lady cross the street.
As I've said many times before here, I have plenty of respect for good cops and good police procedure, including them killing people when necessary. I just could not imagine being a cop and being so stupid and cowardly that I felt threatened by a bunch of peaceful protesters and felt like some force against them was warranted.
This world is filled with closeted fascists, plus some like Sammy who are fully out of the closet.
