UC Davis PD vs OWS.. Who ya got?

UC Davis PD vs OWS.. Who ya got?

This is the feel good picture of the day..

The video this was taken from has gone viral, it’s got everything in it. Whining, screaming, victimhood, racism (Only white folks there) police action, hippies and chanting…BUT, the video that has everyone all turned sideways leaves out some vital information…Shocked are you? Yeah not me either.

Fast forward to around 4 min. if you don’t really care to hear the “F-the Police” chants..

Now (This little quote I found at Flopping Aces)

Charles J. Kelly, a former Baltimore Police Department lieutenant who wrote the department’s use of force guidelines, said pepper spray is a “compliance tool” that can be used on subjects who do not resist, and is preferable to simply lifting protesters.

“When you start picking up human bodies, you risk hurting them,” Kelly said. “Bodies don’t have handles on them.”

After reviewing the video, Kelly said he observed at least two cases of “active resistance” from protesters. In one instance, a woman pulls her arm back from an officer. In the second instance, a protester curls into a ball. Each of those actions could have warranted more force, including baton strikes and pressure-point techniques.

“What I’m looking at is fairly standard police procedure,” Kelly said.

So with this new information will you or won’t you agree that the UC Davis PD acted appropriately? I’m sure 99% of the readers here will agree, and 98.5% of those will say if the cops used their batons, flashlights and boots it would have made for a better video… I’m the 98.5%

Hippie idiots deserved the pepper spray, spoiled little rich pricks trying to claim “Victimhood” the morons on the “Quad” have never had it tough. You want tough? Put their ass in Iraq, Darfur, Hell, put them in Mexico and see how tough it is without daddy’s dough… Some folks just need killin I reckon.
