1. In our country police can be counted on to hand out traffic tickets and commit assault against non-violent protests. Hooray! Why these police officers aren’t arrested is beyond me. This is assault, plain and simple. No suspension, no time off without pay. They need to be held to a higher standard, not a lower one. If I went around doing the shit our ‘protectors’ do, I’d be slapped in jail in a heart beat.  wilwheaton: laughterkey: motherjones: UC Davis police officer pepper sprays sitting students because, well, just because. Think that’s %$#ing horrible? The video’s worse. Via John Aravosis at AmericaBlog: I’m sorry, this has gone too far. This has happened in police department after police department, and it has gone too far. Our police look like the goons in Russia and China. Please watch this video and send it to everyone you know. This has gone too far. Anyone get a badge number on this guy? With that many cameras, someone must have it. This makes me sick to my stomach.
