Actually whats happening here is some players of one team are beating up on their own fans seated in the stands.
Well, actually, those aren't team players you're talking about ... they are leeches that have attached themselves ... completely unwanted bloodsuckers. I understand the frustration of appearances.

These kids have it sosooo easy and if some pepper spray is used on them it is now a big national story?
Sorry ,but some kids just got some pepper spray not tear gas, (cn or cs) they were not struck with a night stick.
Where were the police with the fire hoses, they could have done some cleaning of the sidewalks.
Yea, these kids are lucky they didn't go to ken state.
And you got my point.
They were in the wrong and refusing a lawful order what should the police have done?

UC Davis chancellor calls for task force to review pepper spraying of protesters - Yolo County News - sacbee.com (http://www.sacbee.com/2011/11/19/4066778/uc-davis-chancellor-calls-for.html#storylink=omni_popular - broken link)
So let me get this straight, a peaceful protest of the tuition fee hike by sitting on the sidewalk to block the path actually warrants being pepper sprayed in the face by the police? The students blocking the sidewalk posed NO threat to the police.
It's very alarming that Chancellor Katehi defended the actions of the campus police, then caved into launching a full investigation by an outside reviewer. What a shame. The chancellor is supposed to protect the students, not attack them.
.
Shame on you for posting this cr3p! You must be a law breaker too? When police say to............ disperse...........several times and the people ignore that order, what are police to do? Use night sticks, bullets? OWS was wrong and continue to be WRONG! They have sites for OWS to train them how to irritate and not listen to the law. OWS are idiots, even if it is college students. Wait for my next post about OWS people. Scum.

Sane is irrelevant when it comes to deciding morality - sure. 90% of the population could have an opinion on morality that runs counter to yours - you could call them all insane, but it wouldn't make a lick of difference.
Look, MOD CUT, and quickly resort to insults when intellectually outgunned - perhaps you should give up.
Geez you just keeping digging that hole for yourself, don't you (speaking of not being very intelligent) ... "Sane is irrelevant when it comes to deciding morality" huh?
If 90% of the population had an opinion that ran counter to mine, I would check my bearings, and get the hell out. I wouldn't argue my point where it wasn't respected.
Intellectually outgunned? phbbbbt ... kid, I am guessing you are maybe in college ... if you have graduated with a degree, I wonder in what ... hard to imagine. I have BA and MS degrees in arts and sciences, but that is not so much what is significant ... I have depth of proven, worldly experience that enables my educational background to be applied effectively, and socially responsibly to reality. Your comments here, and in other threads, demonstrate that you live in your mind amidst a collection of phrases and syllabi from 101 classrooms. Yeah, my ability with written language alone identifies me as unintelligent, huh ... phbbbt. (BTW: you're welcome for me fixing that pesky spelling of the word "irrelevant" that keeps eluding you.)

Why are some people making the OWS to be some kind of saints? If you protest, EXPECT, some problems or even death. OWS are the problem, not the solution.
If the believers of many causes find common purpose and declare such, and operate in concert, then they are so connected.
Right....so like I said any protest that occurs now that isn't pushing a conservative agenda is now part of "occupy wall street".

There is always a "concern", this is just causing a bit more resources to be allocated to this matter. Also, the idea that the wealthy are shaking in their boots about this is just left-wing propaganda being used to try to strengthen the base...
Okay, its not just hippies, its also young liberal arts majors without jobs.
Conservative propaganda is clever, far more clever than that used by the left, they aren't attacking this straight on....they are diluting it and twisting it. They are getting the very people involved and supporting it to change the way they speak of it, indeed, you're doing it here. The broad grouping of all left-leading protests as part of "occupy wall street" is just a strategy to weaken it. In typical fashion conservative propagandist change the wording, the framing, etc and let the liberals destroy themselves.

Of course they are separate pockets, that is why the conservative agenda is always to weaken public programs. The wealth concentration in the top 1% is almost entirely private wealth, not public. Its difficult for private hands to get a lot of public dollars, the only area where that is common is in the military complex and unsurprisingly military spending is largely supported by conservatives.
Also you spoke of them as separate before, furthermore, how exactly is a protest supporting public spending at a public university....then part of a movement that is against wealth?

Firstly, in what way is this a labor movement? Secondly, the American worker isn't going to benefit from this at all....because the movement has already been killed.
The only protest that has a hope of changing anything is one that is explosive, that is, fast and at least partly destructive. With today's media its too easy to manipulate and twist any slow moving movement....
Liberalism is dying in America and not much is going to change that, its just a question of which side of the coin you want to be on...
