Unless they have a video I wouldn't be to fast to believe what the police say happened....
Yet the OWS supporters are light speed fast believieng the protestors? The students sitting there doing "nothing" the other day were actually blocking the entrance to the building and asked to move and warned multiple times. They wanted to get sprayed to get everybody all wound up. Now the cops should have realized this but they didn't. You block an entrance to a public building shutting it off from the use of others then you are in the wrong. Sorry protestors. Go stand under a tree and chant if you want that is your right. You don't have a right to infringe on others rights.

It is just common sense when police order you to do something you should do it, then you do not get tased or peppered sprayed.
Well, there is a problem with the police pepper-spraying a bunch of spoiled brats. There is a distinction that must be made. Peaceful, non-aggressive spoiled brats sitting or kneeling on the ground should not be pepper-sprayed. Aggressive spoiled brats trying to force themselves through police lines, or using sticks with protruding nails should be dealt with appropriately, and pepper spray is, in my opinion, appropriate.
I don't know. I think that pepper spraying either category of brats is perfectly appropriate.
Yep..............Assaulting police with nail filled sticks and blocking the entrance is so legal.
"Unfortunately, a few anarchists have joined the Occupied movement, and crowds tried to push their way through the police line on to the resort property," Crump said. "OC spray was deployed twice on aggressive groups, which was effective in stopping their actions."
In at least one instance, protesters assaulted police with nail-filled sticks, Phoenix police said.
Resort property? I guess they were attempting to occupy private property then? Scum.
Freedom fighters pepper sprayed for no reason -- AGAIN
You mean parasites, pests, nuisances.
I guess the op thinks these thugs have a RIGHT to storm private property and disrupt events, huh?

"These people are writing laws that are rubber-stamped and passed in state legislatures all around the country," said one protester, Rob Smith, 36, of Phoenix, adding that laws "should not be written behind closed doors, particularly by corporations."
Where was this guy when obamacare was being written?
