You CANNOT be mobbing cops like that and expect to walk away without a big 'ol' face of peppers. College is a privilege not a right. Cost hikes happen Education is not immune to this.
Want to protest this? Fine, do so in a reasonable fashion. Get out of hand and start pushing cops...expect force to be used.
The dude was a campus police officer, not authorized with this level of response. Ya, it was just pepper spray, but he used it generously. Im laughing at everyone in this forum, because I doubt half of you who are in support of the policeman have ever experienced oakland police brutality. The man screaming medic was a veteran. All of these protesters were hospitalized for serious burns. The oakland protest style is pretty much like this because people here have to pay more to get into this college then you have to pay to get into harvard and every other ivy league college.
This is very old news and I do not feel like confirming my credibility. I agree that this is an outdated form of protest regarding the restrictions to freedom of speech that has come up of late, but if my generation was there as the protesters... that pig would been shot dead and things would have started going up in flames.
Screw your, "education is not a right, its a privilege". It is a liberty, and privately funded deconstruction of that liberty will result in riots, like the fluke riot for Oscar Grant's public execution.
The cops here are idiots, none of you have any idea.
Im 20. I do not care about any of your generation's ethics or moral dillusions. The old start the wars and the young fight them.
This was an exception and a middle aged man equipped with lethal force indulged in repressing a "violent" mob of elderly protesters with pleasure.
If it was the anonymous sitting there in front of him, he would have peed his pants and started opening fire.

We'd all like to live in a perfect world, wouldn't we? Sorry. Pepper Spray worked and worked pretty well. Stop crying about it. I'd like to see what you would do if you were an officer it that position.
Were you one of the people in the crowd?

How would you be in the crowd that long after being asked numerous times to leave and still be considered innocent? You are just an irrational bomb.

I do feel the need to point out something.
These people were violently protesting bonus sections classes that would cost all of $180 per unit. That is about half of what it costs at actual colleges. If you don't want to pay that you can still sign up for a different section for all of $46 per unit.
You do understand that those administrators and teachers are facilitating the degrees that will allow many of these people to earn much more than the teachers and administrators themselves are currently paid...right?
HOW DARE YOU GET 300K A YEAR WHILE TEACHING ME SOMETHING THAT WILL EARN ME 400K A YEAR! THE NERVE OF SOME PEOPLE!
Why am I back here, I don't even play these games anymore
The problem with the internet is parallel to its greatest achievement: it has given the little man an outlet where he can be heard. Most of the time however, the little man is a little man because he is not worth hearing.
this. mmm america
