Our Own Arab Spring: UC Davis



What is really chilling about this video is how nonchalant the officer appears to be as he pepper sprays peaceful demonstrators. Almost as if he is simply watering the flower garden, but as Sarah pointed out he is actually watering the garden that will grow the seeds of radical change as normal Americans are utterly horrified. Those are our children on the frontlines.

This is wrong. This is unAmerican.

For what it's worth, we've seen this before. The system is broken and needs an overhaul. And no amount of pepper spray is going to prevent that from happening.
