Hartmann: Should Megyn Kelly take a face full of pepper spray? (by TheBigPictureRT)
‘Now - the new weapon of choice for police - as we’re seeing so often used against peaceful Occupy Wall Street protesters is pepper spray. GOP TV a.k.a. Fox so-called News has been quick to defend pepper spray as…not being all that bad. The point of this is…pepper spray is a chemical weapon. It’s more painful than getting tasered - and has far more long lasting effects than waterboarding, at least physically. Which might be why GOP TV talking heads are willing to praise its use from afar - but not willing to put their face in front of one of Lieutenant Pike’s pepper spray cannisters. And until they do - until Hannity - or Megyn Kelly - or O’Reilly walk the walk - and take in a faceful of pepper spray - then they should hold off on making comments about how it’s a legitimate use of force against the Occupy Wall Street movement.’

‘Two police officers who pepper-sprayed peaceful protesters at the University of California, Davis have been placed on administrative leave.
The offending officers, who went on leave on Sunday, have not been identified, The Associated Press reported.
“Videos taken during Friday’s arrests showed that the two officers used pepper spray on peacefully seated students,” the university announced in a news release.
On Friday, police officers violently confronted anti-corporatism protesters camping on the UC Davis campus, spraying the chemical irritant on students that were sitting on the ground and arresting 10 of them.
Many UC Davis alumni, staff, students, and faculty expressed outrage over the incident.
On Saturday, the Faculty Association of UC Davis issued a statement accusing University Chancellor Linda Katehi of “a gross failure of leadership” and calling for her resignation.
Katehi has resisted the calls so far, pledging instead to rigorously probe the incident.
The demonstration was being held in solidarity with the worldwide Occupy movements that began in September after a group of people gathered in New York’s financial district with the motto of “Occupy Wall Street” to protest “corporate greed,” corruption, poverty, and social and economic inequality in the US.’
