UC Davis police officer pepper sprays sitting students because, well, just because. Think that's %$#ing horrible? The video's worse. Via John Aravosis at AmericaBlog:
I'm sorry, this has gone too far. This has happened in police department after police department, and it has gone too far. Our police look like the goons in Russia and China. Please watch this video and send it to everyone you know. This has gone too far.
Anyone get a badge number on this guy? With that many cameras, someone must have it.
This makes me sick to my stomach.

When I get to the point where watching The Arcade Fire's performance on Palladia makes me tear up for no good reason, I should probably adjust a dosage or two.

"Oh, holy mother of god, what a crock these people are. In the middle of the worst recession since the 1930's, with the country being told to accept nine-percent unemployment for the foreseeable future, and income inequality swamping the middle class, the responsible point of view among the leaders of both political parties is to "reform entitlements" until what's left is sticks and splinters because then, and only then, will the delicate, blessed "Markets" feel goody-good-good about themselves again." -
