Or you would just be repeating shit you heard. Both our NUFF and our old and new IM/IM have physical control before the use of OC. Furthermore, most jurisdiction have policies that restrict the use of OC to incidents of violence or threat. Quite simply, in Canada this would likely not have played out this way.

matthewcline 0 #108 November 22, 2011 Has any ones opinions changed after seeing the two new videos? The first showing the Police and the Leader of the particular protest conversing and "agreeing" tot he pepper spray, kind of he at least acknowledged it and showed concern for the other in attendance. The second showing the Silent Protest as the School Chancellor walked down the side walk to her car. http://weaselzippers.us/2011/11/22/video-uc-davis-occupiers-agreed-to-be-pepper-sprayed-before-incident/ I know nothing of the Weasel Zippers, it popped up on twitter, so I can not validate any politics of the site.

SuperKat 0 #111 November 23, 2011 Quote Or, for all we know, he simply flipped them the bird and they beat the shit out of him for daring to offend them. Seems to me, in America, cops are (supposedly) trained to control their emotions in crowd-control situations. Or maybe we should all just STFU with the speculation until we know what really happened. Quote And I, in reply, am far more interested in why "snatching the hat off an officer" (the horror!) amounts to an offense that warrants having his head bashed and bloodied. Mind you, THAT was why he was beaten up, not because he was an asshole. Someone here stated that vinegar was thrown at cops. Well, it wasn't vinegar. It was urine. I was probably 30 feet away from those guys who drank that piss and got it in their eyes. Eff'd up situation! We were just standing there making sure they didn't break through the barriers to get inside the stock exchange. For the most part it was just annoying noise and taunting and what not but then all of a sudden you saw the piss fly through the air. I was about 5 feet away from a group of 20 occupiers that went up to a cop and said "Be prepared for WAR! You better keep your helmets on!" The only thing I could think of at that moment was, "Oh fudge my life! I'm one of the few a-holes here that didn't bring a helmet. I'm screwed!" There are entrances and exits within the park. The occupiers then assembled in the park and all of a sudden they started charging at the barriers, tore them apart and chanted "You can't keep us locked in here! Do you guys feel like prison guards?" I was thinking to myself, ummm you're free to come and go as you please, people. Wow, what an idea!They broke the barrier bars and flung them at us. Then, they tried to rush out the barriers, for whatever sense of urgency they had in their mind to do so, and we had to hold them back while walking backwards to keep them from trampling us. I was a human barrier when I was in between the protesters, barriers and cops from behind me pushing me forward. I was just thinking...fudge my life 999 times, this hurts like a mother! Then, people were spitting and throwing objects at us and I was praying not to get hit with something in the head. When it was all said and done, I walked away to wash my face and wash the abrasions on my arms. I kept thinking"Why am I here? I don't even want to be here. I've been standing on my feet for 14 hrs in the cold freezing rain with no rain jacket, freezing cold sloshy feet, talking to tourists, giving them directions and talking to fellow cops about computer problems and then all of a sudden these people want to fling objects at me. Why?" The hand slashing I didn't physically see happen but it definitely happened. A cop was sent to the hospital for bleeding and lacerations to the hand. I don't care so much about people protesting. I just care about not getting hurt for just standing in the street, waiting to go home to my wife and kids.

Kennedy 0 #119 November 23, 2011 QuoteQuoteProve it. Until you can document something, Since you made the claim that pretty much every police organization uses that continuum, you should be doing the proving. Or you would just be repeating shit you heard. Well, since the shit I heard came from other sworn and certified officers, most folks give that more credence than "this one time on tv" or "that reporter said" references. I haven't seen the written UOF policies for most, QuoteBoth our NUFF and our old and new IM/IM have physical control before the use of OC. That depends on how you define physical control. Obviously "soft hands" things like guiding with an open hand and use of restraints like cuffs on a non-resisting suspect are lesser force than OC spray. However, I can only think of one department that places OC on par with striking, baton, and TASER. QuoteFurthermore, most jurisdiction have policies that restrict the use of OC to incidents of violence or threat. Then they've made it completely useless. By the time an incident rises to assault, OC is pointless. OC's value lies in its ability to make higher force like manhandling and intermediate tools. Pepper spray is most useful on very static situations like a nonviolent noncompliance suspect who refuses a command like "turn around and put your hands behind your back," but doesn't move. OC is a very poor choice for times like an active assault or violently resisting suspect. QuoteQuite simply, in Canada this would likely not have played out this way. Riots at G# events and hockey games would not support that conclusion.witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
