Yeah, that shit was pretty fucking ugly. Reminds me of the fire hoses and dogs back in the 60's in Birmingham, AL. History is repeating itself.

Please, don't disrespect those who suffered in Alabama and the south by comparing them to OWS. When the OWS folks get tired of it, they can change their minds and go home. Those folks in 1964 had more than corporate oppression to deal with. Much more.

I am in no way justifying the "Student Pepper Spraying" but that was one cop, one incident. Their are a million thoughts on the OWS protest, but I think we all can agree that both sides handled themselves very well. Given the scale of the protests, there were very few incidents in total. The protesters and law enforcement both acted more civilized we have seen in past protests.

Q:How many cops does it take to throw a man down the stairs?
A:None. He fell.

$116,000 a year to babysit frat houses and keggers, no fucking wonder the cost of an education is so fucking much.
We can hire four security guards at that price and stand them in four separate places to make sure no crime goes down in those four areas and we would be getting better value than this six figure earning records clerk who will now undoubtedly be costing the system (ultimately the students) more money to defend his actions. Ponderous man, fucking ponderous...
