I don't particularly disagree with either of you. Certainly not enough to
debate.
After posting, I started thinking that campus police probably don't have near
the training or experience other police do.
You use pepper spray to help temporarily blind someone, this gives you an
advantage in the violent situation.
Pepper is not the right tool for crowd control and especially shouldn't be used
a punishment.
For us, if the crowd gets out of control, I mean as in a riot, a prison staff
probably doesn't have the training or tools to restore order. They have to call
people who specialize in these things.
I guess I want to say contrary to what may have been implied, pepper spray is
not something that constituents crimes against humanity.
In prisons, the inmates don't necessarily even hold a grudge against those who
sprayed them. They know we are just doing the job of keeping them safe from each
other.
Most people, if they thought it through, would rather be sprayed than repeatedly
be hit with a bone crushing stick.
And sincerely, it appears to me that the Campus Police did what they did for
very wrong reasons. As in, they were punishing.
