Just because you are passively breaking the laws does not mean the police are not justified in use force to make you obey the law. If more of the tweed clad fools we having running our university would teach their students that instead of the glory of civil disobedience fewer of their students would know what pepper spray taste like.

As for the soccer mom if the dumb twit refuses to comply with what the officer says then she should get peppered sprayed as well. The officer doesn't know that she is just a soccer mom who is upset because her husband is banging the neighbor. For all he knows she is carrying a 45 between her fake boobs and is just trying to get distract him and get a better field of fire for her boyfriend in the back seat.. He has to protect himself by keeping control of the situation. He has the legal right and responsibility to do that. If she refuses to listen to him them he has it in has right to taze her and see if that makes her more compliant. She doesn't have the force to force him to jeopardize his safety simply because she bought into the deep misconception that he works for her.

You need to go back and look at the RK videos, he is still pushing off from the ground and refusing to let his hands be pulled behind his back pretty much until the end. Keep in mind those officers were found not guilty in a court of law it was only after the court of public opinion tried to burn down LA that they decided to say screw double jeopardy the mob demands blood and it is blood we will give. If anything the RK video shows why police shouldn't be video at all times. Even having a jury of your peers isn't enough to overcome the mob when it has it dander up. By the way what happened to those guys who pulled the truck driver out and been him to a pulp for no reason except he was white? Oh yeah the mob justice system decided they should be forgiven. Well I guess the mob knows best that is what democracy is all about after all.

So were those video tapes of you released on the internet so your family could be harassed? You know people published the home address of the cops who pepper sprayed the half wits? Is having your family threatened because you do your job just another indignity they should be expected suffer for the honor of being public servants?
