After video of police officers pepper spraying protesters point blank at UC Davis emerged last week, blogger Jim Hoft defended the police in a November 20 post titled, “Sorry Libs... The UC Davis Pepper Spray Incident Was ”Standard Police Procedure." Hoft wrote in his post above a picture of a police officer spraying seated protesters, "How to shut down a row of screeching libs in 4 easy swoops..."

Two officers at UC Davis have been put on administrative leave since the video emerged.

This comes from MSNBC:

A law enforcement official who watched the clip called the use of force “fairly standard police procedure.”

The protest was held in support of the overall Occupy Wall Street movement and in solidarity with protesters at the University of California, Berkeley who were jabbed by police with batons on Nov. 9.

Charles J. Kelly, a former Baltimore Police Department lieutenant who wrote the department's use of force guidelines, said pepper spray is a “compliance tool” that can be used on subjects who do not resist, and is preferable to simply lifting protesters.

“When you start picking up human bodies, you risk hurting them,” Kelly said. “Bodies don't have handles on them.”
