UC Davis Police Pepper Spray

    As campus police officers are being rebuked for using pepper spray on a group of Occupy Wall Street protesters at a California university, one political activist suggests they would have been criticized for any action they took against the picketers.

    The University of California - Davis (UC Davis) has placed Annette Spicuzza, chief of campus police, and other campus officers on leave following the viral release of a video that shows them using pepper spray on student protestors. Students pitched their tents overnight on the campus as part of the Occupy Wall Street movement, and the school's police chief accounts that the protesters would not allow the officers to leave.

    Douglas V. Gibbs, a conservative radio talk show host and publisher of Political Pistachio, tells OneNewsNow the video only shows part of what actually happened.

    "So, we didn't get the whole story. They were told that they needed to move, and if they didn't, they would be made to move. The police decided then to use pepper spray," Gibbs explains. "Now if the police would have decided to go over there and pick them up and move them, that's all you would have seen in the video. Then it would have looked like the police were manhandling the people."
