IMO, this has been one of the better threads in recent months.
And all along I've been thinkin' of this one little kid (lil' darlin' as SP says) and still it is a shocking method of human interaction to me.
But then I started thinking, what if there were 50 kids like this in a group of hundreds, eventually isolated as a group? (8-yr olds all holding jagged pieces of molding, mind you), wouldn't pepper spraying the whole bunch seem almost barbaric??
By then I guess it wouldn't be a matter of effective and humane, it would most likely be water blasts or smoke bombs, I guess.
Absofrigginlutely, this was a shocking bit of human interaction. That's the point, isn't it?
Let's forget the police part for a moment.
You hear that in a local school, some one's little ray of sunshine went all super-nova. Throwing things, threatening to kill students and teachers, literally going after them to the point where the teachers had to remove the other students for safety and were concerned with their own saftey to hide as well. He created a weapon with the intention on hurting or even killing someone.
Isn't that shocking behavior coming from an 8 year old?
Then the mother arrives on the scene and her first words weren't "Oh my Lord, my son did that?" (He never acts out anywhere else my ass!)
Pepper spraying a kid should be shocking. It shouldn't be an everyday occurrence. But I'm not going to give these cops any grief over this.
