There was absolutely no reason to spray these kids. W are allowed to protest as long as it is non-violent. Read the whole article.

We've always had protests...Go back to the early years of our country...NY was always rioting...

W are allowed to protest as long as it non-violent does not hampers the right to freely travel or produce economic activity,i.e. get to your job. Read the whole article Bill of Rights.

You are free to protest this way (Disturbing the Peace) just like someone is free to steal or murder, just expect to get caught or subdued at some point. Want to protest correctly? Pay close attention the First Amendment; the Founders expressed that clearly, as did Jefferson's/Madison's actions concerning Adam's tyrannical Presidency.

Sorry, I don’t support protests when they start infringing on other people’s rights. You want to protest, do it off the sidewalks and outside of the administration buildings.

University grounds are private property. People need to observe university rules when there. Disrupting classes or the functions of the university should not be allowed.

If people want to picket on the parameter, that is their right. It is not their right to simply take over and occupy any section of that private property.

Spray away officers. While you’re at it, kick some behinds in the process.

I have protested on University Campuses. There are ways to do it that are respectful of others, and the university administration, even if you disagree with them.

The First Amendment doesn’t give you the right to do any damned thing you want, to get your point across. These kids found that out the hard way. EXCELLENT!

If this is the incident I think it is I agree. The kids were not a threat, they were just sitting there. The cop went down the line like he was spray painting a fence.
