Somehow I don't think the cops wanted to pelt a bunch of losers with beanbags and plastic rockets. They were forced too from the protestors themselves who were throwing debris at them and refused to disperse. Cops are not sadists- they did as commanded and most took no joy in it.

I could give a rat's ass about what the cops wanted to do. My post clearly specified that that's what I would like to do.

So you are in support of the rule of law . Nice to know considering your location Burke . Hope comes to the North East at last .

I cried for the enemy in combat, but I think this limited, temporary punishment is funny. This is much more merciful than she deserves. I would have shot with the wooden bullet, chuckled while cuffing her, and offered a band-aid before hauling the trash out !

Now how could that possibly be considered sadistic ?
