Bill O'Reilly is a jackass

Reference: http://www.salon.com/2011/11/22/oreilly_no_right_to_second_guess_the_police/

Specifically (lifted from this article):

I don’t think we have the right to Monday-morning quarterback the police. Particularly at a place like U.C. Davis, which is, you know, a fairly liberal campus, and they’re not running around. They camp to the point where … the Chancellor said “Look, you gotta get them out of there. We can’t operate a college like this.”

"Particularly at a place like U.C. Davis"? Dude, have you ever BEEN to U.C. Davis? It's not exactly a hotbed of revolution and those kids were just SITTING there. So because it's a "liberal campus" it's okay for cops to dose kids who are just SITTING there with military-grade pepper spray at point-blank range?

Seriously?

I'd like someone to demonstrate to O'Reilly what that feels like. Maybe they can wash the pepper spray off with some nice waterboarding.

What an asshole.

Yes completely. If anything UC Davis is not a liberal college. It is middle of the road if anything.

I couldn't believe that this happened there. When you see things like this happening at a university like UC Davis you know it is only going to get worse.
