UC Davis Pepperspray cop...

[AshburnerX]

...has finally lost his job. They aren't saying if he was fired or not, but he no longer works at UC Davis.

Also, this guy was earning 100k a year. That's more than most of the professors at the school. WTF!?

 

[Charlie Don't Surf]

that's cool

Good thing they found a scapegoat! Now they won't have to change their procedures and policies.

 

[sixpackshaker]

Now they will have to find someone else to water the hippies.

 

[Magister Moonie]

Haha, assault by the police on unarmed, subdued protesters. Just can't get enough.

He could have earned a buttload of overtime. That's how we do it up here.

UC Davis is a public school, IIRC, so the salary tables should be public. You should be able to find out what his salary was.

Are you talking about the procedures and policies that he didn't follow when he used a non-authorized pepperspray device in a situation that did not call for pepperspray at a range that was well understood to be unsafe?

He broke a ton of rules. I mean....in what world would a cop think it's OK to bring non-authorized weapons?

 

[strawman]

And because they found all those rules he violated, and discharged him successfully, the school and police have no further liability nor reason to change.

 

[Necronic]

Why would you change policies in response to someone causing trouble by violating existing policies? They did the right thing. He violate policies, he was terminated. That's all you need.

I have no idea what you're arguing about <__>

 

[strawman]

The problem is that there's nothing to argue about, so we're making stuff up as we go along.

Halforums: Argue or get out.

 

[Necronic]

I disagree.

 

[sixpackshaker]

I disagree.

Well good day sir!!!

I said good day.

It's a bit too hot, actually. I'd says it's more a halfway decent day.

Too hot? Move to Canada, you damn polar bear. It's way too cold.

Granted, it's 02h30 am at the moment, so I guess it's ok top be a bit more nippy
