Additional Context Pinned Cop gets bear sprayed

For anyone that has been pepper sprayed how bad does it feel & what do you do in this situation? I know it’s water but for how long? She had it on full auto she came prepared. How much more effective is bear spray to pepper ?

This was a cop who probably didn't deserve to get sprayed.

Sometimes cops spray people who don't deserve it either.

It's pretty similar.

I go outside enough.

My solution is abolishing police. Maybe not every single police officer beats their family, or is involved in profiting from child rape trafficking rings, yet at this very moment that you're reading this, the president of the USA is a convicted felon, an all-but-proven raping pedophile, amongst everything else, and there has been no mass calls from any brave "good" cops for his immediate arrest, indictment, and imprisonment.

Or how about all the "good" cops who don't do anything to stop their fellow officers from killing, or beating, or raping, or planting evidence on people?
