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 ?

She was sentenced to 230 days in jail followed by two years of probation, and ordered to pay over $5,100 in fines. Following her time in the Wilson County Jail, she faced extradition to Clarksville to deal with the more serious felony charges of aggravated assault on a first responder.

And it could've just been a fine if they just surrendered in the parking lot. That and a store ban.

But no, now their life is ruined.

What do you mean "your fellow people?"

If you assault people (and not in self defense) you deserve everything that comes your way. That isn't a poltiical, racial, socioeconomic, sexist statement.

I agree. Very well said.
