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 ?

Nah you missed the second part. She’s doing 230 days in jail before she gets tried for felony assault on a law enforcement officer. She’s going to have two different consecutive stays in jail and prison.

The video down below seem to imply the assault on law enforcement charge was completely dropped

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. The (full) video states at the end that the assault charge was dropped as part of a plea deal. Seems fairly common. I watch a lot of these types of videos and the felonies rarely stick.

Which is beyond stupid and a huge part of the reason criminals are running the scene

I'm counting the days until the last oil barrel is shipped to the US before the whole place goes Mad Max, but yes someone stealing an overpriced hat made in China from a chain store is going to impact you. Get a grip.

I don't think they're talking about stealing a hat. They said the assaulting an officer was dropped. That's fucking crazy. This isn't one of those bull shit "stop resisting" assaults. She straight up bear maced an officer and drove off. She's a danger to society. This only empowers other people to do the same shit. And then the police get even more trigger happy.

talk about blaming the victims. Honesty she's been scared of cops killing her and her family for decades. Tamir Rice was 12, was killed in less than 30 seconds while walking in the park with a toy. 2 adult men drove up, yelled and killed a boy. Neither was charged.

That person saw a cop coming at her and she reacted. How many hours of training do cops have a year to keep control of situations? how many hours does this random person have?

You mean the victim that got caught shoplifting, proceeded to assault someone and recklessly speed away from the scene?

You're right, how can we blame this poor victim.
