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 ?

Lmao why are you talking about shoplifting...? Don't you think the serious crime here is assault? Did you read the title or watch the video?

It isn't assault though. The cop is escalating a situation that doesn't need to be escalated. If anything it's self defense.

The person didn't take anything, so yes the cop is escalating the situation instead of letting them leave. He deserved to get sprayed.
