Nothing in this chapter shall prohibit any person who is a peace officer, as defined in Chapter 4.5 (commencing with Section 830) of Title 3 of Part 2, from purchasing, possessing, transporting, or using any tear gas or tear gas weapon if the person has satisfactorily completed a course of instruction approved by the Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training in the use of tear gas.

In summary, law enforcement isn't bound by utilizing these measure only in the interest of self defense.

All that says is that the police can use tear-gas. I'm not disputing that. The section of the law you quoted doesn't exempt police officers from the self defense restriction I quoted.

Right wing, left wing. It's all the same. The only difference now are people who are pro the system currently in place (Republican/Democrats are the same exact thing, for reference please see all the ex-Goldman Sachs in political office through Obama - namely former Obama Treasury Secretary Nominee / thief of $600M+ customer money at MF Global John Corzine) and the people who are against the system progressing deeper into the abyss of corruption and ineptitude. As we make our way into the next coming credit downgrade of the United States (likely before Q2 2012) and the credit crash sparked on by Eurodebt becoming completely unmanageable in both the periphery and core it's going to take a lot more for people to be ignorant of the greed and manipulation taking place and the police force being used to perpetuate things the way TPTB want it move forward.

So while there are those stating whether the recent rash of police brutality and the methods of the protesters are lawful or not, one has to consider who those laws are there to protect. Certainly not the citizens. And if anyone thinks these protests are just a flash in the pan, I envy your naivety. Over the next decade when our government and those of Europe and Asia begin to take the currency wars to the next step and the majority of Americans begin to see their real wealth vanish from hyperinflation, that's when the real protests will start to begin.

I'd have sprayed them too just for making my job more difficult because they're whiny little twats. They're breaking the law, no sympathy for them, none. I hope it hurt like fuck.

I'm glad your brother died. I hope he was in a lot of pain when it happened.

You're a fucking horrible person. You will die alone.

I'm sorry man but you should be banned from these forums forever for saying that shit. That's reprehensible and inexcusable.

[purest]

uh no, harrison does the same shit literally every day. in fact he can barely type 2 sentences without resisting the urge to wish death on someone or relish in the thought of someone else dying.

so spare me your bullshit moral outrage

I don't see a parallel there at all. There's a difference between insulting someone and saying that you hope a soldier died in pain. Whether you like or dislike Harrison the death of his brother doesn't belong in a conversation under the context used.

If HBB had said, "Go kill yourself you ignorant sack of shit." I'd have no issue with it because it's just a ludicrous insult no one takes seriously.

[purest]

u dont see the parallel ? let me spell it out for u

harrison: i would be glad if you died

hbb: i am glad your brother died

If my kid was getting bullied at school and responded to the kid, "I'm glad your mom died and I hope she was in lots of pain when it happened," he would be in a world of trouble for me. There's a marked difference between insulting someone with meaningless comments and harping on truly painful and life altering events. He didn't even have to acknowledge Harrison's comments.

So no, I don't see the parallel at all. I'm not disputing that Harrison can be a flat out shithead to people on these forums but there are always boundaries and Hasbin crossed that line imo.

I'm sorry you're desensitized to the real world pain of others but if you think it's okay to say what HBB said then you are so out of touch with reality it's pointless trying to give you an alternative perspective to your own.
