Cops Behaving Badly: Death by pepper spray

Florida police bound, gagged and pepper-sprayed a mentally ill man until he died. Interestingly, this was reported by FUX Snooze, in a non-snoozing mode for a change. Let’s hear Megyn Fucking Kelly try to explain how “a food product, essentially” could cause the death of a depressed and vulnerable individual. I can hardly wait…

And if you needed proof of my contention that mental illness is profoundly misunderstood in our society, here you go. When the only tool you have is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail. And when all you have is Tasers and pepper spray, every unmedicated brain-sick person looks like a disorderly drunk, I guess. I’m just thankful that neither of these awful fads in police brutality was in common use the last time I was ill.
