Pepper spray justification debated

An investigation is underway into the pepper spraying of  nonviolent demonstrators at a California university.  Amid calls for the college chancellor to resign, some expert say police may have been justified.  In the face of angry reaction, some experts say it maybe a better alternative to dragging protestors away.   

          It's Pepper, Sergeant

The students seemed not to resist

As they protested without an assist;
But the cop shot his spray
Across where they lay;
Now lots of folks seem to be pissed.
