"We all know that various police agencies are trying to prevent the
videotaping of encounters between their officers and citizens.
Here's a case where a Mesquite, Texas cop who is clearly a serious jerk -- sorry, I don't have a more polite term available in this case -- was videotaped torturing a baby squirrel with pepper spray in front of screaming middle school children and teachers.
Outside of what he did to a harmless squirrel (from which he kept backing up as if in fear), he apparently exposed everyone present to pepper spray fumes (hear the teachers warn the children not to breathe them).
If this guy would treat a baby squirrel this way, imagine how he might treat people. Studies show over and over again that animal mistreatment is one of the key predictors of human mistreatment." - YT
