Bag’s Take On Pepper Spray Cop Spraying His Own Cops In City Park:
1. Having to be the big man, Officer Pike — in one shot — reduces peeps to Lilliputians.
2. You bet they’ve circled the wagons. 3. Not sure if it’s Portland, Oakland, or where, but for the next week, at least, could just as well be the Davis cops there. 4. What goes around comes around — right, Officer Balogna?
