They were technically in the right to disperse the protestors; however, the tear gas and rubber pellets were unnecessary, and the fact that they prevented those at the assembly from leaving and spraying mace up INTO...

  • Bullshit. You're wrong, and this is why:

    Oakland (Pitt's campus, not to be confused with the California town of the same name) is far from the Convention Center to begin with, separated from the area by the Hill District.
