The Trump administration defended the use of OC pepper spray by Border Patrol agents against migrants attempting to cross the U.S. border from Tijuana.

Police shot and killed 29-year-old David Montana at a movie theater near Nashville, Tennessee, during a screening of Mad Max: Fury Road.

A task force report slammed the UC Davis Police Department for the "disproportionate" pepper-spraying of students.

The hosts discuss the viral video of Lt. John Pike pepper-spraying students at UC Davis. They mock Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly for her comment that pepper spray is "a food product, essentially." They describe the nonchalant attitude of the officer and the resulting internet memes featuring the "casually peppering cop."

Police at the University of California, Davis, used military-grade pepper spray on a group of seated student protesters who had locked arms.
