A Salute to Dorli Rainey

Here's Keith Olbermann's Wednesday interview with Dorli Rainey 84 year old pepper sprayed by Seattle cops:



This is amazing and appalling. She is a Holocaust survivor who can remember Joseph Goebbels.

I noted this week when the Seattle cops sprayed her. Here's the rest of the story.

Do you think these police officers would be so quick to use pepper spray /batons/tasers on protesters if the public knew the identities of the police officers, their addresses (and perhaps the locations of their relatives)? Maybe cooler heads would prevail if these people knew they might be on the hook for their behavior.
