Hello Guys
As a point of reference, the OC spray debait is largely being pushed by the ACLU. Those of you who refer to the positional aphyxia aspect of the problem are correct. You might be interested to learn that a medical professor at UC San Diego has dis-proven the entire positional aphyxia argument, to the point that the original reseacher has changed his opinion.
Your employers might want to see to Federal case laws. Graham vs Conner and Robinette vs Barnes. They deal with what cops (security etc) can carry and escalation and de-escalation factors.
