I came across this article/video clip while reviewing the Pepper Spraying incident at University of California Davis, involving the pepper spraying of 10 peaceful student protesters. I definitely appreciated seeing Judith Butler's view on the OWS movement, and found it refreshing to have yet another strong, educated voice occupying (pun intended) the movement. Butler's connection to the movement is fairly clear, as she is a theorist at the University of California Berkley, which has been a prime site for OWS demonstrations.
