Or, the other way to look at it, is they warned them they were going to get sprayed so as to keep anyone from getting a direct spray in the eyes, the protesters all had their hoods up and their heads down when sprayed, and yet it still stung enough to bring this to an end, and everyone went home that night with no serious injuries, a great story to tell, and if my experience from the late 60s is any indication, I'm pretty sure most if not all the guys in that line got laid that night. All in all, a pretty much a win/win.
