Thuggish police wielding pepper spray at the University of California
Under pressure to resign, the chancellor of the University of California, Davis, established a task force Saturday to look into an incident where a police officer sprayed seated protesters with pepper spray at point blank range.
Linda Katehi told CNN's Don Lemon that she considered the police action on Friday "unacceptable," but stressed she has no plans to step down.

Katehi said the task force made of faculty, students and staff will review the events and provide a report within 90 days.
