They spent so much money trying to cover this up/bury the picture
lol thanks for reminding me
Documents reveal UC Davis spent $175,000 to erase pepper-spray incident from Internet
That's more than three teachers salaries
Not professors, that’s just slightly more than my boss’s salary
I was thinking like.... primary school teachers or something.
