Officer fired two projectiles, skipping them off the ground at retreating protestors, striking plaintiff in the eye causing a complete loss of vision in that eye; court rejects First Amendment retaliation claim on ground that officer did not single plaintiff out either as an individual or as part of a group; court argues one cannot simultaneously single out victims and indiscriminately spray a crowd.
