Petition created for Fox News host to drink pepper spray
New Yorker Nick Douglas created an online petition to get Megyn Kelly to "eat or drink a full dose of pepper spray on national television," and it has already attracted more than 15,000 signatures.

Why would anyone want Kelly to do that?

Well, it all started when the anchor made some controversial comments to Bill O'Reilly on Monday's edition of "The O'Reilly Factor." The two Fox hosts were discussing the UC Davis police that pepper-sprayed protesters affiliated with the Occupy movement.

Kelly said that peppery spray is "a food product essentially," sparking a great deal of ire from those who know one thing -- pepper spray is nothing like food.

I'd pay one hell of a lot of money to be able to casually spray the entire Faux and Fiends morning show panel.

9. Some of the comments there are really good, too
"As a member of the US Military, nothing would make up for me being away from my family on my birthday/ Thanksgiving more than this. If you don't do this Megyn Kelly, you don't support the troops or love America."

"I'm signing because I'm sick of people lying or being purposefully misleading to people who depend on them for facts. This is applicable to almost all of the staff at Fox News and I would love to see one of them literally eat their words."
