I still am having trouble comprehending that we are in a timeline where our own police are gassing US citizens. Don't they all take an oath to 'protect and serve'? Who do they think they are protecting and serving? We the People, that's who. That includes someone who is peacefully protesting these federal lawbreakers and oath breakers.
Did you miss the part where they regularly KILL citizens?
They have always, since their inception, protected and served wealth and privilege, and they've always been willing to gas, torture, kidnap, or murder people to do it.
After this I kinda see why some protesters started wearing the silliest outfits possible.
But man oh man going after anyone with means who tries to help people who the government decides looks like an illegal immigrant is hell of an escalation. Can't have people keeping government accountable.
Technically these particular criminals — oddly, these days, defined as anyone doing anything that displeases a convicted fraud and rapist — don’t want to be aerosolized.
It's from the the Geneva Protocol, here's what Wikipedia says about it:
Use of tear gas in interstate warfare, as with all other chemical weapons, was prohibited by the Geneva Protocol of 1925: it prohibited the use of "asphyxiating gas, or any other kind of gas, liquids, substances or similar materials", a treaty that most states have signed. Police and civilian self-defense use is not banned in the same manner.
Re: "own" people I am referring to the situation in the USA as that is the topic of the post. I thought that would be clear. But more generally I'm referring to signatories of the Chemical Weapons Convention of 1997 like the USA and also followers of the 1925 Geneva Protocol when saying it is illegal and a war crime.

The charges were dropped not too long after this piece was written. It sounded unwarranted and it appears that it was decided to be unwarranted.

It's important to note that this case isn't about someone helping illegal immigrants.
It's about someone helping people protesting us immigration enforcement.
Helping people commit a crime is itself very often a crime, but protesting isn't a crime, so helping them shouldn't be either.

We can't gas enemy soldiers, it's war crime, it's a reason for invading foreign countries... but our own people? No problems.
Who's "we"? Whose own?
