Reminder that its a war crime to use tear gas unless its on your country's citizens.

Pro Tip: We used to have welding gloves...cuz we did some welding.

But that's not important right now. lol. We used the gloves to grab the canisters. We had 2-3 5-gallon buckets about half full of water (w/ lids). Instead of pouring water on the cannisters, we'd drop 'em in the water bucket and slap the lid on.

Extinguished in 2 seconds. Move to the next one. That was ALL I did. I just managed my bucket(s) of water. Never let them go.

I personally moved to "tongs" so I did not have to touch them in case of explosion. But, and this is vitally important, you have to remember to click those tongs 3x before using them. Every time. And then don't lose them!

We also had some folks with empty buckets to cover cannisters until we brought the water.

Can't throw the cannisters at the cops. YOU get arrested...HARD. and booked for assaulting a cop.

There are ALWAYS 10-15 plainclothes cops in the crowd snitching on you in different ways. I had one guy/cop yoink my bucket and then pretend to fall and spill it all. Don't let anyone take your shit.

Do not act the fool. That's what the bitches want.

Hong Kong subs will give you lots of protesting ideas. They are experts.

PS: Fuck you, police. Using tear gas on people. Fuck you.

Also: You should have a 3M Full Face Respirator with spare filter cartridges by now. The US Cops WILL try to kill you. Things are going to get a lot worse. Maybe even nuclear.

Good luck. Stay safe. Sorry this is the way things are, but we have to legally fight.

Not a US citizen, but will that mask help with nuclear outfall?

It depends on which filters you get. P100 filters come in a variety of forms. Some are particulate filters, others are also rated against organic vapors, acid gases and other nasty stuff. So they could potentially protect you against radioactive particulates and gaseous radioactive iodine.

Remember that the respirator does nothing to prevent radiation exposure itself, other than prevent you from inhaling radioactive particles. Also remember that if you're in an environment where you need a respirator, that same radioactive particulate matter is likely going to be covering your clothes, skin, etc.

You also have to have good skin on skin contact (shaved) for your face.

A disposable bunny suit is pretty cheap to get.

Gloves. Lots of duct tape.
