They just heavily gassed.

@alissaazar most likely answer is a bad seal, and after hard use, that isn’t uncommon. We used to have to do “fit tests” in the hospital for our respirators, and I don’t “fit” any of them. The bitter crap they aerosolize into a hood over your head always snuck in one way or another. Almost every time I clean my duck coop with a 3M silicone respirator, there is still black dust along my nose when I’m done.
@mcnado I had brand new filters on but I think you’re right. Just tried it on again after decon and I think it’s just on the right side of my face no matter how much I tighten it or adjust it won’t seal properly there’s a little gap. Hopefully there’s a way to fix this really don’t want to have to buy a new mask

Tonight’s collection of spent munitions
Idk if it’s the exposure to HC last Saturday in addition to all the gas tonight or what but I really don’t feel good and i have never experienced chest pain like this in my life. Others messaging me about how nauseous they are.
When I first got treated by a medic they wanted to rinse my eyes first. Which yeah, I couldn’t see, but it was mainly my chest. I couldn’t breathe and it was so painful. Felt better for a little bit, maybe was the adrenaline, but now it’s back and it’s rough.

@alissaazar not sure what material that specific one is, but see what they say for cleaning. May have a bunch of residue on it that prevents a good seal. I have two “identical” 3M ones and one leaks like hell and I’ve never figured out why.
Also, thanks for the updates on this fucking bullshit. We all appreciate your reporting!

So sorry to hear you are feeling poorly. Certainly cumulative exposure is a bad thing. Hopefully you will recover quickly. Take care Alissa. You are amazing.

Someone just told me that they saw multiple people passed out during the first brutal wave of tear gas when there were still a ton of children and elderly folks

Have a question for you. Do the federal agents get a lot of exposure to the gas as well?
One would think that they are breathing some of it everyday. It must be having an effect on them too.

@mastodonmigration I know they have top of the line PPE, but it has to. HC also gets absorbed in the skin. A few months back one of the feds took off his gas mask because even with it on he was choking on the chemicals they deployed

Interesting. Just wondering about the cumulative effect on them. When you read about soldiers in WW1 you learn about how they all went crazy from the gas exposure. That's in addition to the other physical health problems.

This was the view after I moved away for some reprise. You can see after the flash bang grenade goes off a bird flying. Was a heartbreaking reminder it's not just people impacted by this but animals and nature too.
@alissaazar the natural world is going to be suffering from this for a long time, I fear

This far right ICE supporter came to cause problems. There was a scuffle and then he pulled out his mace. He’s still here.
@alissaazar AYIN TACTICAL morale patch on his chest rig. Great pick

The feds shot out a local residents window this evening with these munitions that they also shot at people. I’m not sure that I’ve seen these before, does anybody recognize? (Not my photos)
One kind of looks like a 40mm foam round but that wood looking stuff??

@alissaazar So what you're saying is a Nazi got punched in the face?

@alissaazar It kind of looks like a ceramic to me, which might be used for its heat resistance. Just one thought.

There are photos and videos of the children who were gassed today and
absolutely insane. Their violence truly knows no bounds. -
Will upload camera pics when I get home but for now here’s a pic on the camera. Pointing munitions at faces. Will share stuff as I can it took a million tries to upload last pic
@alissaazar that's a gas canister gun. It won't kill you, but the irritant is capsaicin based. I grow extreme chilly peppers. And we're talking reapers. The secret is to drink milk, and keep a carton handy to wash out the eyes. Lactose breaks down capsaicin from pepper spray and gas canisters. You can't wear face coverings at protests UNLESS it for medical reasons, and an N95 mask minimizes capsaicin inhalation. Also don't touch your genitals. It hurts like a motherfucker. Ask me how I know.
