And the rain washes out of the air? Interesting
Yeah, it knocks it down pretty fast. The CS dissolves in water so rain kind of stops a lot of it before it can get to your eyes/nose
The rain doesn't significantly mitigate the tear gas: There's just clouds of it. But you're right that both sides have been mostly solicitous to the media. A p100 filter isn't enough; even respirators aren't fully effective, and you need eye cover.
