The first time is *really* grim. You don’t know how long it will last, or how bad it will get. It tastes like a burnt match x1000. You want to choke and vomit at the same time. With even minimal gear, and a bit of experience, it loses the fear fact quickly and just sucks. A lot. https://twitter.com/MysterR33/status/1170057071624183809 …

Replying to @HongKongHermit
Tear gas is the opposite of a crowd control agent. It only deters people exposed for the first time—bystanders or a very innocent group. Everyone else gears up quickly and learns to deal with it. Plus it just angers people to be sprayed like an insect—so entrenches determination.
