Tear gas, formally known as a lachrymator agent or lachrymator, sometimes colloquially known as mace, is a chemical weapon that causes severe eye and respiratory pain, skin irritation, bleeding, and blindness. In the eye, it stimulates the nerves of the lacrimal gland to produce tears.

It was a weapon of choice in the first World War, and these days, law enforcement uses a less potent recipe of tear gas to pacify a room or control a crowd. Discover what’s inside the sensory-attacking irritant that can be deadly if used at high concentrations.

How long does tear gas last?
At low strength, the effects of tear gas should last no longer than 20 minutes. People should get away from the chemicals and wash any traces from their bodies to help limit damage to their health.

How do you relieve tear gas?
Hong Kong protesters carry around spray bottles with a baking soda and water solution (three teaspoons of powder for every 8.5 ounces of liquid), which they spray in their face and mouth to neutralize the effects of tear gas particles.

So what should you do if you’re exposed to tear gas or pepper spray?
Get away from the area, and wash with copious amounts of water—especially your hands and face, Blum says. Kaszeta also recommends “flapping your arms like a chicken” to shake off loose particles and help evaporate volatile components.

1. Water accelerates the breakdown of CS via hydrolysis to malononitrile and o-chlorobenzaldehyde. Alkaline water (pH 9) substantially accelerates that reaction, though JK cautions against using high-pH water on your eyes.

2. Hong Kong protesters have used water saturated with baking soda, which creates a basic solution, to treat exposure to tear gas.

3. OC, on the other hand, doesn’t undergo hydrolysis. Still, water can soothe its effects, and soap can help wash the irritating compound away.

4. Some protesters use milk or milk of magnesia to neutralize the riot-control agents on the scene, but little to no data supports those treatments as effective. While milk might provide some cooling relief to irritation, it doesn't do much to help people exposed to tear gas. “With pepper spray, milk helps break down those oils,”

I also heard about chewing alligator pepper, that it drastically reduces the effects of tear gas on the eye.

Don't know how true that is though, I'll find out.

Tell them ooo

Best thing to do,

If you're in what was supposed to be a "Peaceful Protest" and you see some of the protesters starting to get troublesome or taunt simply fall back from the front line.

War is not exactly won in the battlefield. The killings and counter killings is not what will make your protest effective... Rather the fear of an uprising due to increasing numbers of people saying "NO" is what will push the authorities/government
