For our #democracy and #environment, I enjoyed attending the @350pdx.bsky.social Day of Action event this evening about the Dangers of Tear Gas with Portland City @councilorkanal.bsky.social as one of the speakers. #DemocracyMatters #DemocracyInAction #BanTearGas #TearGasSucks
Tear gas violates the Geneva Convention. There is absolutely no justification for any government to use it in war, no less use it on its people.
#BanTearGas
@cdarwin Tear gas and ALL gas weapons are outlawed by international treaty. Use of them is a war crime.
Their use by the police, ICE, or any other agency of the United States government or any of its constituent states should be absolutely illegal. Every state should outlaw them, and pass laws […]
Legal Distinction: Warfare: The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons bans the use of tear gas (riot control agents) as a method of warfare. Domestic Law Enforcement: The same agents are permitted for domestic police actions.
#BanTearGas from being allowed in your state.
(It's illegal in war)
Commit a war crime to keep the public safe, that's how you can tell it's America.

Please protect yourself around tear gas! #banteargas
"tear gas was classified as a chemical weapon in 1993 and banned from use in international warfare, law enforcement officers are still allowed to use it on civilians in the United States"

Tear gas = chemical weapon banned in warfare by the Chemical Weapons Convention & Geneva Protocol, but a major loophole allows domestic law enforcement to use it against civilians. Tell ur reps: BAN use of tear gas against ppl exercising their constitutional right to peaceful assembly #BanTearGas
