Using tear gas is a war crime banned under the Geneva convention. But states have no qualms using them against civilians. Being maced point-blank is worse.
Not because it’s tear gas but because it’s difficult to know what gas is being used on you in the battlefield.
The US is no stranger to war crimes but in general you’re free to do whatever you want to your own people.
What the fuck is that thumbnail. Spraying pepper spray into a restrained persons face at inches is nothing but punitive.
Cruelty is an integral part of the American values.

“Is this particular individual the unfit mother?”
That’s some thick-ass spray too. It’s more than merely punitive. It’s vindictive and sadistic.
It’s this “non-lethal” bullshit governments thugs love, they think it’s better to just blind people.
Welcome to United States law and immigration enforcement.
