Last week, ProPublica and Frontline—two of the best outlets for investigative journalism working today—released a documentary called “Caught in the Crackdown,” examining the ICE sieges of the Twin Cities, Los Angeles, Chicago, and other cities, beginning with an incident that happened in a Minneapolis neighborhood a few days after the murder of Renee Good. In the incident, protesters threw snowballs at ICE agents, who responded by aiming tear gas and pepper balls at protesters’ heads and faces. Multiple experts interviewed in the documentary characterize this and other violent incidents as indefensible.

Quit calling it tear gas. ICE used internationally banned CHEMICAL WEAPONS against US citizens. Anyone who has ever been in contact with the stuff will tell you "tear gas" is a misnomer.
