   You can extinguish tear gas canisters!

   Wearing heat-proof gloves, submerge the canister in a wide-mouthed water jug containing baking soda, dish soap, and/or vegetable oil—3 tablespoons of each per liter of water.

   Cover the top with one hand, just enough to keep the gas from getting out, and shake the jug.

   Never seal a bottle containing an active tear gas canister—you don't want it to explode.

   One role you could play at demonstrations is to show up prepared to protect your fellow human beings from toxic gas, in case the mercenaries deploy it.
