Nice try, no cigar

The tear gas was used Sunday, so that doesn't count.

Pepper spray isn't a chemical.

Of course it's a chemical. Just because capsicum (active ingredient: capsaicin) is organic doesn't mean it's not a chemical. The chemical formula for capsaicin is C18H27NO3. If you can write out the chemical formula for a substance, it's a chemical.  And were they using the organic or synthetic pepper balls? I'm guessing that's what he's playing on - if it's not synthetic, it's not a chemical.  Wrong.

Technically, it's not a gas, but it will definitely cause tears.  It will fucking burn.  The interviewer should have challenged him.

But that's beside the point, which is: you fired on peaceful protesters with serious - and possibly deadly - irritants and beat them with clubs as well.

Impeach Pompeo.

UPDATE:

The DOJ headed by AG Barr?  That DOJ?
