I have no experience with CS whatsoever...I do however remember the Waco disaster...It was claimed at the time that the tank that breached the building in many places was pumping CS gas into the structure and it was said (by some) that there were over 400 canisters of CS gas that landed inside the compound...The FLIR videos showed cannisters being fired into the buildings and fires starting...
They appear to have different types of CS gas...One is the normal stuff and another is pyrotechnic or incendiary gas which is used to start fires...
Incendiary CS was used a number of years ago to burn out a killer named Dorner from a cabin he was holed up in...
If one digs deep enough he can find where both kinds of CS gas were used at Waco...
If it burned, it wasn’t CS. LE has all sorts of pyrotechnic devices. So does the US military. But again if it was flammable it wasn’t CS. Obviously it can be used in conjunction with other pyros but it isn’t ‘incendiary CS’.
I have. Its some REALLY bad stuff. You will run through walls to get away from it.
My experience is in corrections in 15 states. Both on the line and as a consultant. We never had a fire and it was announced as non-inflammatory. I will admit, I am not familiar with what the FBI used and I believe they had military with them.
