FERGUSON, Missouri – A federal judge ruled Thursday that police can no longer use tear gas on protesters without declaring an illegal assembly, giving them fair warning and time to vacate the area.

Appointed by Bush 41.

Lets hope the people who whine about cops not doing enough take note of this.

Ferguson protesters rioters win injunction to stop cops using tear gas

[Louis Foxwell]

It takes 10 seconds to declare an illegal assembly plus another 30 seconds to demand the area be cleared. After which guns will blaze, but no gas.

That’s ok. US troops are not allowed to use CS at all.

Replace tear gas with Adamsite.

I saw a demo on TV about that; quite effective.

I think it's only being developed for the Military. No?

[Blood of Tyrants]

As soon as they break the first window or throw the first rock at police, it has gone from a peaceful protest, to an illegal riot. THEN shoot the teargas.

How ‘bout an injunction that the rioters can’t obstruct traffic, trespass, assault people, steal things, or burn buildings.

Oh, yeah ...

That’s already THE LAW!!!

Warm a few heads with nightsticks.

Pray America wakes up

The police treating them differently them other large crowds. You bet. Yes, because they are there to riot, loot, and burn. Not like a large crowd at a Thanksgiving parade.

[bgill]

The judge will come back and claim 30 seconds wasn’t enough time for them to leave the area. Six, twelve, 36 hours might not be fair, either.

What a ‘kinder gentler Amurrica’ could look like..
