People always get spun up on things that are far from the heart of the matter....

This CNN article is annoying. CNN reporting crap as it often does.


Most people on here want to pretend there are broader things at work here. The United States has all sorts of exports, including arms and riot gear and its accessories. If you're mad about that, talk to your Congressperson. 


As for these guys getting killed, if they hadn't been shot at close range with the canisters, I doubt that they'd get killed. Sure tear gas sucks, it's supposed to suck. It's supposed to deter. But I don't see you all getting your panties in a wad about Ford when some idiot in a Fiesta hits a pedestrian in a third world country. Cars, not intended to kill people, similarly, tear gas, not intended to kill people.
