“protestors” ? Come again? Tear Gas is an expensive item (something which we can ill afford to buy from abroad now) and somehow I don’t believe the police would waste such on innocent “protestors” ! Media has done a good job of covering for criminals masquerading as “protestors” but now the game is up and we are beginning to see the true colors of these “protestors!”
