It is unclear whether the highly corrosive and carcinogenic hexachloroethane, or HC smoke, has been deployed in the immigration enforcement surge in Minnesota. It was used during the 2020 protests in Portland, Ore., following the Minneapolis police killing of George Floyd.

Also extremely important to note that despite rumors to the contrary, HC is NOT a nerve agent bsky.app/profile/rabb...

There is extremely bad disinformation going around claiming that ICE is using "nerve gas" in Minneapolis. This is a completely false rumor spread by bad actors and people who don't know better. Nerve agents are literally organophosphate pesticides. They work by hijacking your nervous system. 🧵

In order to identify HC tear gas, there are three characteristics, according to an expert: • An intense orange-colored, metallic fire coming from the canister as it’s burning. • Fire that emits sparks and burns considerably hotter and longer than other grenades. • A white, gray or black smoke.

Remember the outrage when Al-Assad and Gaddafi used chemical weapons, gas, and executions to control people and remain in power? The US went to war to eliminate these killers. Now we have a corrupt US regime doing the same thing - gassing and executing Americans to take all power for themselves.
