I've seen some similar projects, but IMO this seems to better capture some of the fine-grained detail

U.S. District Court Judge Michael Simon: “In a well-functioning constitutional democratic republic, free speech, courageous newsgathering, and nonviolent protest are all permitted, respected, and even celebrated. In an authoritarian regime, that is not the case. Our nation is now at a crossroads."
A federal judge in Oregon has temporarily limited federal officers’ use of force on peaceful protesters outside the Immigration and Customs Enforcement building in Portland. The ruling blocks federal officers from directing or using munitions such as pepper balls and tear gas.
Judge limits federal officers’ use of crowd control munitions at Portland ICE building
The decision Tuesday applies only outside the federal facility in Portland. It blocks federal officers from directing or using “chemical or projectile munitions,” including pepper balls, tear gas and other crowd control munitions.

It's pretty amazing to me the amount of shit that apparently you can Just Do as an NYC mayor. It makes basically every other American politician look like an incompetent loser.

Shit got a little spicy down at the ICE building today. Street medics helped a lot of people, especially the children who were teargassed without warning. I'm just a dork with a helmet and shield, but I was able to help a little as well.

Just went to multi-union anti-ICE protest near Portland ICE building. Big crowd, mostly nurses, educators, SEIU workers, & families. Resolute but calm & peaceful. Big strong ICE men were scared & tear gassed us anyway. I'm ok but won't soon forget elderly folks & babies in distress. #ICEoutforGood

I've seen videos of the indiscriminate use of tear gas on a large crowd that was clearly peaceful and filled with Portlanders of all ages, and well off the macadam facility. We banned tear gas for a reason. I join Councilor Green in calling for enforcement of our laws.
I just got tear gassed along with thousands of union members, many of whom had their families with them. Federal agents at the ICE facility tear gassed children. We must abolish ICE, DHS, and we must have prosecutions. I expect to see enforcement of our city code prohibiting the use of tear gas.

Like many have said, the gassing outside ICE today was really bad, and it impacted a huge group of people. I heard multiple people say they felt like they were going to throw up as they tried to leave the area. (I experienced similar effects.) It followed a peaceful protest led by labor groups.

Could have been my daughter. We were just a few blocks away having passed through that part of the march minutes earlier. Furious doesn’t even describe it. #FuckICE
Not gonna shake the image of a little girl, maybe 6, in agony after a full blast of gas
