Since #Trump is starting to declare US cities as #WarZones , does that mean they are considered #battlefields from a legal perspective?

With that in mind, if they’re actually battlefields, it’s no longer legal for them to use #teargas on the population.

The distinction between battlefield and domestic use:

Battlefield Use: Both the 1925 Geneva Protocol and the 1993 #Chemical #Weapons Convention (CWC) prohibit the use of tear gas as a method of #warfare in armed conflicts.

#Republicans embracing right wing #extremism have created an America that has some voting places resembling potential #warzones.

REPUBLICANS did this. The #GOP did this.

Remember this well today, and forever more.

Ask your local "moderate" Republican politicians what they think about this. Ask THEM why THEY have allowed THEIR PARTY to create this situation.

DEMAND AN ANSWER.
