Protesters prepare to be maced and tear gassed by police RNC

After being told to disperse by the police, a group of young protesters soak bandanas in a mixture of antacid and water to help neutralize the effects of tear gas and mace. This is in Saint Paul, Minnesota on the night of September 4, 2008--the night John McCain was in town to accept the Republican nomination for president.

@F40PHWIN What are you, 10? Unless you didn't notice, these hippy protesters are armed and about to fight trained, armored, and fully equipped and armed Riot Police. Hell if there is a pussy anywhere here, it's you for not being there fighting with them. Hell I can bet that if there are riots in your neighborhood, your hide under the bed.
