Gonna add a few resources; the first one is on tear gas, from a few summers ago.
It was produced by Danielle Guldin a Marine Corps instructor who taught people to deal with CS.

How to Stay Safe During a Tear Gas
Attack - From a US Marine
📣📣📣📣📣
This is for the protesters
I am a former Nuclear, Biological, Chemical Defense Specialist in the US Marine Corps. Step by step, this
is how to stay as safe as possible when exposed to tear gas. I hope this is helpful.
EDIT: there is now a
captioned video available on YouTube for the deaf and hard of hearing! Stay safe.
EDIT: HERE ARE SOME FAQ's!
Q: Does milk help?.
A: NO! Milk is a low level acid and will make the sensation worse/last longer. THE BEST AND FASTEST way to alleviate symptoms is fresh air! Wait a LONG time (hours) before showering. Wash hands
with soap at any time.
Q: Will it cause an asthma attack?
A: Tear gas is not specifically designed to trigger an asthma attack, however it is a possibility.
Please note: I am NOT a medic nor posturing as one. Follow the protocol you're familiar with and get to a hospital
if you feel an attack coming on. PLEASE talk to your doctor about any/all specific health concerns before putting yourself in an uncertain position.
Q: How about a mini fan?
A: YES! Great idea. A mini fan will help create airflow, therefore helping the powder dry.*
Q: Leaf blower?
A: Not advisable, especially at close range. The wind is too strong, and too direct. Runs the risk of pushing
powder further into the pores. Mini fan for a gentle wind is a good idea.
Q: Can I wear my contacts?
A: Not advisable. Wear glasses if you have them. lf powder gets between your eye and your contact, it could potentially scratch your cornea.
Q: Should I wear swim goggles?
A: YES! Excellent idea! Thick plastic swim or ski goggles, when worn correctly, could be very effective
in protecting your eyes!
‼️Note: powder will collect around the outside. Be careful taking them off.
Q: What else can I wear to protect myself?
A: Long sleeves, pants, high socks, closed-toe shoes, scarves, hats, and gloves will do a lot to protect your
skin! Cover as much of yourself as you can. It won't stop all of the powder from reaching your skin, but a barrier will stop some.
Q: Will it come out of my clothes?
A: YES! Wash them separately from other laundry twice. It will all come out.

“Ahmaud was kind. He was well-mannered. Ahmaud, most of all, was loved by his family and peers. Ahmaud didn’t deserve to go the way he went.” We stand with the Arbery family in love and solidarity as we continue the fight for #JusticeForAhmaud. #IRunWithAhmaud #BlackLivesMatter https://twitter.com/ABC/status/1258438016043016197
