Portland Protester Uses Lacrosse Stick to Throw Tear Gas Back at Federal Officers
Portland, Oregon, protester intercepted teargassing attempts with a lacrosse stick on Wednesday night, while others used leaf blowers to clear the area of the gas.
The demonstrators' defense tactics were recorded in a video shared on Twitter early Thursday morning. It shows a group gathered outside of Portland's barricaded federal courthouse. When authorities toss tear gas canisters over a recently constructed fence surrounding the building, one protester uses the lacrosse stick to launch them back over the barrier.

I am amazed at how well they are making the DHS goons choke on their own fumes. The level of organization and cooperation here is to be commended. It is so impressive.
