7. Very good advice for the eyes

Full fat milk or (better) half & half can be used on the skin dabbed up the nose, and swished out in the mouth. Capsaicin binds to fats and is rendered more inert as an irritant, it's why Mexican restaurants that cater to suburban white folks serve a big blob of sour cream with their food.

Pepper spray is nasty stuff. It should be illegal to use both it and CS gas against civilian populations. Charges should be filed against anyone who uses it against people exercising their constitutional right to protest injustice, and that means thugs using bear spray because they're thugs.
