I was thinking I’d have to recuse myself from spreading this rumor because I made it up.

The most common compounds are known as chloroacetophenone (CN) and chlorobenzylidenemalononitrile (CS). Other examples include chloropicrin (PS), which is also used as a fumigant (that is, a substance that uses fumes to disinfect an area); bromobenzylcyanide (CA); dibenzoxazepine (CR); and combinations of various agents. > > Where riot control agents are found and how they are used > > ``` > Riot control agents are used by law enforcement officials for crowd control and by individuals and the general public for personal protection (for example, pepper spray). > CS is also used in military settings to test the speed and ability of military personnel to use their gas masks. > > ``` Barr needs to learn to read. ---
