These high-concentration sprays cause immediate burning, dizziness, and breathing issues, usually fading in 30 minutes—but can be deadly for those with asthma. The incident reignites debate over police force during protests and the real human cost of these “non-lethal” tools. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
