A little tip from my friend in Oaxaca, in terms of preparing for teargas:

"Yeah, vinegar-soaked cloth over your face works, but the best ... we just discovered this ... the best is Coca-Cola."

How scary and yet kind of awesome is that?

That is pretty awesome. I've always heard the best is lemon juice.

Well, perhaps someday I'll find out.

Especially since Vincente Fox used to be president of Coke, Mexico.

I personally found that vinegar didn't help all that much, but I think I inhaled a dose with my head down, so the gas got underneath the mask, if that makes sense.
