Palestinians advise Ferguson protesters on coping with tear gas
Al-Jazeera reports that Palestinians are providing Americans in Ferguson, MO — where protesters have clashes with police over the shooting of an unarmed Black teen — with advice on how to cope with tear gas, based on their experience with Israeli forces.
Below are a couple of tweets by Palestinians selected by the news outlet.
Don't Keep much distance from the Police, if you're close to them they can't tear Gas. To #Ferguson from #Palestine

Solidarity with #Ferguson. Remember to not touch your face when teargassed or put water on it. Instead use milk or coke!
