Technically these particular criminals — oddly, these days, defined as anyone doing anything that displeases a convicted fraud and rapist — don’t want to be aerosolized.
We can't gas enemy soldiers, it's war crime, it's a reason for invading foreign countries... but our own people? No problems.
After this I kinda see why some protesters started wearing the silliest outfits possible.

But man oh man going after anyone with means who tries to help people who the government decides looks like an illegal immigrant is hell of an escalation. Can't have people keeping government accountable.

The charges were dropped not too long after this piece was written. It sounded unwarranted and it appears that it was decided to be unwarranted.
I still am having trouble comprehending that we are in a timeline where our own police are gassing US citizens. Don't they all take an oath to 'protect and serve'? Who do they think they are protecting and serving? We the People, that's who. That includes someone who is peacefully protesting these federal lawbreakers and oath breakers.
Only some police departments have such an oath, and frankly, it's just words.

Laws and court precedence matter. And the police are regularly defended by both, regardless of guilt.

Never trust the police, kids. Especially in America, where standing court precedent holds that the police are neither required nor expected to know what the law says.
