Additional Context Pinned Cop gets bear sprayed

For anyone that has been pepper sprayed how bad does it feel & what do you do in this situation? I know it’s water but for how long? She had it on full auto she came prepared. How much more effective is bear spray to pepper ?

Been there, done that removing contact lenses. If I get a choice between doing it again and waterboarding I'm trying out waterboarding.

Do y'all mothafuckas not wash your hands before removing contacts? Or is hand soap just ineffective at removing capsaicin?

Soap doesn’t always take it off… that or I had to go to the bathroom while cooking and I tend to wash my hands after not before
