When you want someone to wipe away the teargas...

When your eyes are streaming with tears and you can't breathe because of pepper spray, what do you do? If you're lucky, you get a street medic - a trained activist who will calmly lead you to a quiet spot, talk you through the pain, and squirt water in your eyes. According to Arwen, thats not all street medics do. You can listen to a 2 minute mp3 here which I recorded this afternoon in the back garden of the Indymedia centre in Cancun.
