I cannot speak about LA, but in Chicago, the crowds were moving very quickly and the streets (have you ever seen Michigan Avenue) were full of cars with ordinary folks as well as tourists. So, you think tear gas is really the best call in that situation? The crowds of kids would just run into the next block and everyone else would be choking on tear gas. How would tear gas affect the drivers, passengers and bystanders? A lot of Villages Monday morning quarterbacking - I think.
