Is that the video where it appears she's rubbing an onion into her eye?

Anyway, for another example of "they also didn't seem to understand it was serious," the quote from the feet-up-on-the-desk guy:

> "I'll probably be telling them this is what happened all the way to the D.C. jail," Mr. Barnett said.

He's glib about it the same way you might be about spending a night in the drunk tank after getting a little too crazy at Mardi Gras.

I have no interest in defending this woman. However, it appears that onions are a home remedy for being tear gassed or experiencing other chemical irritants.

Oh that's interesting, and presumably means that someone went to the effort of bringing them along in preparation.

It does kinda look like an onion in the first few frames there. Very odd.
