“Crossfire” panelist Van Jones has arrived in Ferguson, Mo., and has declared that the situation on the ground looks “as bad as it looks on the tee-vee.”

@VanJones68 @CNN @cnnbrk Military Police were brought in because state/count/local did not have enough officers. MP's use Humvees.

@VanJones68 @CNN @cnnbrk You should open a small business in Ferguson and then thank the MP's for saving it from rioters..

CNN even provided Jones with his own gas mask. Tear gas apparently doesn’t distinguish between rioters and TV pundits.
#Ferguson=no joke. Peeps at @CNN handed me THIS before I even got a mic on. #GasMasks for reporters — in USA? Yup. pic.twitter.com/aUXA8VaudP

@VanJones68 @CNN Psst. Van, buddy, no one else around you is wearing one… You've been pranked.

@VanJones68 @CNN Also, the seals already been pulled off the bottom of your canister… depending on when that was, that mask may not help..
