Just a little technical note;
White phosphorus is not considered a chemical weapon because it operates primarily by heat and flame rather than toxicity, making it an incendiary weapon. Its use is governed by Protocol III of the Convention on Conventional Weapons (CCW)
Not saying that it can’t be used in bad ways but it has legitimate uses in combat areas (mostly as a flair) so the issue of supply, etc is not as simple as were it an actual chemical weapon
People have a real magical thinking about fifteen min cities and this is a good example of it, people don’t just want to go to the nearest bar as if they’re all interchangable they want to go to a bar that suits them with their friends who might well live more then fifteen min away
