Important reasons why you should own a gas mask/respirator.
These include:
Industrial disasters resulting in the release of harmful chemicals.
Protection from Riot control agents such as CS gas/tear gas.
Protection from potential terrorist attacks with chemical weapons.
Chemical and conventional fires to help protect from smoke inhalation.

A decent gas mask or respirator can be purchased for very little money, the choice varies between military surplus masks or industrial masks.
Industrial masks are a good choice because the masks often sell at competitive prices and filters are easy to come by. Drager and 3M are both very good companies that make industrial respirators and filters.

If you use a military surplus mask you should look for NBC/CBRN filters which give the user protection from most chemical weapons and industrial gases, if you purchase industrial filters look for filters rated as ABEK-P, this means they provide defense against nearly all industrial gasses and also particulate protection.

Remember a gas mask is only as good as the filter attached to it, failure to fit the correct filter to a mask will mean the mask itself will provide no protection.
