Alternatively, if someone wanted to send a message/make an example, with
1. Sandbags
2. Self-darkening welder’s helmet
3. Ear protection
4. Chemical weapons protection (gas mask, at a minimum)
5. “Uppers”
6. “Means of self-defense”
one would be an exceptionally tough nut to crack with anything short of a tank or helicopter gunship.
My preference: go for the suits.
