It would seem a box of m80s or bird bombs and a couple sling shots....would be useful tools.
Oh geez, that’s a great idea, seriously!
Residents with slingshots & M-80 cherry bombs, crew served; One loads his slingshot & draws, the assistant lights, then it’s `on the way’ into the midst of the rioting mobs. With a Wrist Rocket or such one could arc M-80s a hundred yards or more. Chaos & confusion sure to result!
Wish I knew how to spread this wonderful idea!
