Just advance logistics for the next uh, gathering of peaceful protesters who’ve been offended by something.

Seems like a way to issue a general threat: that somewhere are spiked bats that someone intends to use.

I’d say 7.62x51 would be a good, suitable general purpose round.

Or Walking Dead fan portending the appearance of “Lucille.”

Lucille is a baseball bat covered in barbed wire first encountered in Issue 100 of Image Comics’ The Walking Dead. It is used by Negan to kill both human and zombie alike. After Negan’s fall in Issue 126, Dwight became the new possessor of Lucille.

Confuse police officers as to their intended use?

I can guarantee you that not ONE police officer doesn't know what someone intends their use to be.
