It will be code-named …. The Covid Defense Helmet.
Or something wittier, but similar.

If I wanted to get into fights with armed guys who were itching for violence and could seriously hurt or kill me I could just drive over to Camden NJ, pin a $100 bill to my shirt and find plenty ready to take the challenge.

I like it better when it's a game and I don't actually get hurt or die. But that's just me.

Makes it tough to get repeat customers though. Have to think long and hard if you get on for Christmas.

The Bee should sue Palmer Luckey for obvious copyright infringement.

Of course, the opposite perspective is that if you kill someone in the game, you actually kill the player.

Yeah, what a sick bastard this guy is.

Unfortunately for this inventor, there aren’t that many James Bond Villains around.
