If the police want to shut down riots, use an LRAD. I’m amazed that the entire UK doesn’t have just one.....

I’m really glad to hear that!

Every time I see one of those masks, I feel a sort of red tide rising up behind my eyes...

Good luck to you and stay safe!

I keep a nice piece of pipe in the car and truck for “checking the tires”.

I have one of those. I call it my lateral cranial impact enhancer.

That's all right. So am I ...

... and I always got to bat second in the line up because I could hit behind the runner and was fast enough to beat the throw to first ...

You need to reread the post ,he is talking about the shopkeepers standing guard to protect what they work for not the hoodlums.

Thanks for reminding me, I owe ReleaseTheHounds an apology.

I read it completely wrong. Too quick on the keyboard...

Apologies RTH, I will try to do better in the future.

No apologies needed... I thought I probably didn’t make my point clear enough but thanks to Nebr FAL owner for clarifying.

Brits in centuries past used bows and arrows, swords, boiling oil even. Plus they use catapults.
I gues castle defensiveness has become a lost art.
