Bernardo Bajana’s Offensive Police Shield
Bad news for Occupy protesters: Bernado Bajana has created a new riot shield which does much more than just shield officers.
Bad news for Occupy protesters: Bernado Bajana has created a new riot shield which does much more than just shield officers. Inspired by the shell of the armadillo, this has an adjustable visor which allows officers to be protected from any projectiles launched from in front or above. Furthermore, if things get real rowdy, the shield is lined with multiple taser strips. Furthermore, it has a built-in pepper spray which can reach up to 30 feet. Both of these attacks are conveniently trigger-operated.
Regardless of your thoughts on protesting and police misuse of power, you've got to admit that this is a pretty nifty piece of design. It would be pretty handy to have one of these when you brave the crowds at the upcoming Boxing Day sales. Those crowds can get pretty pushy.
