Okay, I'm headed out tonight. Figured I should gear up appropriately. I don't have real gear though. Black shirts, pants, the snow caps that pull down over your face. So in other words, dressed like I'm out to rob a bank. Black blends with night well.
Second set of things I'm bringing... baseball bat, aluminum. It is going to work, and it is non lethal. The area I'm in is hot for violent crime, so I wanted to look out for bullets some how. Best I can do though is one of those old circular trash can lids filled with ballistic gel. (http://www.myscienceproject.org/gelatin.html) Figure it out! I'm going to wear the shield on my back for the most part. I'm hoping that the ballistic gel will slow down bullets enough that they will not go through the metal of the lid. This hasn't been tested though.
I spray painted my bat and trashcan lid black, don't want anything shiny on me for potential baddies to see. Post tomorrow to tell you all how it went!
