Does anyone remember Greensboro? I wonder if that's gonna happen soon?
I think soft body armor may be a necessity in the coming years. |

Serious question: why not wear a plate carrier and hard plates to one of these shindigs? Outfit yourself just like LE. Plates, riot helmet with face shield, and gloves with poly knuckles. Add in some shoulder pads and some groin/thigh protection, and you're ready to party. Actively participating in a riot laws vary by state. In some states committing a misdemeanor while wearing armor upgrades to felony. YMMV |

Ride a motorcycle. Wear a full face motorcycle helmet, motorcycle jacket, motorcycle boots, and motorcycle gloves. Motorcycle all the things. You will be nicely armored, with some good shit-kicking boots on, some damn fine armor over your knuckles, and your head/face will be fully protected. Plus, you will look cool riding with the flags on the back of your bike. I'd also wear soft Armor under pads just in case. |

My number one choice would be a small shield. Anything thrown at you (except the back) you can block. Think of it as a more intense version of dodgeball.
Next helmet. But something that will not obstruct your movement or field of vision. Fingerless gloves. I would take mobility over armor. |

motocross, hockey, and football probably have all you'll need along with some sort of respirator...
personally I think everyone on the right should be dressed like high tech Roman soldiers and train as such able to work as a single unit locking shields working spears and short swords... or go all leather like the ancient samurai which would intimidate the heck out of em....

Use a 3M full face respirator instead of ski goggles and half mask. It offers much better protection, and visibility.

Motocross armor looks like it would work very well for the purpose. Stick man's baseball helmet and goggles combo seems spot on as well as looking badass.
Gloves, groin protector, shin guards. Good boots. Pouch with water and/or wipes for cleaning off and a backup pair of goggles. |
