What does this pile of stuff look like to you?

If you said "Tactical Body Armor" you would be 100% possibly right, especially if you are a journalist or a police spokesman.

I always envisioned tactical body armor a little differently. I guess I had better do a better inventory of my gear. ;)

Pretty sure that's the non-tactical body armor.

Tapco all the way.

Hate to be trying to wear that.  Looks clumsy.
In thy presence is fulness of joy.
At thy right hand pleasures for evermore.

There is no fixing stupid. But, you can line it up in front of a wall and offer it a last smoke.

There is no such thing as a "transgender" person.  Only mental illness that should be discouraged.

Are those SAW pouches? And was she wearing those upside down, or was it just the canteen?

I was curious about that.  And why do the mag pouches look like someone took a knife to them? Is that normal?

Look like some ratty open flap pouches I've seen for sell.

Those are rubber bullets that police use on mostly peaceful protestors.

I'm more bothered by the canteen facing down, tbh. There are some things that simply aren't done.

Good on the cops for not ventilating her, and talking her down instead.
