Are they fielding any of the sonic devices yet? (Other than on "FutureWeapons")

If my info is correct, and these work by high-freq. noise, a pair of earplugs and music with the bass cranked up on headphones may deter.

Still unsure about protection form the flashlights.

Ah, just have a mirror and be ready to hide your face or something.

No goggles? :sad: Still, since the effect relies on amplitude, color, and frequency, a good pair of heavily tinted / polarized lenses may save you.

Still, in a riot, if they start pulling crowd control measures out, I'd rather be headed the other way anyways...

True. Peaceful protest FTW and all, but I'm concerned that peaceful protests won't be safe in the future.

It'll be ready to colonize in a decade or 3. I'd love to be in on it myself.

The national animal for Antarctica is pegasus? Fitting; a nonexistant animal for a nonexistent nation.
