There seems to be a lot of bikers in the alt right party. Why not use them as cavalry to rout Antifa? Arm them with sticks, put them on their motorcycles, and let them loose. Antifacucks will run at these overwhelming odds.
Also deploy a squad of 10 people on foot with a squad leader of some sort. Not only would this be more effective on the field but it would also encourage each squad member to back each other up; not afraid of getting swarmed.
The squad leader should be distinguished by wearing a certain type of helmet or clothing. Instead of everyone wearing a mismatch of colors, why not get organized and create a standard uniform to improve cohesion?
This may seemed far fetched but someone should also bring a trumpet that would relay battle commands.
Wear a motorcycle helmet, a mask, and a durable outwear such as a motorcycle jacket or milsurp. Wear pads too.
I think some sort of phlanax thing would be pretty cool too. Shields and sticks.
Finally everyone should take up a combat sport such as boxing or Muay Thai. Learn how to defend yourself and this will help you out a lot against those wild haymakers

Iron Mountain Armory has battle ready samurai armor reproductions that start at about $1000.

Samurai armor was basically ancient riot gear and is pretty comfortable, and since its a historical reproduction i doubt you can get into any legal trouble.

If you took the basic principles of samurai armor and built it using modern materials it would work extremely well. Make all the soft parts from layers of kevlar or the even newer polymers that are stronger. Replace all rigid parts with high modulus carbon fiber easy to make anything with modern pre-preg.

Carbon fiber is absolute shit for impact resistance

>>33675695
Youre not going to get bullet resistance by replacing the fabrics with kevlar unless you wantit to basically be a half inch thick coat.

If you mean for stab and cut resistance then they already have chainmail on the joints and just about everywhere else has steel rings woven into the fabric.

There's a brilliance in this. The end game for the Alt Right is the elimination of those rights (unless the individual is a libertarian), but unlike the Antifa they are smart enough to know that they can get sympathy points and recruits by appealing to those very same rights.

Violence only works at stopping Fascists if EVERYONE comes out in support of violence. If they don't have a Cable Street style crowd, the Antifa are basically viewed as larping faggots.

So NAZIs spout some bullshit about killing all the jews, Antifa takes it seriously and responds incorrectly, the NAZIs cry "freedom" and then most people end up supporting the NAZI. Antifa doesn't understand how politics or people work so they continue using the same methods when they didn't have popular support to begin with which sends more people in favor of NAZIs.

It's a wonderful thing if you're a right winger.

Australia def has some kind of SCA style organization. Find out where they're having an event, buy a set of armor from them.

The "alt-right" is a political label attached to a far fringe of the right that has been apart of American Politics since the 60s and the ANP. Just like radical leftists gained a foothold at the same time and literally started throwing bombs in the 70s. It is a way leftists can label and demonize their political opponents because nazi and racist have lost their touch.

>>33685217
>The "Alt-Right", like many political groups, may be filled with a bunch of retreads that just want to cause havoc, but you clearly don't know what their goals are.

The Alt Right, as coined by Richard Spencer, explicitly have those goals.

Duh. Read a book. Libertarianism is not about individual liberty. Demographics which correlate to a degeneration of a voluntary capitalist system (gays, jews, blacks, etc) must necessarily be removed in order to maintain a Libertarian system. Race mixers contribute to the degeneration of such a system and would have to be removed.

>>33685251

Reports from Berkely indicate that situational awareness is extremely important, Keeping an eye out for when to stand firm/when to advance, when to flank/when you're being flanked, when your buddy nearby is about to catch a bottle to the back of the head etc. Make sure you're backing up your comrades.
>The squad leader should be distinguished by wearing a certain type of helmet or clothing. Instead of everyone wearing a mismatch of colors, why not get organized and create a standard uniform to improve cohesion?
Uniform ala antifas mall ninja black hoodies is important in avoiding legal consequences, you don't want witnesses or the media to be able to ID you or your clothes. Marking a leader does the exact opposite of that. Bad idea. Similarly, a cheap outer layer that can easily be discarded (coupled with a change of headgear) can help keep cops from picking you up in the aftermath.
On the other hand, the woman-punching manlet from Berkely looked reespectable af swinging his fists in a preppy blue oxford and tan trousers - makes for sweet pr. A flag decal on your helmet or streaming from your cub might do a similar job.
>This may seemed far fetched but someone should also bring a trumpet that would relay battle commands
A megaphone that can be used to either shout commands or lead chans of U-S-A etc can be had for pretty cheap.
>Wear a motorcycle helmet, a mask, and a durable outwear such as a motorcycle jacket or milsurp
I wouldn't recommend a motorcycle helmet; poor vision/hearing, too easily pulled off and then swung into your face, poor ventng when not riding at speed. A helmet is definitely essential given the bricks being thrown about at Berkley (seriously, they looked lethal) but I'd want some sort of military surpus helmet with a chinstrap.

The whole idea is to specifically buy shit that seems like you didn't specifically buy it.

I came up with this. This should be quick and easy to put on or take off in a hurry as needed, the gear should fit in the helmet except the vest which you can wear underneath the polo under which may be whatever undershirt you want (I recommend a neoprene or rashguard kinda thing) and it should provide decent armor. It could be improved by forearm or shin guards, but that'd make it less quick to put on and take off. The kneepads that I have on there are good. You're more likely to need knee protection than shin, specifically, from what I've seen.

If anyone has any suggestions or something, lemme know. Always willing to improve it.

>>33699453
I'd recommend wearing a tight-ish hoody over it which you've cut the hood off of so it can't be grabbed, vest over the polo, and gloves duct-taped to the polo sleeves. Polo tucked in. Have a pocket knife on hand to cut the tape if needed. Consider getting the fireproof gloves if you wanna throw shit back, but don't ever try to throw back the M80s. You'll blow your fucking fingers off. Also, if you see someone putting M80s in glass bottles, take that motherfucker out top priority. Him and people with padlocks at the end of chains.

Replace the knee pads with shin and knee guards, and you could cut down on cost by not buying such expensive clothes.
I have 3 pair of wrangler cargo pants that were about $15 and have lasted me comfortably for 4 years.
Also as much as i love Bell's riot helmet, a standard good quality bike helmet, shatter proof goggles, and a respirator would be cheaper and better.

>>33700477
I tried hard to find shin and knee guards with great reputations, but every one I looked at had complaints of people getting chemical burn or inconsistent craftsmanship such as a different set of straps than usual being on them.

Is there a set you like? I'm afraid I'm unable to find a set myself that I'd trust to give to anyone. I intend to create sets of equipment, create a training manual, document ANTIFA strategies, and some other shit and then disseminate the packet to anyone that wants it. ANTIFA would get their hands on it too, but those lanky faggots are less likely to actually do something with it.

You're right about the clothes, too.

Regarding the helmet, one of my biggest concerns is keeping the helmet on the wearer's head even when swarmed. I don't want it able to be kicked off or torn off in a scuffle. Is there a baseball helmet you trust that has some method of being secured?

Thanks a ton, btw.

For that price you could buy an actual set of riot gear.

Damascas ForceFlex riot gear costs about $400-$500

>>33672317
if you're going to waste your money on stupid shit at least get some weed or alcohol and have fun. Don't waste money on some crazy scenario where you might for some reason be in a riot on accident.

>>33700647
I'd like to bring the cost way the fuck down. I wanted to design it so that someone could ditch it all if they felt the need to (either hide it or just leave it behind) and for it to be innocent-looking enough for someone to be able to get away with the explanation of happening to have had it on-hand. I also wanted it to have a respectable appearance, have our overall tone be one of civility and professionalism in the face of their absurd ISIS cosplay.

If you can think of ways to bring the cost down and still maintain that overall appearance, I would love to hear it. That kind of statement is usually made sarcastically, but I mean it genuinely. This is the best I can do and still have confidence that someone would be sufficiently protected by following it.

>>33700767
thrift stores.

>>33700806
Well yes, of course, but I cannot query/predict thrift store availability or pricing. Finding alternatives they personally feel are superior is up to the individual, such as already having a piece of equipment on hand. I'm sure many people here have kneepads of some sort already; craftsmen, soldiers, etc.

Thank you, though. I should probably mention it in the document.

>>33700767
Try getting a secondhand leather or heavy fabric jacket and make a coat of plates out of it with Kydex. The same would work for rio-ready Levis with Kydex knee cops and shin splints riveted to the inside. A thin layer of closed cell foam behind the plates would seem advisable as well.

>Australia
Can't you just fill some jars up with venomous spiders and throw them at people?

>>33700880
My intent is to have the set be able to be shed at a moment's notice and replaced readily. Disposable gear which may be explained away if apprehended while wearing as just being some stuff you happened to have laying around for one reason or another in addition to being as innocent-looking as possible to not draw attention.

Your ideas are good, but require significant craftsmanship on the part of the wearer or the outsourcing of its creation, and I'd rather have piecemeal professional-level gear that may be used at least once at full effectiveness for certain before needing replacement even after heavy contact. I also want it to be breathable to prevent heatstroke considering the typical conditions of a counter-riot. In fact, I should probably add a Camelbak.

If this were just for me, personally, the search would have ended already and it would've been much as you say.

There is no craftsmanship involved with Kydex. You snip it into whatever shape you please, put it in the oven, shape it while hot, and rivet/glue/sew it to whatever articles you desire when it's cooled. It's cheap and easy to work even by creatively-impaired apartment dwellers, and will stand up even under repeated beatings by Sir Beergut with his rattan stick. For rigid body protection I fail to see how better can be done.

>>33701029
Hmm, I'll look into it, but it would require the shedding of the apparel which was armored wouldn't it?

I'll look into it and include it as an alternative; make a detailed tutorial for this context. Thanks for the suggestion. Any further information you can provide in this vein would be greatly appreciated.

I mean in the case of having to ditch the gear to disappear into the crowd. My sets are being designed for counter-protesters which are coming into contact with ANTIFA. Those cunts are putting M80s in glass bottles, cracking skulls with padlocks at the end of chain, stabbing people, using bear mace, just a bunch of heinous bullshit that oughtta get them classified as domestic terrorists. An M80 in a glass bottle is a low-power grenade-type IED, even more dangerous than merely throwing them into the densely packed crowds which they also do.

>>33675219
Damn it would be cool to see a set made with molle on it. Shame it will never come to pass...

WEW

An anti-antifa thread turned into an incoherent /pol/tard rant in which delusional conservatives betray even their own principles.

I guess this is why we like to keep /pol/ shit in /pol/.

For a thrown brick, a mountain bike helmet with viser/chin guard would be adequate. At least for the first one or two.

You should probably perform a tactical retreat after the first time you get hit in the head with a brick.

Have a look at Draggin Jeans. They have a range of garments with protective inserts and padding, obviously designed for sliding down a road rather than a fight but some of them might stop a knife and they'd all make good underlayers.

>I always thought that was a weird line. Nolan is a shit writer in general. so what his vigilantism is justified because he has a lot of money?
Batman has always had the view that he's the only legitimate vigilante because he's better at it. He's constantly telling other people that they're not good enough to be vigilantes and will just get hurt so they should fuck off. It's a genuinely fascist viewpoint but Batman never stands up to serious political analysis because it's a comic book.

They do custom work, and the armor is hand crafted so you could ask and maybe they could.
It would be an odd order but i cant imagine it would be too difficult for them.

Concept, dense foam such as EVA foam sandwiched between layers of kydex.

When hit the hard layer of kydex would distribute the force across the foam which would compress, absorbing a lot of the force like a spring.

Motocross chest and spine protectors with the plastic arm guards. Motocross lag protectors. In Aussie land you can get a cricket keeper helmet with the face mask. Under that wear ballistic goggles, not glasses, goggles. And a respirator with a couple filters on hand to switch between different threats, whether you just need fine particulate or gas protection.

Under the motocross armor try to get as much Nomex or equivalent clothing you can get. If you get hit with a Molotov the Nomex undersuit will buy you time before you burn to death.

Get some heavy wicket keepers gloves so you can toss tear gas canisters or take rubber bullets to the hands which are very delicate. Carry a cricket bat, you can literally smack tear gas canisters back AND beat on Antifa faggots. You are an Aussie faggot so you can probably use a cricket bat, and since you can "scoop" shit off the ground with one it's ideal for tear gas.
