$2500 per pair btw TWO-THOUSAND DOLLARS

like guns, tasers, pepper-spray I am sure they will only be used as last resort without initiating or escalating against unarmed people not resisting

ha no opposite of that, they don't leave a mark and have no record they were used

josefresco•24m ago

I'm curious what would happen to someone wearing these gloves if exposed to water during activation.

Disclaimer: I'm of course only concerned about the safety of our brave and righteous ICE officers.
