      I'd Say oppurtunists, infiltrators and smelling a chance to loot over causes & outbreak of chaos can undermine genuine real protests.. not just US but looking though protests tactics of Hong Kong and Myanmar over these past months/year. the ones i can be approve of is Sit ins, assemblies (protest over an embassy, a restaurant without disruption), Vigils (when outrage over the deaths of victims of shootings, schools, malls,etc), Organized Marches (it was a big effort somebody must prepare to bring volunteer medics, supply & merch like water and stacks and trash bags, Person & crew who leads & negotiates to march beforehand without road traffics, ask assistance if it's similar to parades, Guides to other marchers without going over the place, Advertizers & local journalists who would make an article or vid about it.). Yet what i Don't like is the Cases of Opportunists (people who smell for using protests as distraction to the dismay of who tried to call out against or for a cause EX: protesting over the treatment of orcas & dolphins on seaworld? why the F we are burning coliseums!? and loot the nearest best buy store?), Infiltrators (far right, trolls and corrupt/undercover police who tried to pin the blame violence to the organizers)

    I’ve lived in the same place over 30 years. My neighborhood has changed and gone downhill. I’m retired now, but in the few years before I did thieves broke into my home 4 times! They always came in through the windows, even after I put up burglar bars.
    I’m planning on building a retirement home and moving to a better area. I still have concerns knowing crime happens just about everywhere these days. I want to install residential security doors and hopefully AP-25 or AP-50 windows and not install burglar bars.

      What city is this. And how did they get through the bars? What was the time frame between the burglaries? Did you have a home security system? Were you home during any of the attacks? Are you aware if they attacked you on foot or did they have a car? Was heavy/ large items taken? I have an extreme passion for home security. I want to start my own company one day

    I am a Sercurity guard and I have a big problem that maybe you can help me with. My client hired someone to install the impact resistant window film. The man didn’t cut it to fit all the way to the edge. And in some cases didn’t even cut it straight. There are bubbles all over the windows impeding our vision. The worst part is that when you put the lights on when it gets dark you can’t see out the windows. You only get a reflection of yourself when inside the gate house. Yet the people outside can see everything going on from outside the gate house. The man said today that we would have to keep the lights off permanently. They installed the film inside

      Riot Glass is not film, but rather a formidable glazing shield that cannot be breached with standard burglary tools. Bollards should be installed in front of the windows to prevent vehicle attacks as you mention, which is becoming increasingly popular as an added layer of protection.

      @@RiotGlass Yeah, that pretty much answered my question, thanks. Really amazing product. I wonder if it can be combined with glass as kind of an insulated pane to protect it from flame attacks because it withstands impacts and cold temperatures well but looked like it melted somewhat easily because it looks like a form of plastic. maybe shrink the thickness a bit and sandwich between two tempered panes or even layer them, 5 layers total. Only problem is that gets expensive and it sounds like 1 or 2 steps away from being bulletproof at that point.

    • @aboogie797
      @aboogie797 2 месяца назад

      OPEN the window. If and when you exit a window do you do it by first smashing the glass or by OPENING it up with your hands.
      You can still operate the window as normal after you install their products.
      If firemen need to get to you and theres a fire, unless you are unconscious Im sure a window would have at least been opened by then for you to get out or for them to get through.
      Closing the door to the room you would be in and putting a towel under the door helps to not let the fire travel into the room.

      I have 10 windows: 1m width * 3m height.
      How much will it cost me per window?
      Also I’m in Macca, Arabia.

    Fun fact; corporate crime that involves underpayment of wages and stealing from employees is 20,000x all theft and burglary combined annually. If the same money was spent holding corporate criminals accountable you would have 20,000x less reasons for this petty crime to occur

    I don't hit window so soft. Clearly this tech won't stop me breaking the glass with a stone.

      We have lab test videos that show bricks thrown. Riot Glass will definitely stop a stone.

    Can this be used on homes? Is it mounted on the inside glass or exterior glass? Where can we get it? Is it available in Northern California????
