If you get those biodegradable peanuts you can glue them together with a little touch of water on the ends and make sculptures.

Or you can eat them.

Maybe I ate too many of them.

There's been some marching, protesting, and the like here in PGH. I've upped my med kit and supplies that I carry with me for survivability.

If rioters are outside your home and are breaking windows, or vandalizing your home and neighbors, what could one realistically do to defend or counteract these acts?

I've been trying to think what I would do. I know what to do if they try to break in like in a home invasion, but what could one do if they're harassing and committing external damage?

Breaking windows as in throwing rocks/bricks into them? That's deadly force IMO and could be met with the same.

Otherwise it could be a bit shaky...

The only thing I can think of is a show-of-force deterrence. Be seen inside the house clearly armed, then maybe... just maybe, they'll leave the house alone.
