noahgibbs: Me and my teddy bear at Karaoke after a day of RubyKaigi in HIroshima in 2017 (monkeytown is doomed!)
There's a catalog called Gall's that you may have heard me mention before. They're a supplier to paramedics, fire departments, police departments and similar folks all over, and they sell good stuff if you're looking for that kind of thing.

They also sell happily to individuals looking for unusual quality items for other purposes. For the kinky, they sell handcuffs. For the prepared, first aid kits. For the motorcyclist, Gargoyles sunglasses (they're bulletproof!).

Under their "domestic preparedness" section, which has things like basic first aid kits, decontamination kits, emergency lighting and so on, they have a "Homeland Security" section. Naturally, I was intrigued.

It consists mainly of metal detectors, mirrors for inspection, and (get ready) portable holding cells in your choice of 8x8 or 10x10.

This is meant for at-home use? I think I'll mentally file this with the Smith & Wesson handcuffs under "for kinky folks". 'Cause I'm sorry, I just don't think very many people need to have holding cells for terrorists in their homes.
