Wtf is the blow torch for? Were they gonna solder some copper pipes on their rampage?
Edit: ALSO WHY A HIGH-VIS???
there's a bit about wearing a hi vis vest, generally professional attire, a hardhat and carrying a clipboard will let someone maneuver around restricted access places unchallenged.
sort of a hide-in-plain-site thing.
I guess this is the fake cop/whacker equivalent.
I think the Guy Fawkes mask would give them away
i assumed they found all this crap in his car, not equipped all at once. though that would be much cooler to see.
EDIT:
i looked up his arrest photo. his shirt is like something i would expect on someone who sells apple butter at a farmers market to be wearing to a pottery class at the annex.
Yes but it's funny to image him trying to sneak into a power plant with a high vis and a GF mask
With this setup I'm guessing blow torch is for taking dabs
The police and high vis vests are likely to blend in, either pre or post attack. The Nova Scotia killer wore a police uniform and drove a police car and pulled people over before shooting them
