Armor. Pad up. Protect the face, neck, groin and knees. Buy stab-proof vests on ebay.

Because the regime supports them. The (((regime))) will always find ways to interpret and enforce the law so that we lose.
The only weapon that I recommend is protest signs. Yo can't be blamed for brining one. If you show up with paintball guns, pepper spray, conceled carry firearms with a permit, glass bottle with non alcholoic drink in it etc you are going to jail.
Focus on getting fit and learning grappling skills. Learn the laws inside out and make citizens arrests.

Why fight those children, that is exactly what they want. Record their antics, and post them for everybody to laugh at later. Paint ball guns are not suitable for defense, if you fear for your own health and safety, use an actual gun. Dowels are deadly weapons, responding with a firearm is justified.

Completely unnecessary.

If you go shooting at people with paintball guns I'd be prepared to bet that it's a matter of hours before some LEO uses that as an opportunity to deliberately mistake your paintball gun for a real one. Doesn't matter which side of the conflict you're on, while you've any gun-like object in your hands you're a free ticket to a year's paid vacation for him. I'd suggest a catapult and some heavy steel ballbearings as a pre-arm that's less likely to get you executed on the spot.
Don't tie the padlock to the bandana, makes it identifiable as a weapon. Loop it thru so they can be separated quickly by pulling one end of the bandana or used as a weapon by holding both ends, whole thing lives in a pocket and can be drawn out as a weapon or as two innocent unrelated items which will easily pass the most stringent security checks.
If you find yourself adjacent to a melee and unarmed you can quickly improvise a similar weapon by slipping off one of your socks and putting a can of soda or a couple of rocks inside.

It'll collapse eventually, yes, depends on the strength of sock and on what you're hitting, but it's a whole lot better than nothing. Also, as long as you have 2 feet you have 2 socks, you could double them up for strength, keep a hot spare or even dual-wield!
I've seen a sock and pool balls used in anger, the recipient was totally out of the fight after just 4 swings and would have needed extensive surgery, the sock (appeared to be a cheap workboot sock) looked like it would have been fine after laundering, there were no obvious rips where it had hit the head.

slings or slingshots with paintballs is better and can be fired with higher velocity if done right
