    Sorry, fail to see a big difference.   They can call it perp protector for all I care.

    Yes, here's some "personal protective equipment" from Ferguson, MO....;-D...

    BTW, you referred to the term "personal protective equipment" as "PC". That's a (common) misuse of the term.

    The more correct appelation is "doublespeak"

    I didn't say that. What I said was it is riot gear and they are calling it  another name. Please read the question again. You responded to my with a question that has nothing to do with MY question. Thank you for showing up IK.

    That's OK Sharonna. You don't have to find any difference in the words. I did so I asked a question. Thank you for your reply.
