Kennedy Lindsey had a short sword, a steel tactical whip, a collapsible baton, pepper spray, a butterfly knife and a flashlight taser in her possession when a U.S. Secret Service officer searched her backpack, according to an FBI affidavit.

Lindsey was arrested in Los Angeles last month on charges including disorderly conduct and possession of a dangerous weapon in a Capitol building.

Lindsey was charged with a woman who flew with her from California to Washington, D.C. Lindsey bought plane tickets for both of them after then-U.S.-president Donald Trump announced that there would be a “wild” protest there on Jan. 6. Lindsey posted on social media that she was going because “boss man called for us to be there."

After attending Trump's “Stop the Steal” rally near the White House, the two women rode to the Capitol on the back of a golf cart.

Tacticool is a vibe. Basically it's black and it's got some features that you could maybe, probably not, convince someone a SWAT team might like. Like a knurled end cap on a flashlight.
