For your last paragraph: the lack of a weapon’s check/lockers and policies against weapons on-property were among the reasons I haven’t biked to most jobs. Ok, that, and no employee showers. I don’t mind being un-armed while working, but basically having to drive to get to work safely, and/or starting the workday drenched in sweat most days, is annoying as hell.
Idea: have a 1.5 meter long stick come out the side of your bicycle with a brick at the end of it.
They can’t blame you if they run into the brick on their own.
It’s only that stupid physics and balance thing didn’t get in the way 😡
Ive seen people do it with pool floaties as a very colorful and less destructive demonstration.
If destruction is your aim and physics is the concern, a plain steel pipe will do just fine.
If your 'merican, you can also generally open carry while on a bike. A shotgun on your back or a pistol on your hip will likely work wonders.
