Subject: BS: Advanced Weapons From: JohnInKansas Date: 13 Nov 13 - 03:58 AM Man Attacks Cab With Didgeridoo Tuesday, Nov 12, 2013 A Southern California man has been arrested after police say he whacked a taxi with a didgeridoo in an argument over the fare. The 31-year-old man and a woman were picked up Sunday night in Chula Vista then fell asleep during a 20-minute ride to a home, according to the U-T San Diego. Police Lt. Phil Collum says when they arrived, the man got into an argument with the cabbie over the fare. Collum says he went into the house and came out with a didgeridoo -- a long, wooden instrument from Australia. Collum says the man threatened the driver with it. The cabbie drove off but the man allegedly chased the cab and whacked it several times with the didgeridoo, denting it. Arriving police arrested him on suspicion of vandalism. [Poor choice of weapons?] If he'd used a banjo he could have disabled the cab. Anyone have a better suggestion for instruments useful in combat? John |

Subject: RE: BS: Advanced Weapons From: Rapparee Date: 13 Nov 13 - 09:40 AM Was the instrument harmed? Was an accordion involved, or a uke? Are the police telling us everything or is this another case of the facts being withheld because they are so horrible that the public would rise up en masse and overthrow something? |

Subject: RE: BS: Advanced Weapons From: gnu Date: 13 Nov 13 - 01:50 PM Dan! Not another arms race?!!! My weapon of choice would be an upright piano IF I could throw one accurately. Unfortunately, given my arthritis and my overall condition, that being overly influenced by the fact that I am a Puter Potatoe, my aim isn't what it used to be. |
