High Capacity Rock Sacks
Posted: Thu Feb 03, 2011 3:37 pm
I have never been to Tahrir Square in Egypt, but for a paved area in a urban setting, there sure are a lot of rocks. I took a good look earlier today when making a milk/bread run just ahead of the ugly Texas weather, and I did not see any rocks suitable for throwing laying around anywhere.
It appears to me that people must be bringing their own supply of rocks, which I think should be regulated by the government. A normal throwing supply should be somewhere between 8 and 10. A high capacity rock sack could probably hold up to 17 or 19.
Why would anyone need to have more than 10 rocks to defend themselves? Allowing then to use high capacity rock sacks would seem to endanger the public at large. I am sure that if this were to happen in America, politicans would be quick to make laws to limit rock sacks to the lower amount. I am sure the penalty would be quite large, and there would soon be a shortage of high capacity sacks, and there would be a supply shortage.
From the TV coverage last night where the streets were relatively smooth, todays view shows rocks to be at least 3" deep.
What 'ya think??
