Why can’t all BoingBoing Shop ads be this entertaining?
my apologies, haven’t had my coffee yet.
Brutal. I wholeheartedly support.
TIRED: robbing liquor stores
WIRED: robbing cannabis shops
Having looked into this topic before, for a friend let us say, there are penalties for using bear spray and other toxic sprays like wasp spray, intentionally in a manner against the labeling.
I think the strongest people pepper spray is right in the same range as the bear spray, so buy something labeled for the job and have one less worry.
Indeed, and If a small, pocket-sized can of spray is not enough, larger cans are available. They’re sold for control of unruly crowds, but one of those monsters would probably clear out a retail shop pretty quickly.
He would have been legally OK if he had defended himself with a Katana.
Which I am surprised he did not!
Well, I mean, they didn’t appear to be immortals…
I literally just typed out
These BoingBoing store posts are finally getting better!
before noticing your post and deleting mine.
Great minds…
Example:
BACKFIRED: robbing bear spray dispensaries
These shops are perfect targets for robbery because the damn credit card companies will not give them accounts and banks won’t take their money. They are cash only with nowhere ro store it.
How does one clean up after blasting a room with bear spray!?
Cannabis shops will remain much more lucrative targets until we allow full and equal access to the modern banking system. Requiring a high volume business to be all cash is basically asking for it to be a target.
They need one of these at the entrance, but with ballistic plastic.
Bring in a bear to lick it clean?
(You’re not supposed to apply bear spray to your stuff as a precaution, because it seems that bears like spicy food. What they don’t like is bear spray in their eyes and nose.)
Like in Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels?
Silly robbers, bringing guns to a bear spray fight.
