The burglars will probably steal the ball
I was thinking the same thing. What, they aren't going to pick it up and heave it over a wall or lock it in a closet? The thing can't be any smarter than your average rock.
But here is a VERY funny comment from one of the Tory MP's Patrick Mercer, who is campaigning to give people greater rights to defend their property against burglars:
"It would be interesting to see whether the ball had used grossly disproportionate force or whether it would be deemed reasonable."
It would certainly give new meaning to the phrase "balling some chick."
And I'm trying not to put forth the idea of balling someone out...but I can't stop myself.
Worst of all is the idea that the Swedish might discover having a ball isn't as fun as they thought.
