Some comments are calling for Amazon to temporarily suspend sales.

Stricter bat control laws!

I’d bet that making a bolt action bat wouldn’t be too difficult. Avengers indeed.

What the heck is a yob?

[Paladin2]

Spork knuckles?

[DTA]

[gaijin]

Yob is BOY spelled backwards.

The nuance is that it’s a bad boy —a real trouble-maker.

[PGR88]

Suddenly “rounders” has become much more popular

[paddles]

A Louisville Slugger rammed up a miscreant’s backside to the label is a powerful statement.

It's bloody civil war over there. Now this is only if you can't get police.

I can think of some better weapons than that I can improvise right here at home. But if I had to use a bat, I'd wind it with tape with staples and roofing nails sticking to the outside. Guess they can't improvise a bayonet on the end, too pointy.

I'd use my pump sprayer and hit them in those hoodies with full-strength Liquid Fence. Organic and stinks like hell. If they still want to mess with me, I've got worse stuff I could put in it.

I can think of other things I've got right around the house. But the problem that confounds me is how to protect my home from being firebombed if it comes to that.

Send the Baseball Furies over there

Don’t forget gardening implements, mops and brooms. One can do a lot of damage with a sharp grub hoe.

[dfwgator]

This guy isn’t very smart.

[N. Theknow]

What the heck is a yob?

It is the opposite of a boy.

Instead of being a good boy, a yob is a rude, inconsiderate, louse.

[ctdonath2]

Now up 24,000%.

[ctdonath2]

To the contrary, Amazon should offer free same-day / overnight shipping as a public service.

[SIDENET]

LOL.

I just wanted to point out a fact that nobody seems to remember.

The Baseball Furies got their asses kicked.

And they had bats! The only group who were the bigger wusses were the guys with the whole roller skate/overalls combo. (LOL) Even the Lizzies did better fighting the Warriors.

[Bringbackthedraft]

Where are the boys from Clock Work Orange?

[Da Bilge Troll]

Nothin’ beats a good ‘ol axe handle!

Nothin’ beats a good ‘ol Remington 870 pump!

[dfwgator]

Even the Lizzies did better fighting the Warriors.

Heck, even The Orphans did put up more of a fight.....but hey, in Britain, the Furies probably would do just fine.

[dfwgator]

Now, THIS guy, knew how to use a bat

[SIDENET]

You make an excellent point.

(BTW, good point about the Orphans.)
