I guess “monkey wrench” is no longer politically-correct?

Using spanner instead of “monkey wrench” often comes from a Brit, some Aussies and some Canadians.

How about a wrecking bar? That is a tool used in construction and demolition. It’s solid steel, about 1/2 inch thick and 3 ft. long, with a crook and claws on one end, for pulling nails, etc., and a flat area on the other end for prying and ripping. It will do as much damage as a spanner or a monkey wrench if you throw it into the proverbial democrat gearbox.
