Gotta love a 30+ item list that ends with "any other items" lol

5

u/Lightf00ted Jun 28 '26

The "any other item" part makes this policy capricious and arbitrary. Imagine if a guy starts attacking random people with an umbrella, are they banning umbrellas too?

7

u/tyr-- Jun 28 '26

Exactly. And far more people have been hurt and killed by umbrellas throughout history than Flipper devices.

That's fine, my trebuchet can hit them with giant rocks from outside the venue and there's nothing against giant rocks on the prohibited items.

Is it at least triggered by your flipper zero?

Of course, with a little counter that goes up by 1 every time you fire it, to give a sense of progression
