...guy who decided to put his ulock around his neck for handyness sake i suppose the idiot lost the keys...
Now,
that would be worth a look! I can just picture it, poor guy.
Here'bouts, this is a popular tactic among protesters and those displaying civil disobedience -- they u-lock themselves to fences and such. The police now carry bolt-cutters as standard equipment, clipping the fence and leaving the u-locks intact. The protestors either carry the keys or hand them off to their compatriots so they won't be readily found if frisked by police.
...only the right side of my little brain works at times
Far better the right side than the wrong side, jags! No worries; you're doing great! Thanks for being here.
All the best,
Dan. (...who's biggest worry is a stuck zipper on the sleeping bag while stealth-camped a
very long ways from people)
