Good job Canada, ruin another good idea! The canadaian goverment is a joke, sad sad stuff. (Im canadaian)

Meh, we used silly string in history class to test the best ancient war formation. The Roman tortoise formation won. :P

 

 

 

(We broke into groups, then our teacher stood at the other side of the room, like an enemy. We marched towards him and he shot silly string while our classmates threw st00f. It was fun.)

 

 

 

A little more on-topic:

 

 

 

I support anything that saves innocent lives. If I understood correctly, that's what they're using silly string for. Other than possibly financial issues or embarrassment, I see no reason why it shouldn't be allowed.

 

 

 

I must say, silly string is a wonderful invention.

Rename it, perhaps? 'Tripwire detector projectile apparatus'

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

...or whatever floats your boat.

and raise the cost to $100 a can and then you have something the military uses. :P

Know what else is just light enough to be thrown to let you know there is a trip wire?

But seriously...I heard about this many weeks ago. Perhaps a couple months ago. :P

I honestly think thats absurd. There is no logical reason not to use it. Honestly, if you were to sit down with the leaders of canadia and say "why wount you use this?" they couldn't give you a good answer.

Once an opinion is formed the truth is irelivant.

Hey that's a pretty clever idea.

SWAG

 

Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.

I don't know about the rest of you. But I could care less what the damn can of silly strings intend use is and isn't supposed to be. If it helps to save my life, it helps save my life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Who really cares if it's not a military icon or not? That's by far stupidest reason i've ever heard for people to stop trying to save lives. :roll:

I always knew that stuff would become important . I think they should use it, and make it pink! Lol.. A real military icon eh?

well...can't the Canadians put a sticker on the can saying "not a toy" and spray paint is in camo colours. They could also make the string black so it's not colourful and voila! an adult silly string for detecting tripwires

They will probably just change the forumula up just a little, to avoid copyright laws, and then provide it for themselves. (if they use it at all)
