I wonder if there were cries for acid bans in the wake of this.
- jlgreco 14y agoOccasionally when stories about acid attacks reach lesser online forums, the comments will indeed be filled with cries of "why the hell are they even selling acid?". The commenters presumably do not realize that their local hardware store just a few minutes away is selling nasty shit as well.
- _delirium 14y agoIf it happened enough I could imagine there being some kind of controls. Bulk purchases of certain kinds of fertilizer were controlled post-Oklahoma-City, for example. On a lower level, some jurisdictions have restrictions on spraypaint sales, in an effort to combat graffiti.
- pyre 14y agoE.g. in Portland, Oregon you have to show ID to buy spray paint.
- monochromatic 14y agoThere are all kinds of caustic chemical that can be bought in small quantities though. We're not talking about needing a truckload of the stuff to do something horrific.
