US Washington DC Bicyclists Install Acid Rockets on Bikes  (SAT PAR News Jul 14, 2014) A large sub-group of Washington DC bicyclists known as the Bike-Nihilist! has obtained a small rocket launching device that fits on handlebars and shoots paint dissolving acid at cars. An anonymous member described the reasoning, "We are defenseless against cars, this evens it up a little. The acid will not harm people but it reacts to car paint and makes it bubble off. The rockets are more like large paintball launchers. The acid missiles do have a tiny engine with propellant, they can fly about 50 feet accurately. This is our equalizer, and we continue to look for solutions to bring cars to our level." Local car drivers who have been struck by the missiles are not so forgiving. Laslo Hisenburg of Bethesda, MD thinks he was targeted due to making a legal right turn that made the space for the bicyclist narrow to travel, "There was no bike lane on the street I turned on, that isn't my fault, the biker should use caution and not proceed if it is not safe. Instead they attack us! My insurance will not cover this, they said the idea of cross-vehicle terrorism does not exist for any type of coverage!" Hisenburg's car had the entire rear bumper covered with blistered paint and rust where recent rain got to the sheet metal. Local police admit they do not know anything about it.
