BUCKETS OF URINE




When hoarding buckets of urine is a criminal act, then only criminals (and utter, total, lunatics) will have buckets of urine.

And you know what, I'm perfectly OK with that, I'm going to go out on a limb here, and despite my non-expertise on constitutional law, but I think it's pretty safe to say, that in most cases (images of a crucifix submerged in urine being an obvious exception) urine in of itself does not constitute 'free speech' and is not protected by the first amendment.

UPDATE: There are one group of folks who have legitimate uses for buckets of urine, fullers, but I doubt too many of them are running around St. Paul in 2008.







From Worst Jobs in History (Medieval Period), fulling gets its due at about the 4 minute mark (and continued on the bit below it)

Take a barrel of urine, dry it out, and collect the nitrogen for explosives.
