Maybe he was worried the old man would toss his salad.

The best method of defence is attack - so I whacked him in the face and then I clobbered him again

I like how this guy can scare away robbers with lettuce and yet he probably can't drive down the street without hitting someone or something.

 

[LoneGunman]

I can only imagine what he would do with carrots

 

[WarBuddha]

Misleading...there was bottles of shit in the bag too.

 

[covenant]

Lettuce rejoice.

What a legend!

They include raids on a nature reserve and fish farm in Hawkhurst, Kent, and a One-Stop shop in Sidley, East Sussex.

Only targetting the big earners then.

It's true, he's the ultimate weapon!

WHERE ARE THE LETTUCE CONTROL LAWS IN THIS COUNTRY!?

"Before he had a chance to say anything at all, this elderly gentleman whacked him with a carrier bag which had a lettuce amongst other things in it," Det Insp Claydon said.

Do Brits actually say "a lettuce?"

 

[MeditatingGolem]

the guy probably only had the gun to scare people. guns are illegal in Britain, right? also I don't know a thing about British law, but I'm guessing if he actually used the gun on the old man he'd be in some serious trouble if he were caught. it's like the guy who carries a banana in his coat to rob a bank.

When lettuce becomes outlawed, only outlaws will have lettuce.
