British pub owners are warning of a beer drinker’s backlash over plans to replace the traditional pint glass with plastic. The British Home Office commissioned the shatter-proof design in hopes of stopping the 1 pint glass in every 1.2 million served that’s actually used as a weapon. |Times Online|

Naturally, Amnesty International has serious concerns about the use of this terrifying weapon. |The Sun|
