Well, Carl. They were aiming for and hitting my head. To an elderly or otherwise frail person that could potentially be dangerous.

Perhaps it's because I was young once...many many years ago so I don't get upset at kids having harmless fun at my expense. 

Waterbombs are pretty harmless...

Indeed. 

I think the OP would have mentioned anything more noxious than water though. 

Someone on a day boat once threw an almost full bottle of wine at me which I deftly caught. 

Turned out to be a rather nice Chablis.

I sure hope it was canal water, and not mixed with anything else. But I didn't care to try and taste it. 

 

But you try to be hit in the head with a kilo or so of water, thrown from 8-10 feet above you. My head and neck stille hurts.

It's not very fun on the receiving end.

I appreciate you may feel aggrieved but there are worse things that can be thrown from bridges and it may ache a bit now but it will feel better soon. 

 

I recommend Chablis as a reliable anaesthetic.

Thanks for the info...sadly some people believe that such brats are entitled to cause harm & distress to others. Maybe phoning it in on 101 would be helpful.....might stop them progressing to using rocks.

Waterbombs are a gateway projectile.

So what’s acceptable to throw at others in your view.....If I launch an ice cube back at them is that acceptable??...it’s only frozen water after all.....

No...I’m prepared to defend myself & my property. Ice cubes are good cos they hurt when fired from a catapult & don’t leave any evidence.....

How sad that you advocate violence in response to kids mucking about with harmless toys.

When we were trip boating the owners once had the lack of foresight to book the local young conservatives and young labour on the same night, on each boat. As the two wide boats passed  on denham straight , there was a hail of brown ale bottles from one boat and wine from the other..

I never had the young tories down as brown ale drinkers. 

 

Socialists only drink champagne you know?

I guess we have very different outlooks on “mucking about” & “harmless”....

Indeed. 

Waterbombs soft and squidgy... Ice in a catapult deadly. 

One is mucking about the other disproportionate violence.
