I've always wondered why the sophisticated cartels didn't use simple solutions at the border. I've heard these alternately called Road Stars and
Road Spikes. I first saw them in catalogs as a kid and it's probably best for the world that it took real effort to order snail mail catalog products
back then. I never got any. They are basically just multi-pointed 'stars' with pointed ends that always land with one point sticking up. Throw a few
handfuls out and, in theory, it should basically close the road behind the vehicle tossing them. I always wondered if they'd have actually worked.
Now I know. They DO work. Well, I'll be......
This bit of local news kind of reminded me of the Dukes of Hazzard.
What will they do next throw dynamite out the window at the Border Patrol or just open up on them with AK47s when they disable the vehicles with Road
Spikes !!
