In Beruit there's been a ban on scooters, motorcycles, and mopeds midnight tonight.
They say that they've been used to taunt political opposition.

You can pack enough explosives into a small scooter to destroy a 30,000 pound armored vehicle.  I can see a certain "logic," of sorts, behind this.

How do I know, you ask? I'll answer your query with one of my own.... Why do you think I limp when I walk?
