"There are about 87,000 alcohol-related gas attacks each year, with many resulting in hospital visits,"
You know, that is just some crazy $hit. I think it is all a result of that darned futball over there. Oooh, Manchester scored a goal, lets riot and bust up some pint glasses on peoples faces....I mean, goals don't happen that often so they have to really whoop it up when they do
Now even though the beer will stay at the correct tap temperature longer in some sort of plastic glass, I would miss the feel of a good quality glass in my hand. I would also feel like i couldn't defend myself properly with plastic if someone snuck some glass into the pub.
yeah, thats what a pub owner is going to do. Pay twice as much for a glass. What the hell is going on over there?

You really think they're going to get a choice? This glass is being introduced by the government claiming it's a way to reduce health care costs. I'd be shocked if it didn't become mandatory.
"Officials swore the country would save billions in health care costs by coming up with a glass that doesn't double as a lethal weapon."
Pure awesome. Somebody should have told Obama that our health care issues could be solved just as easily. Actually strike that, he might want to add pint glasses to the list when he reinstates the assault weapon ban.

This made me laugh, nice.
What about making glasses out of better bottle material? PERT?
How did they come to the conclusion that the glasses were the issue?
People are getting into fights and using the nearest thing as a weapon. If its not the glass, then they will be breaking chairs over their heads. What is next, are they going to mandate Nerf chairs to protect people?
