Could a small portable catapult be used to throw dirt on a climate fire?
Could cops use launched nets to apprehend folks and not tasers or bullets?
Just trying to think outside of the box since the box seems to be on fire.

Save the nets for unarmed black guys getting into cars, or refusing to get into cars.
So many good ideas here.
