Stop filing taxes. Tea party 5.0. Buy tea instead and literally throw it at them. Like physically, with a cannon.

Out of curiosity and totally unrelated, is it even possible to make munitions out of tea? Like, can you compress it into a sphere and fire it from a 17th century cannon, or would you just wind up with a bang and dense mist of tea?

This got me wondering.

Sounds like a question for the hydraulic press guy. See if tea compresses.

I think it would, but I also think it may just create a blockage that makes the cannon sort of explode, hurting anyone nearby?

Tea, regardless of how compressed, would be weaker than the wall of the cannon. So it would be a mist of tea leaves.

Just add water.
