It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

a heavy object in a quickly usable position - metal lock on the handlebars is fine, a brick in one hand is better - works way better than these mostly victim-blaming "tips", in my experience.
I can tell you from experience, riding one handed with a 36" pipe wrench over one shoulder also makes motorists give you a wide berth.
I only ever did it once because I had to transport the wrench, and that fucker was heavy.
