I must admit that I didn't expect to see day when milkshakes are no longer being sold in UK and British might have to buy those from internet. This is how twisted out world is that selling something harmless like milkshake is being banned just because some idiots think that throwing those is same as violence when it's not.
The definition of violence from the Oxford English dictionary.
noun:
1.
behaviour involving physical force intended to hurt, damage, or kill someone or something.
2.
strength of emotion or of a destructive natural force.
Ergo, yes, throwing a milkshake at someone is violence.

Almost every weapon is harmless without a human using it...
Just admit pussed out and hit yourself in the dick 5 times while reciting the name of Anita Sarkeesian to please your Gods.
It's so stupid. What a world, what a world, what a world, eh?

Just remember, according to the new left:
Words = violence
Throwing something at a person /= violence

Words can incite violence. Words can be cruel. I think they can be inherently hateful. But they are not violent unless they're egging on violence. What do you think?

Yes, it could escalate to us playing vuvuzelas at them, or the infamous "Is this bugging you? I'm not touching you!"

Reactionary is a retarderd word and should be retired.
I am sure Obama could take some yelling but your side still got upset over you lie.
Now imagine if Joe the Plumber threw a milkshake at him...
