We all know that when gas hit over $2.50/gal more stations started reporting "gas an runs" where someone fills up and just drives away. I saw this happen once in 2000 when gas spiked at around $2.73 gal (in Canada, U.S. price/gal). Generally, the police go get these people, eventually, but it's not a priority with them. What would happen if 500 people coordinated something like this, gassed up at say 200 stations in a big city, at the same time and drove away? My guess is station owners would institute "pay first" policies at all stations. Right now, they only have this at certain hours in stations in "bad" areas. But as a protest, something like that would be pretty amusing. But I'm more for dragging oil company exec war profiteers behind pick up trucks.
