Banging Plates

Banging Plates goes beyond a "Red herring", it's making noise about the red herring insisting that it is the one true interpretation, even if it's just a profitable misinterpretation. It is a psychological idea, creating a chaos where logical analysis becomes difficult; now fear shepherds one into going for the red herring even if with a calm mind he would never have taken that option. Many other hidden meanings, like "our plates are empty, so feed us by buying our silly commercial idea".
The snake oil salesman was banging plates to convince people to buy his medicinal product.
The Prime Minister advised people to go to the balcony and bang their plates to spread awareness about the need to wear masks.

Steel plate door

My birthday wish for unit 314 246 westwood since the police broke my front door using m4s butts to open my door over 100 times ripping the original doors locks out of my frontdoor altering the residence as landlord with photos.
Breaking the oven glass with my face and leaving the glass broken. Leaving a bullethole in my window and two dressers missing the drawers fronts.

A steel plate door slides into the wall and locks like a vault door with a triple lock into the frame one behind two on the front.
Instead of a steel plate door i have 2 8 foot steel bed lift arms braced against the walls in a crossbrace to lock my front door. It locks with 100,000 lbs when i lever it right. I dont need a steel plate door but might invest in cutting the crossbrace to lock top and bottom with one of the bedframe doors and cut the second one to create a triangular locking brace on the door and use a rope ladder to enter and exit.
