What is kettle?

Oh for Christ Sake, does every word need to be a sexual inuendo? For that small audience even the most modest of social consciousness- Kettling is a tactic used by police to try to suppress peaceful demonstrations by corralling protesters and refusing to let them go.

At the 24 November student demonstration in London, police were kettling students, some as young as 14, keeping them in the cold until midnight. Shame the American media didn't have time to cover it....

Kettle

Rural drudges, no class, slovenly, aversive to hard work, dim as a used up bulb. The Kettles were originally a family portrayed in American comic films in the 1940s and '50s (the first was "The Egg And I", portraying life on a chicken / egg farm, the last "The Kettles on Old Macdonald's Farm".) In the first movie, the slow-thinking and lazy Pa and Ma Kettle, with their fifteen children, win a tobacco slogan writing contest and get a modern house with electronic gadgetry they can not fathom. Today, the term is occasionally used to describe an uncouth dufus, a rude lout, someone who completely ignores politeness and common knowledge, someone who might act like an unschooled, ignorant rural clod.

These kettles boarded the plane and proceeded to place their infant in the overhead baggage bin, as he spit tobacco juice on the aisle carpet.
