Some local hardware store is making out like a bandit.

beyond tacky, I cant believe the people of paris would allow their beautiful bridges to be trashed in such a way.

The headline is alarmist. Two of the railing sections collapsed, not the bridge proper. However, the weight is considerable. I was there last year and vendors set up on the bridges and sell locks to those who haven’t brought their own and there are many thousands of locks attached to the railings. I hope some engineer has calculated the aggregate load and the bridge weight capacity.

Was locking a lock on this bridge part of some movie?

All they need to do is make another movie where the two main characters show their undying love for each other by throwing two intertwined roses off the edge of the bridge and watch them float down the Seine.

Fight fad with fad.

"confirms that our desire to find an alternative to these locks is a real necessity."

Tie-wrap and lock-out tag, problem solved.
