{{Short description|Throwing eggs at people or property}}
Although a food item, [[eggs]] are sometimes thrown at houses, cars or people generally on Halloween. This act, known commonly as egging in the various English-speaking countries, is a minor form of [[vandalism]] and, therefore, usually a criminal offense and is capable of damaging property (egg whites can degrade certain types of vehicle paint) as well as cause serious eye injury<ref>Stewart RM. Durnian JM. Briggs MC. "Here's egg in your eye": a prospective study of blunt ocular trauma resulting from thrown eggs. Emergency Medicine Journal. 23(10):756-8, 2006 Oct.</ref>. On Halloween, for example, trick or treaters have been known to throw eggs (and sometimes flour) at property or people from whom they received nothing. Eggs are also often thrown in protests, as they are inexpensive and nonlethal, yet at the same time very messy when broken. John Prescott was egged by a rural protestor, which sparked controversy when he retaliated.

'''Egging''' is the act of throwing [[Egg as food|eggs]] at people or property. The eggs are usually raw, but can be hard-boiled or rotten.

The egging of [[politician]]s is a well-known form of protest, and egging cars or houses can be done as a form of [[vandalism]], with or without reason, but in some places egging is done for benign or celebratory reasons.

==Damage and injury==

Eggs can easily cause damage when thrown at [[property]], and egging is considered [[vandalism]]. When thrown at cars, eggs can dent a body panel or scratch off paint where the shell breaks. [[Egg white]]s can damage certain types of vehicle and building paint. Dried egg can be difficult to remove, and removal attempts with scrapers, abrasives or flammable cleaning solvents can damage some surfaces.

Victims of egging may be entitled to [[financial compensation]] for the cost of repairs and cleaning, and to fix or replace damaged property. Common charges related to egging are damage to property, vandalism, and nuisance.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.metro.co.uk/news/872086-nottingham-riots-11-year-old-girl-facing-criminal-damage-charges | title=Nottingham riots: 11-year-old girl facing criminaldamage charges | publisher=Metro UK | date=11 August 2011 | access-date=August 21, 2011}}</ref> In more serious cases where injuries have resulted, perpetrators may be charged with assault and fined.<ref>{{cite news | url=http://blog.seattlepi.com/seattle911/2008/10/15/what-happens-to-people-caught-egging-2/ | title=What happens to people caught egging? | publisher=Seattle PI | access-date=August 21, 2011 | first=Casey | last=McNerthney | date=15 October 2008 | archive-date=19 October 2011 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111019103206/http://blog.seattlepi.com/seattle911/2008/10/15/what-happens-to-people-caught-egging-2/ | url-status=dead }}</ref>

Egging is the act of throwing eggs at people or property. The eggs are usually raw, but can be hard-boiled or rotten.

The egging of politicians is a well-known form of protest, and egging cars or houses can be done as a form of vandalism, with or without reason, but in some places egging is done for benign or celebratory reasons.

Damage and injury

[edit]

Eggs can easily cause damage when thrown at property, and egging is considered vandalism. When thrown at cars, eggs can dent a body panel or scratch off paint where the shell breaks. Egg whites can damage certain types of vehicle and building paint. Dried egg can be difficult to remove, and removal attempts with scrapers, abrasives or flammable cleaning solvents can damage some surfaces.

Victims of egging may be entitled to financial compensation for the cost of repairs and cleaning, and to fix or replace damaged property. Common charges related to egging are damage to property, vandalism, and nuisance.[1] In more serious cases where injuries have resulted, perpetrators may be charged with assault and fined.[2]

Egging of a person's face can cause serious injuries and eye injury,[3][4] and may constitute assault and battery.[5] A nurse was blinded in one eye when an egg was thrown at her from a passing car in March 2008 in Dublin.[6] A boy in Long Island lost sight in one eye after teens from a local high school threw eggs out of a passing car on Halloween in 2005.[7]

As protest

Eggs are sometimes thrown at people or buildings as a form of protest. High-profile people who have been egged include: David Cameron,[8] Steve Ballmer,[9] Miloš Zeman,[10][11] Bronisław Komorowski,[12][13] Arnold Schwarzenegger,[14] John Prescott,[15][16][17] Helmut Kohl, Nicolas Sarkozy, Nick Griffin,[18] David Blaine,[19] Richard Prebble,[20] Ed Miliband,[21] Charles III,[22] Nigel Farage,[23] John Tsang,[24] Luis Fortuño,[25] and Rafael Correa.[26]

In 1917, an egg thrown at then Australian Prime Minister Billy Hughes led to the formation of the Commonwealth Police.[27][28]

On 1 June 1970, UK Prime Minister Harold Wilson was hit in the face by a raw egg thrown by a member of the Young Conservatives, while campaigning for re-election.[29]

During the 2004 Ukrainian presidential election, candidate Viktor Yanukovych was rushed to hospital after he had been hit with an egg (while government officials claimed he was hit by a brick), which became a source of ridicule.[30]

Irish bank AIB was egged in response to the Irish banking crisis of 2009.[31] The Chairman of the Ukrainian Parliament was egged by deputies inside the Ukrainian parliament in 2010 as a protest against a natural gas agreement.[32][33]

Former Brazilian president Luiz Inácio da Silva had eggs and rocks thrown at his bus by protesters in March 2019 while he was visiting southern Brazil.[29] In July 2017, Maria Victoria Barros, a member of the state assembly in Paraná and daughter of Ricardo Barros, Health Minister during Michel Temer's government, had eggs thrown at her during her wedding as she left the church.[34] After blaming Muslim immigrants for the anti-Muslim Christchurch massacre in March 2019, Australian politician Fraser Anning was egged by a teenager, who was arrested, but later released without charges.[35] While campaigning during the May 2019 Australian federal election, Prime Minister Scott Morrison was the target of an attempted egging by a 24-year-old woman at a Country Women's Association event held at the Albury Entertainment Centre. The egg failed to break on contact with Morrison's head and instead bounced off. The lady was immediately arrested.[36] Former Australian PM Julia Gillard was also egged by protesters in July 2010.[37]

For specific events

[edit]

Egging is sometimes associated with certain events and holidays.

In Brazil, it is common to throw eggs at someone on their birthday, with or without their consent, as a friendly prank.[38][39] Usually, flour is also poured on the person's head after the eggs, with the idea of "a cake being made on their heads". A recent example is when Guarani FC midfielder José Fernando Fumagalli had eggs and wheat flour thrown by his teammates during his 40th birthday celebrations and retirement announcement in 2017.[38][39][40] The tradition originated in the 1980s,[38] in Mexico, where it was common to break "cascarones" (eggshells) on a person's head at their birthday party as a vow of good fortune. The eggs were usually filled with confetti and colored with dye or crayons.[39]
