I'm afraid you have Popper all turned around. According to Popper, one should make claims that are testable, and then it's the job of (usually other) scientists to perform experiments to try to tear them apart.
If you're a Popperian and you disagree, go ahead and perform the experiment. If your position is that the relevant claim isn't testable, that's a different complaint entirely.
You're supposed to try to tear apart your own claims, first. Making random but testable assertions for no particular reason is not part of the methodology.
