| #11 Where I live, shutting off power to a single house while leaving the rest of the neighborhood powered is not easy. The power meter can be pulled out of its socket, or the meter can be switched off, but someone has to walk up to the house to do that. The supply at the nearest pole has a switch, but it's accessible only by cherry-picker truck. Were it easier to do, shutting off the power to a single house is a great idea for this kind of problem. Maybe electrical systems elsewhere are wired differently. |

| #10 Good heavens 'Moose! Where was that? I heard about a witty police chief that made a deal with the local power company. When a party became too loud or unruly, they would shut off the power to that house. The police would not confront the party-goers directly at any time. Instead, they figured out where all the road exits were and set up small roadblocks with DUI checkpoints. Then they would process out each automobile, to make sure the driver wasn't drunk, and that there were no underage drunks. |

| #8 Where I went to school (SDSU) they had draconic measures called the College Area Party Plan in which they confiscated stereo or band equipment if they got a number of anonymous complaints. I'm sure it was unconstitutional but most kids kept the volume down lest they end up fighting to get their own property back for the rest of the semester. Where was the ACLU? Probably fighting for Nambla the bastards. |

Then they would process out each automobile, to make sure the driver wasn't drunk, and that there were no underage drunks. The alternative would be to hang out in a quiet, dark, either too hot or too cold house for several hours until the police left. It took a fraction of the number of cops, nobody got beaten up, pepper sprayed, tasered or shot, and the offending party was definitely over. |

| #6 Police say he got hurt while being arrested but had no information about his injuries. Night stick to the noggin, for starters. This puppy failed to respect the badge. For that, he will pay a price. |

| #3 We've got a "cool mom" up here too... HINGHAM - Police plan to charge the mother of a Hingham High School student with providing alcohol to a group of teens found partying at her home on Beal Street. Police who answered noise complaints at the home of Robin Chamberlain the night of Nov. 9 said they found 19 teens partying and drinking. As many as 20 others fled when police arrived, said Lt. Michael Peraino. Police found teenagers standing in the driveway and saw several jumping out of a second-floor window, Peraino said. He said Chamberlain was not home, and her teenage daughter let police into the house. Inside, teens were running up and down stairs. There were empty alcohol containers littering the back deck and one youth was running from the house with two cases of beer. Chamberlain arrived home while police were still there, Peraino said. ‘‘Officers were very concerned about her apparent lack of concern over the incident, because she kept telling the kids that they did nothing wrong and their behavior was normal,’’ Peraino said. While police were there, Chamberlain told teens that the officers didn’t know what they were doing. She told her daughter that she was aware of what she was doing and that it was OK and normal, that she had done nothing wrong, and that she was not in any trouble, Peraino said. He said Chamberlain told the officers that she loved all the children and had no concerns about them being there and having alcohol at the house. Chamberlain will be summonsed to Hingham District Court where she will be charged with furnishing alcohol to minors and keeping a noisy or disorderly house. Peraino said police also contacted the Department of Social Services to file a report of suspected child abuse. Reached by phone yesterday, Chamberlain would not talk about the charges. ‘‘There’s been enough written about this,’’ she said. |

| #1 They say he interfered with them when they tried to enter the house to speak with his parents, who were home during the party. All right! The "cool" parents! Any bets they sue the cops? |
