#4 Actually, I think one of the most disruptive things that could be done at Edinburgh would be for the *protesters* to pass around huge amounts of some potent laxative. Imagine what the city would be like if, say, 300,000 people all shit on the streets at once? I think it would send a powerful message to the G8 leaders.

#5 We seem to have some homemade versions of this on our streets in Madison, using window-shaking bass and hip-hop.

#6 Israel has a new crowd control weapon; a “Sound Cannon” called, “The Scream”

You know we ought to be sure that the Isralei government is paying Ashlee Simpson royalties each time that weapon is used...Its only fair...

#7 To achieve maximum effect, the device has to have a highly trained operator.

#13 Personally, I believe the most effective crowd control device to be the flamethrower. I'd say it's certain to end any protest rather quickly and I'm sure with all these new thermobaric weapons, we can find something even nastier than napalm.

#16 What? They can build a sound cannon but they can't take 1 minute a day to call home? What kinda country are you building over there? I hear some parts aren't clean. Is that true? With all this sound cannon effort you'd think you could clean up a little....

#17 Nah, Gitmo is using Chinese Opera.

#18 Ohh.. Chinese opera - makes a "cat fight" sound nice. (Opps the wife will kill me if she sees this... As a young girl she considered being a Chinese Opera star...)

Eeenah yah!
OOOOOOOOOOh Yow!
Cymbal noise
Gong
Fan.nn.nn ...

Almost as bad as the sixty's morning wake up soundcasts in every neighborhood in Taiwan..
First - Be kind to your web footed freinds.
Next - chun bei ta..ah..min chun bei ta..ahmin...shen bei ta .. ah min.. chun be tah ah min....
(no idea what the h' it was saying but it is seared in my mind....)
Third... (I think...)
Nat Anthem...
San min jue ei .....
(all that bit about... our aim shall be to found a free land world peace be our stand... lead on comrades vanguards ye are hold fast your aim by sun and star. Be earnest and brave your country to save one heart one soul one mind one goal....)
Then...
Chinese Opera!!

No pillows thick enough to block it!
It surounds and envelopes you...
From all sides the sound comes with cracking speakers, feedback, record players slighted off...
Argh!


Yes.. the perfect torture!
Except maybe the chinese mercury torture.
