MO will go broke fighting all the lawsuits filed by motorists shaken by the use of these weapon against them, they are weapons. Developed for the military as a non lethal crowd control weapon. Just a few horrific accidents will be all it takes.

[John_Kunkel]

Night clubs?

I absolutely don't condone speeding in a work area but sound cannons?  They might as well have giant mace sprayers too.

Wonder how this will work for the Hearing Impaired, they just may have to use bright lights also.

[Ghoste]

There are many environazis who have just such a hope.
