Title: High Pitched Sounds Meant to Torture Teens should be Banned.
Post by: stephendare on April 23, 2008, 06:38:29 PM
This technology is being used to drive teens away from any public gathering place.

It has the potential to cause serious earaches, not only to the kids that can hear it, but also any adult who is unaware that they are being exposed to it.

i'm on my iPhone so I can't see what it is you're talking about but if its anything like that pigeon "scare er " thing at the Florida Theater it's noise pollution and should be taken down or the owners fined
