New York City Police Use Sound Weapons

This clip from a feature produced by Alex Jones, Austin, Texas videographer, shows military sound weapons mounted on NYPD trucks. This was filmed during the Republican National Convention in NYC August, 2004. In this instance they were used for crowd control. A variety of interest groups use similar weapons testing them on unpopular persons in this country. Psychologists, police and FBI informants, organized crime families all use these devices to harass their targets. In some areas for profit corporations run illegal businesses with police protection harassing persons for personal, political and economic purposes.

"...used in Iraq against enemies...", "...now that the government in general considers American people enemies of the state..."

bias against Iraq much? Yes, Americans are all do-gooders with wholesome intentions and all Iraqis are terrorists.

They WILL use these weapons on innocent people during times of "police state". Laugh now, cry later sheeple.

The LRAD is rather terrible. Not that hard to deflect. Magnets are the number one way.

Amazing the mentality of so many people here essentially saying "if the police use it, the people deserve it" -- This is a very vindictive, sick, ugly society.

LRAD's are great for law enforcement, they can help with dispersal of people without killing them, it can also be used like a giant loudspeaker.

[imdaviddalen]

they are used to break up riots. we use pistols in iraq, we also you bullet proof vests, should police not have those either?

Damn, then I can only buy two :P lol.

I believe it though. The money of ours that police forces use is absurd. Many forces have started buying military type tanks in the past few years. I imagine those are not cheap either.
