This is directed at the smelly hippy g20 protestors? Just throw deoderant sticks at them. They will scurry away like roaches.

Did the Evil George Bush ever call for the use of such weapons on civilian protestors??

What kind of noise weapon was used against the DC protestors on 9/12? Oh, I forgot, the 9/12 people weren’t radical liberals. Never mind. :-)

I take it you've watched the eco-terrorists of the Steve Irwin commit acts of piracy against the Japanese whaling fleets.

Not one derogatory word about these disgusting bastards from the Marxist Media. They are just "protesters."

Yet they mocked those who participated in the town hall meetings and demonstrations all over the country for peacefully protesting government encroachment and abuse. They labled them "teabaggers".

Well, I call those leftist losers SCUMBAGGERS and DOUCHEBAGGERS!!!

Funniest show on TV. The ecofreaks are the most inept people I have ever seen. I expect one of these days that slob captain will end up sinking his ship or at least getting some of his crew killed due to his incompetence.

Have a type of acoustic weapon myself, a side by side 12 gauge with 22” barrels.....makes a hell of a noise when you pull both triggers at the same time.

It is funny to watch. The radically left pig of a captain was deemed so insane he was unaimously voted out of Greenpeace. And what a band of loons he has for a crew. Watching them make fools of themselves while desperately trying to be relevent is side-splitting. How deluded must one be to think you can board a ship illegally then claim you were kidnapped?

Animal Planet hosts a forum. Not surprisingly, most participants recognize the crew for the lawless lunatics that they obviously are.

What kind of hearing protection do the cops need to have to keep from having their hearing damaged? Some type of noise cancelling device?

None actually - this device is extremely directional, the key to it ‘success’.

Ordinary beeswax would dampen the noise to levels that would not be ..... repelling, so to speak.

In addition to sound effects, it makes a super PA system.

The Steve Irwin captain and crew were made to look like the fools that they are. Their terrorist efforts were truly pathetic.

Now it works on Americans

ya know, who costumed these cops? I mean we’re Americans...John Wayne wore a WHITE cowboy hat....The Lone Ranger was all in White...I mean who thought that dressing American police in SS uniforms was going to make people feel protected...The govt is so dumb...cold rock dumb...doesn’t it just naturally make you feel like the cops are the enemy of everything good wearing those “Look how evil and menacing I am” costumes? I guess next Obama will do the state of the union in a red devil’s suit.

Many a good policeman and department has been ruined by this paramilitary attitude. Such disdain for citizens. Taze ‘em. And, if that doesn’t do the trick, rupture their eardrums.

I don’t agree with much of what these protestors are protesting. But, they are by and large U.S. citizens, in their own country. This is a very bad precedent, and you won’t see me applauding it.

It’ll be our turn soon enough. We know these devices were at town halls.
