Vancouver prepping for olympics with new crowd control device
Vancouver police have a new crowd control device capable of emitting painfully loud blasts of sound, just in time for the 2010 Winter Olympics, CBC News has learned.
The medium-range acoustic device (MRAD) can use sound as a weapon, emitting piercing sounds at frequency levels that cross the human threshold of pain and are potentially damaging to hearing, say audio experts.
But it is primarily designed as a communications device that's clearly audible up to a kilometre away, say police.

Why are police above the law?
Just having coffee with their mates, @ blenz yaletown. No emergency apart from needing a latte. Pretty much pisses me off because it's taken for granted that police do this and it's somehow ok. *purposely witheld license plates
