fucking facists.

Sonic 'lasers' head to flood zone (http://guerrillanews.com/headlines/4674/New_tech_to_New_Orleans_for_crowd_control)

The device uses magnets approximately 6 inches tall and 9.25 inches wide to convert electrical pulses into sound waves, and is capable of aiming sound precisely for thousands of feet—like the sonic equivalent of a laser, or spotlight.

Its path and reach can be affected by environmental factors such as nearby flat surfaces, hills, bodies of water or strong bursts of wind.

A series of test sounds beamed out by MAD, including gunfire, music and instructional commands, were audible and intelligible at distances of up to a mile.

When a subject is at close range in MAD’s sonic path, and it is set to high volume, the sound can be excruciating.
