Anti-Air Missiles to be deployed for London Games

You are just jelly

Jelly of what? I'm like 500 miles from the terrorist hot spot-to-be.

Also, this is what they will be using, which looks pretty l33t to be honest.

Every SWAT team in North America has one of these. Its just those loudspeakers they use during riots. it has the ability to broadcast messages across very large distances and is audible even in a dense urban environment were buildings block the path of standard loud speakers.

it can also emit a very high pitched sound that temporarily deafens you and actually hurts like a bitch. They used them in Toronto when we had the G20 but this is a good example of how they are used both as a loud speaker and as a non lethal weapon.

Sounds like something we could really use on the Westboro Baptist Church.

Apparently, there is also another version of the sonic cannon that silences the target; the audio received from you is directed back at you at a slight delay, so your brain gets confused while processing the audio. Then, you will fall silent of your own accord.

Exactly for anyone who knew about the London riots...
It's funny how it was a peaceful protest about someones death, then a bunch of unrelated pathetic chavs decided to start throwing bricks and the whole thing escalated, they say it was about the death of a black guy, but half of the people rioting didn't know what it was about, they just said things like 'Coz we can't get a job or in college an all dat inni' to BBC news. :roll:

I'm going to the Games, so it should be very interesting...

Last year there were talks about a mass security base to be situated under the Olympic campus, the main stadium... should definitely be an interesting year, but rightfully can't leave things to chances.
