ASBOS and LOW-PRESSURE SODIUM LAMPS

Ruxjit

I once heard it said that if you want to get rid of with gangs loitering on street corners under lights, put up a LOW-PRESSURE SODIUM LAMP.

Does anyone know how this could work?

I have no idea. Ear plugs and an air horn tends to disperse them quickly enough though.

Blare Lyric FM full blast at them.

They can't work out what colour tracksuits they're wearing?

Go outside and sit on your wall. Join in the conversation. They'll move soon enough.

The One Doctor

You can't be serious.

Aint Eazy Being Cheezy

That's an ordinary streetlight

Is it something to do with it emitting a sound that only under 18 - 20's can hear? Like the Mosquito Alarm?

Fill a super soaker with four month old urine and blast them with it.

Some shops play classical music,
kids dont like it.
I only heard about blue lights ,that are designed to discourage drug users in toilets using drugs.

Great, I've been looking for something to do with my four-months-old batch.

Another way to get rid of a gang of teenagers hanging around a street corner near you is to murder one of them.

Teenagers will instinctively not hang around a place where one of their herd was brutally murdered recently.

It's just science.

I think you may have once heard one thing about lights and scumbags, and have come up with your own version of it

It's the light that attracts them you know.
Install a giant version of those electric fly killers on every corner. The buzz off of that.

The King of Moo

Use rap to teach them about the importance of staying inside and doing their homework.

Do you mean the urine of a four month old or urine aged for that period?

I don't think writing it in all caps makes it truer.
