I am always near by.

What did you expect me to say? Something like get down girl :rolleyes:

Sorry to disappoint you but I will stay quiet on the subject. If we ever have another meet she would only slap me anyway.

I heard this on the tv this morning too, i disagree with it really, on the grounds that no doubt this noise would upset my boys (18 months old) its not fair on those that are doing no wrong. I would agree if it was only being used when groups were causing a problem but do they use it like this or is it a constant noise? But its true that others would suffer when they are doing no wrong and this isnt fair. I still think that some of the younger ones get away with too much and am sure a good crack of their parents / responsible adult would have a bit more of an impact than an irritating noise

I don't live in la Belle Province, just next door:D And there is a difference. French Canadians are in Afghanistan fighting (The Royal 22nd Regiment is a Fracophone unit) not sitting with their thumbs up their asses complaining about the wine and the food.:rolleyes:

I don't like the idea about punishing all for the sins of one or two.


Exactly. Punish the perps.

I did expect you to say what you have already said you expected me to say what I expected you to say ..:D I would slap you too Neil .. I like her.

Anyway, I have voted a No, No on this subject, even though the answer is 'Yes' to ban... :rolleyes: Careful how you word polls Mike, can be misleading.

Strange how we have double standards on here, one minute grumbling how our kids don't go out to play anymore, then grumbling 'cause they are !

I have no objection to teenagers hanging on street corners in general, as long as they are not being troublesome or disturbing other people. Suppose the reason they hang around shops sometimes in Winter is due to the light they emit and feeling more secure. Ok, there are the ones that 'cause bother, but plenty that don't.

Re: Go on il start it off - The Mosquito - for or against?
 

Sorry - thought I had asked a simple and direct question "Should the mosquito be banned?" as it appears on the poll - apols for any confusion caused (its my first poll!)

Re: Go on il start it off - The Mosquito - for or against?
 

I seem to remember a few years ago that one of the strip malls in the city played easy listening music ... lots of Barry Manilow ... over outdoor speakers. This seemed to keep the teens from hanging around after the stores closed. But there are those who might think that this is cruel and unusual punishment.

Re: Go on il start it off - The Mosquito - for or against?
 

Well, one up on me Mike .. never done one before.:rolleyes: Sorry for critic, just me I suppose .. yes, was fairly straightforward .. just expected it more to read .. "Should they be allowed?".

Guess women's brains work t'other way around .. :pbiggrin:

Re: Go on il start it off - The Mosquito - for or against?
 

ya mean they actually work? cashy runs for cover.:D

Re: Go on il start it off - The Mosquito - for or against?
 

Yes, of course sweet,darling, honey sugar Cashy .. just differently .. wouldn't have it any other way :rolleyes: .. so come back IF YOU DARE :kiss: (Gosh, I am being really nice tonight !)

Back on thread: More play on enforcement please, although selective .. not let's get 'em all to catch the guilty. Soft approach does not appear to have had any effect to some youngsters.

Re: Go on il start it off - The Mosquito - for or against?
 

I agree with everything that has been said in here - which is actually killing me :cool:

Re: Go on il start it off - The Mosquito - for or against?
 

They use the word UNDISPUTED because anyone can challenge him for the title, therefore it isn't necessarily set in stone that he will ALWAYS be the Super Middleweight champion, he just is right now.

Using something that can be changed as an example of fact isn't really a good example in my opinion.

Re: Go on il start it off - The Mosquito - for or against?
 

How many of your are aware of what the sound is like? As the majority of the thread cant hear the sound I'm just wondering how they can judge on whether it should go or not? As far as I can see you have only been told its an 'irritant'.

As I have said already, I doubt there will be much use for them in Ossywood because our teens are too far evolved from Darwener's to stand around outside shops, they've got sense and hang around places they can sit.

I don't think its harmful to babies any more, I heard the sound this morning. I also don't think it will work as a deterrent to teenagers, I think it would be quite easy to get used to.
