When I was a kid it was rare to hear a siren, now its rare to not hear a siren
Cant get no rest User ID: 64067300 United States 12/15/2015 08:48 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation	When I was a kid it was rare to hear a siren, now its rare to not hear a siren Outskirts of Knoxville, Tn - not a real high crime area. But damn there is a siren going every minute of the day. They seem to take a little break from midnight to 3 am, but then right back at it. I guess revenue is preceded by the sounds of the chase. This new police state crap is messing with my sleep, and my peace of mind. Laws for revenue should be separated from the laws that protect society. And no siren should be allowed for the revenue based laws. There should also be a different enforcement department for the "laws for revenue" and they should be accountable for all their business dealings - with the full force of the "law that protects society". End rant.

Now its a daily occurrence, around and around and around and so on for no apparent reason. They don't seem to be bothered by all my neighbours tomato plants. Or the guy's up the street. Round and around and around.

I know there are many tech leaps that have to do with sound and light warfare and I wonder if this is why the huge change in the tones of the sirens and the impact the lights have on your brain.

It seems like free advertising at all taxation levels, a reminder of "services" provided.
