Classical music as a deterrent?

[rojo]

How about this; Pierce Transit and Tacoma Police are trying to get rid of would-be criminals by playing classical music over loudspeakers...

Hmm, personally I think I would be more tempted to loiter!

Hehe, I know this was also attempted by the danish police to lure away homeless people from sleeping in Copenhagen Central Station... It sheds a somewhat negative light over classical music Why did'nt they play death metal or somehing similar instead??

If they played classical music around the clock I would actually consider making the Central Station my permanent residence

So that must be why they pipe popified Chopin from the trees in my public park! They're trying to get people to leave!
