Didn't police already and always have the power to break up parties, as well as issue household-sized $1000 tickets for "noise violations"? I don't understand why any of the irritated homeowners didn't just get on the police about enforcing existing laws if they wanted to make their general irritation at the rest of humanity known.

Let's see, I can go fight in a war overseas, but if I am making too much noise my mommy gets called? Way to give me a taste of those famous American liberties.
