Ha ha ha - didn't that Colin Barnett use that as an election campaign once? He said it was what the cops in WA wanted and needed, but the Commissioner stood up and said it wasn't what they wanted.

Imagine if they had gotten one for here......

"so, I am saving water on my garden by only watering twice a day in summer and know they are going to waste it all," is what the greens will be saying.
Great idea though, Hamish will love it (for those who saw Rove on Sunday)

Was it worth it? Wouldn't mind hearing from some of you about this.

Will this machinery be used again for future riots?

Since the vast majority of us are over here in WA, it'd have to have a bloody good reach from the nozzle to worry us

I don't believe so, they purchased it for a one off.
