Can a Blimp be used to fight Crime?
470007
The US government has blimps that are supposed to be used to fight crime.  So far they haven't done much good.  We've got a whole array of them along the US-Mexico border carrying radar equipment to look for drug smugglers in low flying aircraft.

Probably, but it's a criminal activity isn't it now...?

Well, that's the point. A professional thief could take note of if that motion detector alerts authorities, or just "turns on a light" or "makes a noise", and then figure out a "risk verses reward" of how fast it would take the police to respond. however, unless you are likely to have something of value, enough value to cause a thief to go to that kind of trouble, then a motion detector will probably be a good deterrent.

No.  The incidence of crime can be studied from many angles.  You can count the number of occurrences in a time period.  You can count the number of occurrences in a time period divided by the current population.  In general, a very small population has less crime than a very large population.  A medium sized population will have more crime than a large population simply because of opportunity.  Gun's are tools.  They have little influence on the amount of crime.  They only influence the means of committing crimes.\nAnother idea.  If everyone were trained and equipped with guns, would you be very quick to pull a gun?  The idea has been suggested that if everyone could be trusted with such responsibility, that no one would risk having a multitude of guns pointed at him because he got mad or wanted to commit a crime.  If you are the only one with a gun, it is easy to pull it out and threaten others from a safety point of view.  Down-side; I don't trust everyone with a gun.

No we can electronically encrypt radio traffic now.  It makes pigeons obsolete.  As for using them to deliver chemical or bacterial agents, our bombs are much better for this purpose.

You can use air compression if you can't find fireworks.  Rig something to blow its top and throw some top cover into the air.  Sound effects will add to it.  The container could contain smoke that you've trapped in it to release.

It may be possible as long as your crime was not a violent crime and was not a crime against children.

Yes, if you let them do" it "because you were to scared to stop them, it's still considered a crime and can have them arrested. \nBut, if you were willing to let them do " it " then sorry, no crime.

No.  For one thing, in many cases that is simply not possible.  Moreover, it is not generally an effective deterrent and could easily give rise to a vendetta culture.\n\nThis colony's future looks dim.
