Lobby entire against the madness of crowds

Noise Free America is a lobby group calling for laws to still the throb of urban life and the din of all the world's leaf-blowers and boom-cars.
Noise Free America's expansive legislative agenda calls for actions -- outlawing gas-powered leaf blowers, punishing owners of barking dogs, impounding loud cars and so forth -- that might seem radical "until people think about it," Rueter said. He prefers to characterize the agenda as "comprehensive."
