In its long history of empowering nuisances that shatter civility, the ACLU has chalked up another victory.
This time, it’s a statewide noise abatement law in Florida aimed at the rolling boom boxes whose subwoofers give unwary bystanders an overall massage, often accompanied by obscenities.
As the Tampa Tribune’s Keith Morelli neatly summarizes :
“The throbbing, molar-rattling bass punctuated with profanity laced lyrics coming from the car in front of you carries the same weight as a political candidate driving down the street asking for votes with a bullhorn.”
That’s pretty much what the ACLU argued in an amicus brief and what the Sixth Judicial Circuit for Pinellas Country decided in striking down the law, which curbs car music loud enough to be heard 25 feet away.
ACLU attorney Andrea Flynn Mogensen, who filed the brief on behalf of Richard Catalano of Clearwater, a lawyer who likes to blast his stereo, said of the state, “If they were trying to prevent the nuisance of noise, there is no difference in loud music and political speech.”

More than a third of these cases are caused by over-exposure to excessive sound levels, like loud music or lawnmowers. Dr. John House of the House Research Institute explains how these hearing issues are caused.
"We're more prone to having a problem with higher frequency exposure, so a low frequency sound is not as damaging than a higher frequency," says House.
The problem isn't subwoofers and car window-rattling bass, but seemingly innocuous headphones. "Young people are listening to their iPods at a very high level, and wearing earbuds which puts [music] right into their ear."
While hearing loss is permanent, it's completely preventable.
That's why the House Research Institute and Kiss leader Paul Stanley joined forces to educate teens on how to protect their hearing at "Sound Rules! A Sound & Hearing Celebration." The after-school event took place at the Director's Guild of America Theatre in Los Angeles on Thursday, May 12.
