"Kill that Noise or I'll kill you."
People often complain that loud noise drives them crazy. But in Britain, it is driving people to violence.

----- A London man could no longer stand the reggae music from a party next door. He set fire to the hallway outside the party. A woman trying to escape jumped out of a window from the third floor and killed herself. The London man received a life sentence for murder.
----- A man from Wales went to complain about a loud music from a neighbour's home. He was stabbed by the neighbour.
----- A man in Winchester, because of a constantly barking dog, hit his neighbour with an iron bar. The dog's owner fell, hit his head on the road and died four days later.
