How are they made that a water thief won't work? Not arguing with you, just curious.
The Michigan State parks I've been to have gone to a few different spigot types to thwart hosers.
First is the steeply tapered smooth spigot. This spigot is very wide at the top and tapers down quickly, so even a hose clamped water weasel will slide off with the slightest back pressure
Second I've seen is the trough style spigot. Kinda like a rectangular bath tub faucet upside down, water flows into this spigot from the bottom and flows down a trough. You'd need a water weasel 6 inches across to mount this faucet, and I don't know how you'd seal around the open trough part.
