Pages (8): « 1 2 [3] 4 5 6 7 8 »

I went to go today and I was crossing the street these cops in a car were laughing so hard at my friend and I. It was closed by then so we went to the basement. It's pretty priiiity good there.

trust me... it's not cool. the cops raided this loft party a bunch of us were at last summer. scary shit! one minute you are dancing away having a great time... the next minute the cops storm in, order everyone to the ground with their hands in the air, and start handcuffing random people and searching them. the sad thing is that i don't think they even arrested anybody at this party. they gave out a few tickets but thats it. there was about 20 people i knew there and not one of them had anything on them.

lol you are on crack. Seinfeld is the best sitcom ever, bar none.

Anyway, haha, passed by the area this Sunday morning, and was surprised at how empty it was and at the cops chilling in the CAMH parking lot. Should have guessed it got raided again.

P.S. How awesome is it that CZ is right across the street from a rehab centre? They should just paint giant yellow arrows from CZ to it on the pavement.

Originally posted by tonybologna To answer your question- Stephen Harper is launching a U.S. style war on drugs. There is a Bill C-26 that increases penalties for marijuana and makes all amphetamine based products including MDMA and methamphetamines as well as GHB Class 1 rather than Class 3 substances. That means they are lumping these into the same categories as heroin and crack. This goes directly against recently published scientific studies urging a reclassifications of drugs according to harmful effects: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/6474053.stm Police agencies across Ontario and Canada have also been told to stop issuing warnings for small possessions of marijuana and to write tickets. Don't think that the police raids at CZ and their presence at the other Sunday morning place isn't a directly result of these new policies.

um... I don't support the conservatives at all, infact I'm a member of the liberal party, but your facts are a little off. when the liberals were moving towards decriminalization, that wouldn't' have meant it marijuana would be legal. it would have mean that rather then getting prosecuted criminally you would get a fine(ie ticket).

Possession of marijuana is an indictable offense. You don't get "tickets" for that. you get charged under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act for that. It's a schedule II drug.. possession could result in a maximum 5 years in prison. That's been law since 1996.

C-26 doesn't increase penalties for possession of marijuana.. it would set minimum sentences for marijuana traffickers and marijuana growers.

You can be quite sure that I never had the zone in me, poorly constructed sentence or not.

how about the Dj's, the sound guy, the people who work the bars/coatcheck.

They're all enablers.

Thanks for the clarification. I wasn't sure if they had gotten to the point of writing "tickets" before the liberal party was booted. Either way, the police i'm sure in many instances were "looking the other way" before with regards to small time marijuana possession but now individuals will be charged more often for that offense. This doesn't have much to do with C-26, but is more of an "unwritten rule."

u really think those people dont have jobs during the week?

What a shame ..... and I was going to go for the 1st since Jan this weekend, thank god I decided to take a break from the scene when I did ....

Funny story about a year ago I was busted before for possession of several substances and we met out lawyer at CZ who was friends with the crown and he got us off with a $700 fine.

Originally posted by lawrenceq i agree with you Rach, I'm far from being a dad but I do think about the mistakes politicians are making and the reasons they do the shit they do... just to get re-elected. A war on drugs is gonna do what exactly?... this just goes to show that media myths and moral panics are huge in our society, giving the public the impression that those of us who prefer these kinds of clubs are usually stigmatized with the label of being part of a "deviant" subculture. stupid politicians and their vested interests

Thank you, that's exactly what I meant but I couldn't manage such eloquence on a Sunday night

Originally posted by jsibilin what do they do with the marijuana once they seize it? did people get hassled for having a couple j's on them? I know at the hot box cafe ur allowed to smoke j's there but why is comfort zone soo different? i mean why did the police bother with weed? coke and g should be targeted. weed should be legal to smoke there. just my two cents/

so its alright to do some illegal drugs but not alright to do others.....okay.....that makes sense.

Originally posted by Kytracid Which people? The drug dealers...or the one's that facilitate the drug dealers?

both. lol.

of course i mean the staff of the place including DJs, security, owners, bookers....(so i guess the people that facilitate?).

also, at least the drug dealers were in one place, now they will be out on the street, dealing drugs all around. oooooooh, drugs. OMG.

Fixed Evan

To those feeling bad about the lost jobs if CZ goes down: They're not exactly skilled jobs. I feel more sorry for the construction workers who lose their jobs. The bartenders and bouncers will find another place to work; CZ wasn't their career path. At least I hope not.
