That really sucks. Right now there is a bill before Congress called R.A.V.E. (Reducing Americans Vulnerability to Ecstacy), which if passed will pretty much let the gov't. shut down any club it wants and fine the owners up to $500,000. All that they will have to do is suspect that there are drugs being taken at any club and that will allow them to shut it down. With the Republicians now in control, this is VERY bad news.

If I wanna go fuck my own life up by taking drugs then I should have every right to do so, as long as I'm not hurting anyone else. For this country to allow, and make money from, alcohol and tobacco, and yet outlaw marijuana is the biggest piece of hypocritical bullshit I've ever heard of. I don't even take drugs, but in the eyes of my government the music I listen to is linked to certain substances, so now I shouldn't be able to go out and enjoy the music I love. Fuck that. Rant over.


You got a great attitude, especially considering you don't even do drugs. I agree with you 100%

This is the thing that gets to me about Ameriacan politics. The government doesn't give two shits about the people. It just gets worse and worse to. The harmful use of drugs is on the rise and they make it worse by creating things tike the RAVE act. Or using the old Crack House Act from the 80s to bust clubs who are providing safe settings for people doing E. I was so pissed off to read about how the DEA and Police are using things like having free access to water, chill out rooms and educational info about drugs availble at clubs as a sign of drug use. This means that people wont get these things cause clubs dont want to get charged with running a crack house. This can only do one thing cause harm to people.
How many people must be thrown in jail or die before America will change its policys on drugs.
Fucking makes me sick.
Worst of all it spills over to us in Canada. The only reason marijuana is illegal here is cause of the states.
When that rupublican **** Richard Nixon diclared War On Drugs he unleashed a terrible plague on the world.
I just hope that things will change before they get any worse.

why doesn't all the well known djs/producers in the states.....and those who support the states scene (european djs/producers) get together and stop this bullshit. if all of the big names, with huge capitol, got together.....they could put an end to all this crap. our scene is falling apart. i hate this fuckin country when it comes to laws regarding R.A.V.E. and regarding pot. the one thing i want before i die is to see pot legalized (at least decriminalized) and for our fuckin country to put a tax on it just like with cigarettes and alcohol. oh my god, i cannot even write the disgust i am feeling right now.
