Watch this if you haven't seen it already.




PS. I know this is US-related. Canada has a similar law:
Section 11 of the Charter further provides that a person cannot be compelled to be a witness in a proceeding against them (s. 11(c) - Protection against Self-incrimination)

Originally posted by Dirty my friends went to the car to put their bags in, and after an hour another friend and i went to see what was taking them so long, i opened the door to the garage and they were standing outside my car with 7 cops and my car was fully searched. they went into our bags, checked all the pockets of the pants and everything. they asked to search me and my friend...

sounds about right... fuck 14D. while CZ is open they will go after any car they see near the intersection with complete prejudice and talk to them like accusatory pricks. not going to get into it but someone i know got their car searched, and unbelievably got his laptop stolen by these assholes. but in the end, to them he was a CZ patron with no credibility...

take my advice and never drive or park anywhere near college/spadina on a sunday unless you're *100%* prepared to be surrounded by a few police bicycles, get questioned, harassed and have all windows of the car peeked into for no reason other than being in proximity of CZ.

question: ever since the lawsuit was filed, has the cops stopped the harassments or its still the same as before?

Well I saw two cops stop a guy walking out the door on Sunday for some chit chat.... Later-on,I heard they were walking around upstairs.

I have been stopped driving away from Zone. As it has already been said, you have the right to refuse a search. The officer attempted to get my consent to search my vehicle and I simply asked him, "well.. what would happen if I said no?". He didn't reply but he didn't search the car lol.

The first time I went to Zone, I was scared shitless... I had heard all the stories and vowed never to step foot in there, thinking that at least some of the folklore must be true...

I'm 30 years-old. I consider myself to be relatively mature and put-together. I was very naive to the "scene" and partying up until last year. My first trip to Zone was the Civic long-weekend of '08.

I walked in with two CZ veterans; they laughed at my nervousness. As I was getting searched, they entered the club; not realizing I was still with the bouncers. I will never forget walking towards the dark entrance of the club and standing there, intimidated by the loud beats and flashes of glo sticks lol, furious with my friends for leaving me... too scared to walk in until they came to find me.

Now? lol - Like Barb said, I feel safer at CZ than I do at any other club in the city. I've been to a few other after-hour clubs that I certainly felt unsafe inside. All of the bouncers know me by name, (and I them). I have no complaints in regards to the staff.

The patrons? Such a mixed bag of people lol... but apart from the music... the people keep me comming back. Everyone wants to have a good time. As cheesey as it sounds, there is a family-type vibe in the place amongst the regs (and y'a know what? - I have absolutely no shame in calling myself a regular there). I do always ensure that I'm aware of my surroundings but at the same time, I have confidently walked-in on my own many many times without hesitation.

The music is f'n amazing. The vibe is f'n amazing. To the holier-than-thou-art CZ-haters: seriously... your loss
