I think there can be a difference between 'feeling bad for' and 'wanting to keep the place open for.'

I've tried to hold back and just observe what people had to say but I can't take this shit!
EVERYBODY WHO'S JUST BEEN TO ZONE ONCE OR TWICE OR EVEN A DOZEN TIMES, OR JUST READS THESE BOARDS A LITTLE TOO MUCH DOESN'T KNOW A GODDAMNED THIGN ABOUT ZONE!
The employees at Zone are some very nice people who shouldn't have to put up with this shit every weekend. Some of them do rely on their pay check. The fucking audio tech pays his rent with the money he makes from Zone. So if you people want to go and call the employees enablers you can go fuck yourself. They're mothers, fathers, students, and hard working people just like you and me, so go fuck yourselves for judging these people and calling them enablers.
Maybe that stupid kids mother who crys on the news is an enabler for turning a blind eye on her drug dealing son, then wants to weep and lie that her son just tried G in January and it's all Zone's fault. He delt that shit along with everything else you dumb bitch. Now u want to take away the places we go to release some energy and have a good time!
DJ's like Deko-Ze, Nathan and Carlo who spin there every weekend I'm sure care that they're losing a check every time Zone is closed.
So if you people want to discuss Zone cuz it's the hot topic right now, move the fuck on becuase you're only spreading rumors and talking about shit you have no real idea about.
FUCK OFF!

I wonder how many T4 tax receipts get issued by the zone to all of these people who work so hard there.
probably all of them, unless they're "contract" workers and invoice for work performed.
DJs there have to sign an invoice in order to get paid.

just as much you passionately care about your stance..why don't you accept the fact that some people care about theirs...not everyone has to fuckin like the zone and what it represents..and let me TELL YOU something dude..I happen to be friends with some of those dj's and they know that this is the way of the business...they have been at this game for a long time....all the promoters who used to promote raves..who basically had to abondon their fucking businesses because the city made it so difficult to hold raves...it's the UNDERGROUND scene and it is always shifting and evolving..and i'm sorry to have to tell you..nothing lasts forever! I wish there were liquid adrenaline raves still goin on...they rocked..but you know what....the times have changed....
companies go bankrupt..people get laid off..they lose their jobs..a fuckin immigrant can come here and works in a shit job cuz the degree he/she worked for back home means SHIT here..and he has to support his fuckin family on 10 bucks an hour..now that's SAD....there is so much shit goin on this world..and you're angered by this..THIS is your cause to support...
and you lost all credibility when you talked shit about a dead guy and his mother..while in the same post standing up for the zone employees..
i'm sorry to ramble..but I'M sick of people acting like THIS is the end of the world....and to come at people that don't support the zone with such blatant hostility..fuck that noise..

Wow, you must have got the mean cops.
A few months ago I was at a rave at a photography studio that got raided by the cops around 3 or 4 in the morning due to a noise complaint.
So I was dancing away having a great time and then the DJ lowers the music. I turn around to see a bunch of cops standing at the door and then say to my friends "um...should we go?" A bunch of people stop dancing (including my group) and just look around really confused. The cops continued to stand there and said nothing. My friends and I decided to just get our coats and leave.
It was then I overheard/saw the funniest conversation
A candy raver wearing white fun fur pants was saying something to one of the cops, I couldn't hear what though. The cop (a big jock type) just kept looking at the candy raver in a very odd way...Kinda like he was from another planet. Then the cop yelled out to one of his buddies:
cop: "Hey look...look, it's like Star Wars. His pants are like Star Wars"
I swear, the cop was ready to burst out laughing.
And that was my experience with cops busting a party.
