hope you are OK now – its shit when you get in trouble for being the peacemaker

I really dont get it but i see it happening more and more often.
its a shame as it can put a real downer on your nights out 😥
IMO it is getting worse TBH – I’ve been involved in various late night activities since age 15 (yep I was an “early starter”) and even if I was in a commercial venue violence was actually fairly rare during the late 80s/early 90s (then again I never went to many town centre venues, or if I did they were the “alternative” places)
yet today I’m always looking over my shoulder, particularly as in my new area I often stand out in a crowd being the only Asian there and racial tension has increased in this country… everywhere I go, even some free parties I am a bit more wary nowadays
Its shit for promoters as well as it means one lowlife can start a fight and even if they lose and/or get nicked they get your night or even your venue shut down
The saddest thing is this sort of stupid behaviour is exactly why the cops clamp down on all sorts of late night activity, and if we are not careful the authorities may go back to earlier closing times if they think later opening means more violence..
