a good example of doublethink and denial ;)a good example of doublethink and denial 😉
innit! “much bigger picture” makes people believe that altho they may disagree with what happened, there are better reasons for it which the public arent privy to. its like noninformation that induces conformity. nothing like a vaugue threat to keep people in line, eh?
i had to laugh at “People come to Brixton to have fun and enjoy the nightlife, they do not want to come to clubs where they are being peddled drugs.” what a pile of shit. who the fuck goes clubbing in brixton and doesn’t want to either see or participate in drug use?
having said that, i was in brixton a few weeks back on the piss, and walking down coldharbour lane i was shitting myself. it wasnt the dealers that worried me, a simple no usually gets them off your back. its the strung out crackheads, tryna scab a ciggie, or some change, or what ever they can get.
no ammount of high profile busts are gonna stop people taking crack, or any drug for that matter, it is an endemic problem that has more to do with the disgusting nature of our society and teh need to escape from it than the opportunistic people that pofit from peoples addiction. the idea that dealers create users is absolute bullshit. its blatantly teh other way round.
the only way to make less crackheads and junkies is to make society fairer. teh labour party went a long way in the fifties setting up the welfare state, nhs and unionised work etc but that good effort has been constantly undermined by first the tories and now new labour. the climate of greed, backstabbing and lack of respect for your fellow man that has flourished in this country is what creates drug abusers in my opinion, along with the failure of the state to provide a fair deal to everyone and its insistance on controlling the population with fear and hate.
i find it hard to beleive that the pigs think they can win this mythical war on drugs theyve invented, so it does make me wonder what theri motives for fucking up everyones good night out, and i can only assume that its to throw their weight around to convince themselves theyre worth two shits.
the fridge is a relatively safe club, there are plenty more dodgy venues in that area, but i get the feeling that the cops dont have the balls to go there, cos they might actually have to deal with serious criminals, who are clearly way harder than the cops and have em wrapped round their little fingers. not only that, but brown envelopes prolly changed hands, get me?
untill i see a copper or two walking down coldharbour lane, or city road in bristol, i will continue to have next to no respect for a police force that are nothing more than weak bullies.
