Party Vibe

Unfortunately with London being relatively close, a lot of people here having drugs dealing links with the capital and many more young people having access to cars than 10 or 20 years ago this will continue to be a problem. My local friends got stalked from a London party and lost their rig recently.

And the “friends” of whoever got hurt should have gone straight to NNUH, James Paget or West Suffolk (whichever is nearest), or called in Eastamb. Yes, the feds will arrive too if you call a Ambulance to a rave (standard protocol when they have to attend night time events including licensed ones) but if the party gets locked off so be it. Peoples health is more important.

I hope the lad recovers but if he suffers any complications from lack of medical treatment his family have the right to sue his friends and the party organisers (i.e yourself) in civil Court. This is different to criminal law, but it means that anyone organising a party has a duty of care to everyone involved (which is why the landowner quite rightly stopped the party and sent those jobanowls on their way to hospital)

BTW I strongly advise those involved to swallow their pride and go to the Police especially if the event wasn’t illegal.

Wannabe gangsters won’t go away after a “few slaps”, they will come back for revenge. A lot of party organisers have learned this the hard way, to the point some have had to sheepishly cooperate with the Police whether they like it or not.

You lot simply don’t have the power to take away their freedom of movement like the proper criminal justice system does, and I guess most of you aren’t stupid enough to want to try and execute your enemies and lose 20 years of your youth in jug for it..

Often these scrotes are wanted for many other crimes and your report could be the one what sends them down. GBH and false imprisonment carry a sentence of several years. There is Crimestoppers as well if you don’t want to talk to actual cops for whatever reason. Both them and old bill can work with Facebook and get evidence that you can’t.

there are a lot of people in BSE (and other parts of Suffolk) who originally came from London estates and have often been put out of estates for anti-social behaviour etc, or even relocated for their own safety.

I’d tread carefully though. Even if you are wholly capable of overpowering your enemies, once the party scene becomes known for “gang activity” and “criminal families taking turf” which is exactly what is going on here, the cops will start trying to lock down everything for everyones safety.

Its also because of this why its near impossible to do a rave in Suffolk or Essex (including legal ones), not simply because a few fields get trampled and some elderly bumpkins kicked up. Ironically EA free parties became popular because there was slightly less gang activity than in mainstream licensed venues, particularly after the mid 1990s and the fall out from the Leah Betts case.

I do appreciate a lot of younger people would have been small kids when certain shit went on in the 1990s, but the rest of society has long memories.

federals have ‘more important things to do’, like speeding tickets, dealing with drunk idiots on friday and saturday nights.

ironically this was the very reason why unlicensed parties were left alone. But as soon as people are regularly getting beaten up and robbed at these things, there comes a point where they have to “do something”. Of course their view will be “no parties, less crime..”
