Symbiate Posted April 8, 2011 http://au.news.yahoo.com/thewest/a/-/wa/9142752/hippie-parties-worrying-cops/ Police are concerned about an increase in dangerous "hippie" parties in bush where revellers aged from their teens into their 50s binge on drugs.Boddington officer in charge Sgt Mick Sears said a bush party in Bannister at the weekend at which a 16-year-old boy was treated for a drug overdose and 16 people were charged with drug offences was just one of many similar events which had taken place in bush south of Perth. Sgt Sears said the parties were advertised through social networking websites rather than traditional media in an apparent attempt to keep them secret from police and other authorities. Police had found evidence of numerous bush parties held in bush south of Perth in recent months and at Easter last year charged several people with drug offences after they uncovered a similar "hippie" event in a national park at Mount Cook. The party in Bannister which went from Saturday night through to the early hours of Sunday morning had been attended by 300 people ranging from underage teenagers to people in their 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s. Police stopped more than 70 cars as they left the party, charging four motorists with drink driving and 16 people with possession of drugs including cannabis and LSD. Sgt Sears said the organisers of the party had brought their own generators to power lights and sound systems. "We were surprised by just how many people had drugs at this party," he said. "They were all dressed like hippies and very polite but there were a lot of people affected by drugs." I had a friend who went to said doof, he told me that the police were searching cars without any apparent reasonable suspicion. Don't the police have anything better to do?

The Dude Posted April 11, 2011 (edited) Sgt Sears said the parties were advertised through social networking websites rather than traditional media in an apparent attempt to keep them secret from police and other authorities. wtf? OR... OR! Just maybe it's a lot cheaper and easier to use the interwebs? ...to evade cops. Cops are usually reading the street mags to see where the advertised parties are at because they don't have access to social networking sites.

Foo Posted April 14, 2011 Who else is betting that the tool will end up quitting psychedelics, and becoming a pharma junkie in return? He's 16. I doubt hes aloud out of his room for the next year. I detest the fact that there are SO SO MANY underagers at WA doof's. Not really a child friendly event IMO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
random Posted April 14, 2011 Ouch, so quick to judge. Sure that particular 16yo may have been foolish, but what 16yo isn't? Still a kid in all reality. Perhaps if people looked out for each other a wee bit better, then things like that wouldn't happen so often. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
