<BR>because i am so saddened by the way things are correctly being shown to the
<BR>public as a representation of our lives. i made the decision to go to
<BR>nocturnal which i will not go into as ben said put it to rest but what i will
<BR>say is i spent about 15-20 minutes speaking with 6 san bernadino sheriff's on
<BR>sunday morning. my question to them as we were taking down a vendor booth
<BR>was "does this kind of thing bother you as much as all the drinking and
<BR>partying that takes place on the river?" there response was yes and that i
<BR>had expected but what i didn't was that the reason and they addressed that
<BR>people die on the river also was so that wasn't the biggest surprise...what
<BR>the said was "we can regulate that and this is just a mess...people see and
<BR>do things to openly and to young at raves."
<BR>
<BR>as i looked around all i saw was mess.
<BR>it seems that is what people see of us "MESS"
<BR>so whether it was at the nightmare called nocturnal or at the beach or the
<BR>park even a venue where you are cleaning up or have hired a crew to clean we
<BR>need to show the world the we are not a "MESS" most of us are adults and have
<BR>very respectable lives however i am sure that if you say i am going to this
<BR>patry all night people judge you as a user and a "MESS" shouldn't we try to
<BR>start changing this view?
