BritishInvasion Riot

[Clashed]

Alright. Last night was the Invasion. And oh yes, please excuse my bad grammer or spelling. It's pretty earlier and I'm trying to type this quick...

Ok, last night, british invasion was under way. Everything was going good, Broken Bones were playing, then a small group of Neo-Nazis start **** and well every ****in skin and punk start beating the **** out of them. And yes this goes on, and Broken Bones is still playing. Well they start chanting "**** White Power" and well I am too. So they throw about 2 small mace bombs. No biggy. Nothing really big.

But then, this is what none of the news reports say.

They throw 3 tear gas bombs, the big ones and it rushs into the Hanger. Filling it up and leaving everyone to get out, and take it, they threw them on the side where there are about 10 doors, and the other side is only 4. So i'm one of the first ones running for the door screaming, "Gas Gas!" and I grab my chick and friends, snice I'm the biggest, I'm leading the way. And the **** fills up the Hanger so quick. I've never been tear gassed in a closed this like this before, so like anyone else, I thought it was when the white smoke hit you, thats when it got to you. And didn't know these things were so consetrated. But now, when the smoke had filled up 25% of the room, I guess the vapors had got the rest. And I don't know if they're reporting deaths. But something must of happen, because at the door, there was people getting trampeled on. Because, this ****in tear gas, pretty much was so consetrated that it didn't like you breath.

So yeah, everyones outside. And there's a building there and they break into it, and take out a plasma tv and start stomping on it. And then where everyones stoped and trying to find their friends and trying to find some water to get the ****in burning out of your whole face, they shoot another bomb, and everyone breaks out. Not as bad as the one before, because we were already in open air. So yeah, everyone starts going up E st. Breaking ****, some Nazis are at the corner getting surronded by people chanting, "brown power, brown power!" and boom my friend goes right in the middle and clips the guy in the face and everyone jumps in beating the **** out of the guys. And yeah. I grab my friends and we start walking up the corner. And everythings going pretty crazy, every store is getting broken windows anything that you think can be ****ed up is. Ok, we finally get to Raitlo, and we see a cop close the street right there. So I call up the rest of my friends and tell them to keep walking til they hit that street, so the wouldn't be caught in the rade. Alright. So we all meet up at the corner. Stay there til about oh I'd say 11. Then we start walking back to the freeway, because we parked our cars over there.

Ok, so we're going. And I'm sure you guys have seen the Conflict album with the big riot squad lined up. I swear, it was just like that. And we're like is that the riot squad and some other punks are turning the street and bam, they run into them, they ****in get beaned and gassed and finally when they're on the floor they get tied. So we stand there just looking in amazement, and we see that they're marching faster and faster. So we jam up the street. And well long story from there, 2black guys with a truck try getting us out of there and putting us in the back, and we're about to pass all the havoc til some Helicopter starts following us with the light. And we all jump and spread. We all get back together, and we're walking along the orange, almost to the freeway, and some cops stops us, and I'm not ****in kidding about this, this is exactly how it went down.

Car stops in front of us.
"Turn the **** around."
The cop gets out, with something that looks like a garnade launcher.
We're all turned around with our hands on our head our legs spread out.
Yet they didn't tell us to do that. We just sorta knew.
And they're just making us stand there.
Like 10 minutes pass. And they're like "Leave."
And we're like "Do you know how we can get to the freeway?"
and the one with the gun says, "Didn't you hear me? Get the **** out of my city!"

And well yeah, we walk up the street and we find it, and we leave.
Yes what a night.

[Rise Me Up]

Holy s'hit. That is awesome.

[sketchyjoe]

That sounds like a legendary time.

Here's the news report on it. (http://www.forbes.com/home/feeds/ap/2006/03/05/ap2570943.html)

[echos]

"tomorrow you're homeless, tonight it's a blast"

[Jersey's Best Dancer]

I read about this on Punknews. It's nice to hear from someone actually there. Sounds like it was a crazy night.

[Jersey's Best Dancer]

These are the ppl that make punk look bad. I can't believe they think that tearing up a jack in the box after their show got shut down will do anything or would be cool...

[sketchyjoe]

Pics and another story.

[clustifux]

http://www.sbsun.com/news/ci_3570768

Headlining the event were several hard-core punk bands, including G.B.H., The Addicts, Broken Bones and Vice Squad. It was billed as one of the most famous punk-rock festivals on the British Invasion 2K6 Web site.

Ha ha, I like how they call "The Addicts" a hardcore punk band.

[Drop The Baby]

I@m a bit knackered and drunk to read the article, but i read a little about it earlier in the day. F'uck racists.

[AIRIC]

That sucks, but is pretty awesome at the same time.

[faith and fiction]

That sucks, but is pretty awesome at the same time.Seriously. If I could smash in the windows of major corporations and get away with it, I definitely would.

Kudos to those skins!

[Ghostfire3]

What major corporations? I don't think anyone was smashing any major corporations's windows. Just random places.

[faith and fiction]

Jack In The Box is a pretty major corporation. Durr.

[Flagjacket]

Right, as was EVERY BUILDING DAMGED. I'm pretty sure they smashed more than a ****in' burger joint.

[faith and fiction]

Right, as was EVERY BUILDING DAMGED. I'm pretty sure they smashed more than a ****in' burger joint.It's called insurance, buddy. Look into it.

[Flagjacket]

Right, and that makes wanton violence A-OK.

[Clashed]

I wish I had better pictures, but here's one of us looking at the riot squad and one of helicopter above.

and the bands, GBH, Adicts, Vice Squad, Varukers, Broken Bones, Naked Aggersion, Total Chaos, Resilence, and Funeral Dress.

[faith and fiction]

Right, and that makes wanton violence A-OK.No, it makes wanton vandilism A-OK.

[Jersey's Best Dancer]

Just cause u have insurance, doesn't mean everything will be covered. And even if it's all fixed, your insurance goes up.

[Led-ZeppelinIV]

Dude, if you want positive change, and you decide smashing windows is the way to get it, you're a ****ing moron.

[faith and fiction]

Dude, if you want positive change, and you decide smashing windows is the way to get it, you're a ****ing moron.But if you want to let out all of that teen angst you have built up from your mom bitching about your patches...grab a chair and have at it!

[Skippy Prat]

These are the ppl that make punk look bad. I can't believe they think that tearing up a jack in the box after their show got shut down will do anything or would be cool...

i dont think they care, they were havin fun

[Mr. Ron]

Why do punks always smash windows when they want to protest something or when they're mad?

[faith and fiction]

Why do punks always smash windows when they want to protest something or when they're mad?They're really just trying to litter the ground in shards of glass so they have a reason to be wearing combat boots.

[Led-ZeppelinIV]

But if you want to let out all of that teen angst you have built up from your mom bitching about your patches...grab a chair and have at it!
I can't tell if you're being serious.

[Lazybassplr56]

It's not that hard.

[Mr. Ron]

They're really just trying to litter the ground in shards of glass so they have a reason to be wearing combat boots.
Of course.....


>_>

[smokersdieyounger]

If a nazi was stabbed, waste of police time.

Hopefully wasted wont get cancelled, cos its much the same line up.

[Mr. Ron]

If a nazi was stabbed, waste of police time.

Even if he was a nazi, he deserved to get help.

[Flagjacket]

Even if he was a nazi, he deserved to get help.
If I saw a dude ont he ground bleeding and sporting a big *** swastika on his shoulder or shirt or something, I wouldn't exactly be the first person to drag him to a hospital.

[Shtein]

/Amen

I'd probably help him out but kick him in the nuts several times as I did.

[DaveToopes]

If an asian or other minority was the one to help him out, it could change his mind about racism. You gotta forgive sometimes.

[ibanezman575]

this kinda stuff happens, on a much, much smaller scale, all the time where i live in virginia beach. i was at a global threat show a while ago, and police were called to respond to a pretty big fight outside the venue

[DaveToopes]

I have been to Virginia Beach. It was really cold when I went though. That's not how I like my beaches.

[Mr. Ron]

If an asian or other minority was the one to help him out, it could change his mind about racism. You gotta forgive sometimes.
True.

[ibanezman575]

its a pretty dangerous place after dark
theres cops on friggin horseback at every block

have you ever been to a show there?

[DaveToopes]

Nope, I was there for one of my brother's soccer tournaments when I was 12.

[ibanezman575]

lol

[DaveToopes]

All I remember is that I ate kalamari and got sea taffy or something.

[ibanezman575]

saltwater taffy

[DaveToopes]

That's right. It was pretty good.

So I'm seeing Latterman on Wednesday. I bet there will be crazy riots after!

[sketchyjoe]

If an asian or other minority was the one to help him out, it could change his mind about racism. You gotta forgive sometimes.
Like that episode of ER.

[DaveToopes]

I don't watch much TV. What happened in that episode?

[ViciousLove]

Wow, that's crazy.

[Led-ZeppelinIV]

Sid Vicious blows.

[smokersdieyounger]

Everyone taking the piss out of his avatar blows, get over it

[DaveToopes]

Sid Vicious blows.

You're an asshole.

[I Am A Jerk]

[Flagjacket]

Sid Vicious rules.

[AIRIC]

ITT: Noobie learns to flame.

[I Am A Jerk]

I was on the adicts myspace (omgz punx!1!) the day after the british invasion and all the comments were similar to "sucks I didn't get to see you last night, oh well, I'll just catch you in a week or so." It kind of pissed me off because I like the adicts alot and they never come to Canada, yet people in California can see them like twice in a month.

[Flagjacket]

Social D fans can see Social D every night of the week if they live in California. Seirously, they booked like, 20 straight nights in LA.

[DaveToopes]

I seen Social D!

[I Am A Jerk]

I wish I lived in California, or at least got to visit it for a week or two. I would definetly want to check out an Adolescents show or something.

[DaveToopes]

I love the Adolescents. I was debating whether I should have a Dag Nasty avatar, or an Adolescents avatar. Obviously I chose Dag Nasty, but it was close.

Yeah, I saw that too! And it kind of annoyed me as well.

[Led-ZeppelinIV]

Sid Vicious rules.
What was better, his awesome heroin addiction or playing bass for one of the worst bands of all time?
ITT: Noobie learns to flame.
I've been here since July 04.

So does Led Zeppelin but you don't see anyone here complaining.
Commander Keen kicks ***.

[Flagjacket]

I'd hope that you respond this well to sarcasm in real life too.

[Led-ZeppelinIV]

I'd hope that you respond this well to sarcasm in real life too.
The internet does not display tones of voice as well as you might think.

[Flagjacket]

The internet does not display tones of voice as well as you might think.
You'd think that with all the Sid Vcious argument going ona bove my post it'd be obvious.

Whatever. Cool?

[Led-ZeppelinIV]

Cool. :cool:

[DaveToopes]

I've been here since July 04.

Congrats!

[Led-ZeppelinIV]

Congrats!
Thanx! It's liek totlly sUper!

[DaveToopes]

[faith and fiction]

Sid Vicious was who you always wished you could be when your mom told you to be home before dark.

[AIRIC]

Definintely.

[I Am A Jerk]

Commander Keen kicks ***.

haha yeah. It is a pretty "gnarly" game, I must say. Old SKeWL ViDya GameZ LoLzoRz.

[rockhut]

Sid Vicious was who you always wished you could be when your mom told you to be home before dark.
No need to be Sid Vicious ,just make up an excuse:)

[AIRIC]

The point he was trying to make was that if you were Sid Vicious you wouldn't need to make an excuse.

[Flagjacket]

The point he was trying to make was that if you were Sid Vicious you wouldn't need to make an excuse.
Wrong! (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sid_Vicious#The_Deaths_of_Sid_and_Nancy)

[DaveToopes]

Sid Vicious can do anything.

[AIRIC]

Sid Vicious changed punk rock forever.

[DaveToopes]

Yeah, after he invented it.

[Flagjacket]

Yeah, after he invented it.
No no no no no, the RAMONES invented punk rock!

[DaveToopes]

I'm pretty sure punk rock started when Sid Vicious was born.

[Flagjacket]

I'm pretty sure punk rock started when Sid Vicious was born.
Hmm, I never thought about it that way before....

[faith and fiction]

Face it, Sid Vicious is the mind behind your rude attitude.

[AIRIC]

It actually started 9 months before he was born because life starts at conception.

[Culture Shock]

It actually started 9 months before he was born because life starts at conception.

I'll see you in court.

[DaveToopes]

HER BODY, HER DECISiON!

[Lazybassplr56]

This riot is proof that the Inland Empire blows so much chode.

[dAmaGecOntrol_77]

This was like the unseen show at the troubadour last year but like so many times worst. Wasn't there for the british this year but friends say it was brutal and you can tell from the news.

[Clashed]

Yeah when they bull rushed the doors.
Yeah was way less than this, that was in Los Angeles, instead of cops showing up first it was the riot squad...
The don't let **** like that pass in LA.

[ViciousLove]

I posted in here and it suddenly became a Sid Vicious thread for a few posts. Awesome.

[AIRIC]

Sid Vicious is really awful though.

[Ghostfire3]

I posted in here and it suddenly became a Sid Vicious thread for a few posts. Awesome.

Awesome. Cuz Sid was so PunX rock!

[ViciousLove]

Um, okay.

[DaveToopes]

We were making fun of Sid.

[ViciousLove]

I saw.

[faith and fiction]

Awesome. Cuz Sid was so PunX rock!
See, this is what I'm saying. People wouldn't be such smug a'ssholes if it weren't for Sid, so stop knocking people you try to emulate.
