Seems a bit extreme to me, what, is partying illegal now?
Is there no better way this could have been handled?
I think it is insane.
What's next?

I don't know, but I think they should close the borders.

Well, this was Utah. That stopped me from wondering what happened right away. Not that it was right.

:confused:

That is some seriously fcked up sht. :mad: Sometimes I'm shocked at what our "free" country's gov't gets away with. It's disgusting.

why?? if people come here legally or for holiday...then cool...but the people who sneak across and then somehow get to stay and get our free help for food, housing and medical even though they are not here legally...now that is some seriously fcked up sht.

We're talking about a rave, a party. Not the border. :confused:

oh....my bad...carry on...good night..:)

One post in the utraves thread says that the location was a regular party location...that had been regularaly busted in this manner. The OP of the thread even seems to hint that the promoter and the government weren't exactly in agreement about the party going on in the first place.

Me thinks there's more to this story than meets the eye.

So did they catch Osama there? or did he slip through the cracks again?

There is almost always more then meets the eye, but I am wary of believing the police account of the operation(which I think is pretty sad), just as much as I am wary to believing the accounts of the partygoers and promoters.

But, after sifting through some of it, it seems that the promoter had all the proper permits for this party, or at least believed he did, at least had the ones that the govt officials said he needed<tin foil hat>(they coulda lied to him and left one out)</tin foil hat>, from some of the accounts, the police ripped the permit from his hand when he protested to them and showed them he had the proper paperwork filed. Not sure exactly what happened, but even if not 100% legal, this seems a bit to extreme of a way to break up a party. Extremism is extremism, be it islamic, or police methodology(sp?).

Oh, and no word on if Osama was found there, or if he was allowed to escape again.
