Metalcore1487 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 this is from a couple days ago but I doubt anyone would have posted it. The only reason I am is because of the hate for Boston, I find this ridiculous of the Police in Boston http://www.altpress.com/news/entry/boston_police_seek_to_crack_down_on_moshing Boston police seek to crack down on moshing March 13, 2012by Bryne Yancey Share 'Dancing is a First Amendment right, but the behavior itself is a violation, especially when it becomes dangerous and a public safety hazard,' Boston police spokeswoman Officer Nicole Grant said.The city’s licensing board took the matter under advisement after a City Hall hearing yesterday, while the club was ordered to put up illuminated signs saying moshing is not allowed."Many Boston-area musicians have taken issue with the crackdown. Unearth vocalist Trevor Phipp told the Herald, "This new anti-moshing policy proves once again that the city of Boston hates heavy music. It’s disheartening and maddening to know your hometown doesn’t support or understand your music scene." The Red Chord frontman Guy Kozowyk added, "The city of Boston needs to stay out of it. I understand cracking down on fighting, but (moshing) is a form of expression. It’s ridiculous they’re cracking down on this now. There are plenty of other problems."What do you think?

Metalcore1487 Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 Dude, get over it. The SC Finals was only a game. Their players were only doing what they were supposed to, that is trying to win the series, as were ours. Their city is actually quite nice from all accounts, as their people say about our city when they visit here. We have idiots in politics and law enforcement there, as we do here and everywhere else.

Aixtek Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 Too funny... Went to a club, saw people dancing, no one was injured, but didn't like it, so decided to shut it down. Dude, get over it.
