The Future of Law Enforcement: Bouncers
SWIM went out to a club the other night, and the security was akin to a gaza strip border guard. One bouncer checking ID, the other taking tickets and the other doing a search
The search was just short of full cavity, and made SWIM realise that his secret pocket wasn't so secret afterall. Being a hardened clubber SWIM knew the score as the bouncer put SWIMs stash behind the desk and looked at him. "How about SWIM gives you £20 to forget the last 5 minutes". The bouncer duely accepted and said "SWIU be careful with that stuff". SWIMs friend wasn't so lucky and was never to see his stash again.
Upon entering the club SWIM was swamped with requests for pills, seemed as though the rigourous search caught alot of other people out that night. Make's SWIM wonder what happens to the procedes of such searches, probably redistributed in SWIMs opinion.
This is by no means the worst case, SWIM once went to a club where you basically had to strip, lift up trouser legs, jumpers take off shoes, regardless of your gender, and you had to throw away your chewing gum...there were alot of sore mouths the morning after SWIM can tell you that much.
SWIM has been pretty lucky really, one of SWIMs friend was beaten up by a bouncer and robbed off everything.
But you know what SWIM likes these vigilante law enforcers, beats the police black and white view that drugs are a bad thing, they know you want to have a good time and so what they make a little money on the side.
Anyone else have similar experiences to share? Would you prefer a cop to a heavy handed bouncer? Any idea where the mountains of contraband end up? Ever met an honest bouncer who refused your money? etc. etc.
