I'm looking to interview anyone who has been robbed or attacked in the Halifax Common. It doesn't have to be recent. Please send an email to drunktankmemoirs@hotmail.com with a brief account and a number at which you can be reached.

Thanks,
Craig

You may recall a couple years back a kid got beat half to death with his own skateboard in the Commons. It was when a lot of "swarmings" were going on, like summer 2002 maybe. He was in the Hospital for like 2 months. I will give him your addy.

I have a drunk tank memoir (this memory inspired by your email adress),
It was new years 1999,becoming 2000. I got picked up by the fuzz on Barrinton ,right by the superstore.It was like 12-15am.

I ended up in the tank with no shoes, belt, dignity and watched these 3 guys from "sprytown" (they had matching tattoo's) beat the living shit out of some drunk guy who couldn't even stand up on his own when he fucking got there, it was horrible.
No one did anything (incl. me). So,buddy is laying on the floor of the cell,bleeding out every orfice im sure and this cop walks by the cell and says"whats happened to him?"

Ofcourse NO ONE says anything cause the guys who did it are right there, They have cameras in the cells!!!, they know what happened cause i bet ya those fuckers watched it happen...The paramedics got there in like 10-12 mins after he was "found" unconcious and bleeding in the cell.

All that time no authority figure entered the cell to help him or anything.
I have no idea if this guy even lived, or what happened to him after he was taken away from the cell.

Here is the kicker, the 3 guys who beat this fellow got released at like 3-4 am. I was locked up till 10am the next morning.

I am told i was picked for being "disorderly",which is probably true. However, i didnt beat anyone sensless...

Anyone know this person?

I'm going to send your email to a friend who was jumped not too long ago. She moved to moncton today so she might not be able to give you a story for a day or two, but I'm sure that she can give something.

I had a gun pulled on myself and two of my friends last year on the commons. It was a stressful night but no-one was harmed. I did whatever I could to defuse the situtation, and basically calmly talked my way out of things. It was pretty stupid.

And two people I know have been assaulted recently. One was chased by two men all they way to spring garden, the other was beaten senseless with 2x4's.

Between that and what happened to Devlin the guitar player downtown, I can't believe the increase in these sorts of crimes.

I was involved in two incidents of what Tobias is talking about, do you still need people to send you emails?

Does it matter at what time it happened? I guess being out on the commons in the early AM alone was pretty stupid, on my part.

I been jumped too many times to count. WHO THE FUCK HASNT BEEN ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS? Lastnight included:
http://www.maritimemetal.net/messageboa ... 4007#14007
Gotta knife pulled on me about 8 months ago or something too.
I remain unfettered but these fucks get away with bloody murder. People getting lynched by these fucks constantly. How about increasing rent in the area and forcing them out permanently, out of the city. Or should the public take up arms and start performing random attacks against them?
Fuck. Who's gonna be the next Darren Watts?!

I'm in. Can we wear costumes?

I've heard the Birthday Party used to go out in drag with bricks in their purses. I'm not suggesting we go out in drag. I was thinking more of a Punisher look. With a bag of doorknobs.

One night about six months ago I was coming back from a friend's place at 4am and came upon a swarming in process. They took off when they saw me and I walked the guy back to my place and called him a cab. He didn't know what they wanted from him. His hand looked like a blown up surgical glove.

Yeah, but I'm thinking something kinda preppy looking, we want to draw them in, not scare them off.

Hard to carry around. I think you'll find that a pool ball in a sock is a more lightweight and effective weapon.

I just don't get why this happens. Since the cops point blank refuse to do their jobs though, I'd be more than happy to beat some fear into these little fucks.

After the one world show last night I overheard some little 14 year old kids talking about how they were going to try and steal an I-pod.

I could've taken like 3 of them.
