FunGuyz raided a third time
The FunGuys mushroom boutique was raided for a third time Thursday, since it’s because of shrooms that so many people are drug addicts and derelicts.

Reminds me of how people sometimes forget to step sideways when someone is coming right at you. Oh, the light is shining in from the street, I can’t sleep with all these light. Buy a damn curtain. Same here. The police just have this one shop in their sights and can’t see anything else. I wonder what they will do when we actually open up heroin dispensaries to actually start to tackle the problem, properly.

>The police just have this one shop in their sights…
Why do you say that? They make other drug busts. Are there other stores blatantly selling illegal drugs like that? I’m all for shrooms being legalized, but they aren’t. Blame the parliament. Until then, the police enforce our democratically enacted laws.

They can enforce or they can choose to tolerate. Nothing obliges them to go in there full force.

Waste of our tax dollars. How about putting that money and the staff towards the extortion rackets and restaurant burnings? Oh right, they are getting their cut from that too.

Apparently car thefts are now so bad in the city that tourists are now worried about bringing certain cars to the city. And well, bicycle thefts are so rampant, it’s a wonder they are there when you get back. (You can tile or airtag a car or bike)

Kate: “full force”? The article doesn’t say anything about weapons drawn, or in fact any use of force whatsoever.
Yes, police have the power of discretion, but this is the only such store. If they let it slide, others will see it as a signal that they too could open and be tolerated. That’s a decision the parliament should make, not the police.

Eight arrests. That wasn’t a party.

Unregulated drug distribution is susceptible to spiking with tranq and fentanyl, which is at the core of the accidental overdose epidemic.
