you dont need 5 police cars to tell kids to leave a parking lot… or 3 or whatever… i got into an accident on central ave 2 years ago and waited 1 1/2 hours for one to show up… i just think that if they have nothing to do they tell us they have a document stating we have to leave… its just bullshit when all we do is sit there… its not like we’re taking up parking spots for potential customers… its f***ing 11 at night… we sit talk and dont do anything. but what can we do besides nothing.
I’m not defending CPD, but cmon, dont you think it gets irritating having to go there all the time and say the SAME things over and over again? It’s their job. People own that property. If people came on your front yard and threw shit everywhere and did burnouts and disturbed your neighbors wouldn’t you be pissed off and call the PD? They have been very lienient IMO on all this.
haha yeah colonie are usually hard on you when you get pulled over…luckily i only got a warning from them when i got pulled over in colonie :banana
I’m actually with CPD on this one.
The officers were very polite and explanatory last night as well.
Albany PD however were complete dicks last week at DD and escorted us (the bikers) pretty much out of the county.
i didnt say they were being dickheads… its just old…
well i mean, look what they have to deal with all the time in albany :haha but yeah i hate when they follow you after they kick you out, but it makes sense…right? lol :lol
:idiots
actually u couldnt be more wrong, they are doing their job. i think they are very fair with us, the fact of the matter is, we are loitering which is a tickitable offense, and almost everyone at the lot has something illegal on their car. and for the most part they leave us alone.
:nod yes!
I was going to type something very similar, but I’m tired of repeating myself and just posted the idiot smiley
this entire thread is making baby jesus cry… i dont know if anyone has noticed but for the most part the people who want a “secondary lot” havent been around all that long in this car scene gig. once you find something that works, and you have PERMISSION from the cops… YOU FUCKING STAY THERE!!! anyone else notice the other night at P&R when the kid blew the donut that AS SOON AS I YELLED he stopped and drove out slow? i proved to the cop we were being responsible with the trash bag, we picked up all our shit, and we all left the lot in a respectful manner… theres nothing more that can be asked of us and we got the A-OK.
those of you who are complaining park and ride is too far might want to consider a new hobby because last time i checked we were all car enthusiasts. cars were meant to DRIVE anyways, not sit in a lot all pretty to look at. take the extra 5 minute drive, rid yourselves from the jackasses on central and enjoy yourself. i think we proved wednesday night that park and ride is just as much a viable option as anywhere else.
the trashbag is a good idea. i think we need to set one on the ground in the middle, or maybe two for people to use. i bet that will drastically reduce the amount of stuff layin on the ground after we leave.
well it doesnt matter where you go… you say the park and ride… i say once they find out they can’t stay at wendy’s one of um will find out about this park and ride and then… it needs to end somewhere… so if i’m so wrong and i haven’t been in the scene long enough… 7 years must not be long… and i must not know what i’m talking about cause i’m 22 years old… but i know enough that police are picked on little boys who get cocky when handed a gun. its a power trip. doing their job is to protect and serve. but why is it when you drive a 66 camaro with a 502 big block and exhaust that shakes the ground there isn’t anything said. everything done is byass… basically we dont like your crowd so we are gonna crack down. i guarantee that when it warms up and all the domestics come out and they are at mcdonalds nothing will be said. so for all you telling me they are just doing their job stop making excuses for them. i used to work at a gas station where colonie pd would come in drink coffee and talk about “i pulled this girl over and her exhaust was broken… but i didnt write the ticket cause i could see up her skirt”… say what you all want but i’ve had nothing but bad experiances with them.
well apparently mcdonalds said that the muscle car guys could be there
yes true, paul that means we can hangout there :ponder
yeah im pretty sure thats only on wednesdays though, i show up at that and theres a raffle. you get a free soda if you bring a car, its nice because its real calm but they dont stay out long after 9 usually
its a club called leadfoot lucys
I’m aware they all have shirts ect. its a nice g2g you can tell its all older guys because most of them just park their cars and sit in lawn chairs :haha definitly some real nice cars there, my father usually goes with his corvette
the rules an limitations on those older cars are nothing compared to our more modern cars. Comparing them is an uber fail.
the domestics had permission from the owner of McDs to be there, sooo…
they have been at McDs for many many years, but they did get kicked out last year for the first time EVER… cause of the asshole kids that show up. I don’t know if they are allowed back or not (I haven’t been down that way at night this year yet). They don’t take too kindly to the younger crowd coming through and I don’t blame them.
can we combine our gatherings with the guys from ca-va?
in order for us all to hang out we have to have permission… cause of all the laws and bylaws… or everytime we go to hang out some one has to buy something basically… whatever happened to like crossgates commons… their lots are huge and kinda near central. i wonder if before we all show up there is someone spoke to someone and we got the ok to hang out there
