Castroween 2007 needs more lights, more dance music
... learning from 2006; planning for Castroween 2007....
Does Castroween need improvement?
Yes.
Is the answer what we tried in 2006 --
more cops, less entertainment, and
trying to close early?
Apparently not.
Bringing in 800 cops must have cost a huge amount
in overtime pay,
yet they couldn't even catch the man
who publicly shot several people.
That money could have been better spent on LIGHTS and
webcams,
to make costumes (and thugs) more visible.
And on DANCE MUSIC,
to provide a healthy outlet for
youthful energy.
Good news:
We WILL have an extra hour of
sunlight on 31 Octover 2007, and in following years
-- because the Daylight Savings Time season is being
lengthened.
-- TBL

Castroween 2006:
"... Some 800 cops were on hand,
and yet someone managed to bring in a gun,
shoot nine perople
--- and get away .... "

Bevan Dufty must have been stoned when he decided to try and close it early.
Oh by the way guns have been a part of California culture since its inception. Maybe we should be teaching those kids how to aim......?
