Police raids barbecue party in UK

[easyand]

Facebook police raided my family barbecue
Thursday, July 16, 2009

Riot police stormed a 30th birthday party for just 15 people and shut it down, thinking it was a rave because it was advertised on Facebook.
Four police cars, a riot van and a helicopter were involved in the swoop on Andrew Poole's gathering for his family and friends.

He was just about to light the barbecue and had not even turned on the music when the gazebo suddenly started flapping wildly and the sound of chopper blades filled the air.

Eight officers wearing camouflage trousers and body armour jumped out and demanded that the 'rave' to be shut down.

Mr Poole said: 'We were nowhere near anyone. We weren't even playing any music. What effectively the police did was come in and stop 15 people eating burgers.'

The party was organised using the create an event facility on Facebook.

Mr Poole, a coach driver, said he invited 17 family and friends and two had not even arrived by the time the helicopter was whirring overhead.

Mr Poole said: 'All of a sudden there was this noise in the sky. The thing then hovered over us for about 25 minutes, watching 15 people eat. They told us to take down the sound system and said everybody's got to leave.

'It was 4pm and we hadn't even plugged the music in yet. We tried to reason with them but they were having none of it.'

Mr Poole said he spent £800 on food and a generator.

Yesterday, police insisted they were right to end the party. 'We were extremely concerned how the event had been advertised on the internet as an all-night party,' a spokesman said.

Fair play to the cops, these events advertised on face-book always get out of hand.

And its not the way you invite 17 people to attend a BBQ.

[Arfah]

Still heavy handed by the police though C.R.

How much has that raid cost the taxpayer ?

It may not be as innocent as the organiser makes it sound ???

Good training for the Police, O T J so to speak.:)

[Eagle The Lightning]

It's still over the top, the fun police turned up and ruined the day

[Elbs]

What exactly were the police expecting again? A rave? I'm assuming they thought there'd be drugs and chavs?

Apparently, there was chocolate cake on the menu and some fat chav bird felt a bit guilty after shoving it down her throat in one. Hence the response.

[Soldat_Américain]

They went for the free barbecue...that's if it was real "barbecue."

p-)You sure it was just choclolate cake she was shoving down her throat :)

[Arfah]

A 'real' British BBQ involves Beer x Lots, raw meat burned to a cinder on the outside, at least two couples having a 'heated domestic' and rain. Lots and lots of rain.

The perfect end to the day.

[joedamage]

Well, 25 minutes of a helicopter + 30 minutes to fly to and from base, that in itself is a couple of hundred pounds at least!

This reminds me of the apartheid days in South Africa, where any gathering of more than 3 people could be deemed illegal and broken up by the police... way to go UK!

[Arfah]

You sure it was just choclolate cake she was shoving down her throat :)

I wasn't there, I just heard (made it up). Your version sounds better though. She may also have been playing 'hide and seek' with her brother and 13 yr old daughter...?

[Elbs]

bbq and beer. feels good man

[juliannicholas]

How do we know that wasn't an Al Qaeda barbi?

[Arfah]

[gaz]

How the hell did they find out about it though? I have my doubts the police are monitoring facebook for people's parties so presumably someone complained?

[Eagle The Lightning]

How do we know that wasn't an Al Qaeda barbi?Apparently they had enough beer to sink a ship p-) they could be Al Qaeda

[Elbs]

Someone wanted to throw a competing bbq...tipped off coppers. Party foul to the max

17 people is a small BBQ .....
the police in this case were silly and they should be out catching the real criminals instead of trying to look like they are doing stuff.

How old are you, 10? p-)

Its far better for them to react early than wait for the situation to develop into a freeforall,

has as happened with past Facebook party invites.

Are we sure that donuts were not listed in the advertised menu?p-)

no im 17
so do you believe that all partys over say 11 people should be stopped incase "a situation develops"??

Only one's posted on Facebook and the likes (normally by imature young kids.)

In this case the Dad was probably going to sell the booze to his "uninvited" guests to make a quick buck.

That is not true, i have been to many parties organised on facebook and the reason it is done on facebook because it is simply easier and cheaper. All these parties have been relaxed and there has been no trouble at them, sure it happens but it is bound to happen if parties are advertised on facebook or not.

Also about the selling, i would like to know
A) if anyone else has heard of this happening, because i sure havent.
B) where is your evidence for this??

[knowitall]

"Mr Poole said he spent £800 on food and a generator."

thats a bit odd to say the least, whats would he be using the genny for?

a possible clue towards the size of the sound system

having said that they could just have sent the local coppers round for a quiet chat before it all started

So you are a 17 year old expert on facebook parties :roll:

A) you, contrary to what you believe are not the world.:roll:

B) past reported history with regards "Parties" that started out as " I was just having a quiet get together with a few friends when it got out of hand with a lot of people who gate.crashed the event and trashed my house, officer" usually followed by "When parents get home they are going to kill me, Boo Hoo!"

[a_very_ex_STAB]

How dare they have BBQs.

It is actually very brave to have a BBQ in the UK - it is an open invitation to the rain gods :)

i did not say i was a expert however i have been to many and know people whohave had them and all have been fine

and i did not say "i was the world" please if you cant have a mature debate please dont...

and like i said, sure these happen but what gate crashers are more likley to do is to go out and listen to music... know there is a party then go there. (i know this because i know of people who have done it and this is how they do it)

[CMNot]

Typical filth.

BA has a laughable lift capability in a war zone, yet rozzers can park a chopper over a back garden for 45 minutes.

What exactly were they expecting from a 30th birthday party? More bellies and sandals than *** and violence.

Exactly, but that would be policing the community, not Labour lap dogs. Apparently thats why we're pissing away lives and money in Afghanistan, defending freedom :roll:

But it isn't even the point. You cannot send the anti-riot police just because you advertise a "wild party". You are suppose to send those guys when the party is out of control and the party guys attacked the normal cops. Every reasonable police would send in first a inspecting patrol to see is everything is in order, then act upon the first complain from neighbors.

I think someone in the police department had a turn that evening and his girlfriend was attending to the party.

[Laconian]

On the face of it, this seems like an over-reaction to a non-incident. If some intell guy that is tracking wild rave party adverts on Facebook, saw this, why not just call the local precinct and tell them to keep an eye out, wait for a legit complaint and then shut the thing down.

Somebody somewhere, knew about this so far in advance, they could plan an op w/air assets and muster the riot squad before the thing even kicked off, before they even had a complaint. I don't mind bud-nipping problems, but shouldn't there be a problem, first?

[Panchito12]

Hold it! They were not BBQing, they were grilling!! Brits don't know how to BBQ. Only Southerners, and a few token Texans, know how to BBQ

[AmandlaEwetu]

Everytime I have a bbq it rains:roll:

[11 Bravo]

You guys are missing focus here... it's all about knife crime !. There was a box of knives , no doubt those wicked plastic sneak through a metal detector type there and the authorities simply needed to control the situation so those knives and the one or two spatulas did not end up in the wrong violent hands. Jeez even I saw this copper strategy.

[Panchito12]

Everytime I have a bbq it rains:roll:

Close the grill cover, open an umbrella, keep drinkin beer. What seems to be the problem??

You need to pop over to lil ol' Britain and see for yourself :)

Soggy burnt sausage anyone ?

[Deathchant]

My mates had an "illegal rave" shut down by the police a few years back. In reality there was about 15 of them going camping in the woods. It was a big spread in the local paper and made out to be the raid of the year. When we decided to actualy have an illegal rave there was no sign of police for miles and miles and the party went on for days. After that I lost all faith in the police force. Still was a dam good party.

[Dinges]

Everytime I have a bbq it rains:roll:

Because you call it a bbq. It won't work. Call it a braai and and use T-bones and wors. Beef patties is a sin on a griddle.p-)

I don't know about England, but in France they don't have proper Charcoal.

What do you have instead?

Sounds like a british barbecue is a titanic struggle against the futility of existence....

[Soldat_Américain]

Well over here in France they have Charbon...and I have a really hard time convincing my self that they're actually using coal, however it would make sense as it takes forever to get the grill hot enough to cook. Or maybe they're trying to imitate...coal, I never ask as whenever my company or section grills it's good eatin'.

However it would become much more efficient if they had stuff like this:

[Deathchant]

We have proper charcoal in England because as im sure you are aware now we have a small window to start a barbie because of the rain. Ha ha. I always take my waterproofs just in case and they have been worn many a time. My mat has a birthday bbq every year and the last two of them it has rained. His neighbours must think were mental dancing in the rain all day but I think their just lightweights. You cant beet a good stomp in the pissing rain. Although I have made myself ill on pleanty an ocasion doing so.

Britain is really more of a stay inside the pub and drink kind of country really (for obvious climatic reasons) :-)

Ok, our so called Summer (monsoon really) isn't really bbq capable either but at least sofar no riot police or police helicopters, even if they're based just around the corner from me. :)

Agree, strange waste of manpower and odd over reaction. Unless they were cooking meth in the backyard. Kudos for the Barney Fife referrence. :)

[Panchito12]

I just went for lunch to a nearby Supermarket parking lot where an old black gentleman, known as Mr. P., has two beat-up vans and a used school bus that he has turned into a BBQ stand.

Got me some Pork Ribs, Collard Greens, & BBQ Beans. Chased that baby down with huge glass of Southern-style sweet ice tea.

YUM! YUM!

Total cost: $9.95 plx tx.

Can't get that luvin food in UK!!

YEAH, BABY!!!! woot

[Hollos]

Well crime is officially down in the UK now (see other thread) ;-) so the filth have to find something to do!
Great so more rozzers will be out with the trusty government cash machine the speed gun no sorry the community road safety camera or patroling the town centers at night doing the 80 pound fines for being pissed/or having a piss :)

[SoSo]

This is just more antidrug police state fascism. Unless some of the neighbors complain about the noise or whatever, the cops have no just cause to raid the place. Incidents like this are steadily alienating more and more people, turning those who are otherwise conservative, law-abiding, and peaceful, well-disposed towards law enforcement, into people who view the police with hostility and suspicion. The job of the police is going to get a lot harder when distrust and disinclination to cooperate, which is already common in minority communities, begins to spread through the rest of the population. Law enforcement needs the support and goodwill of the communities they serve in order to effectively function, and some police, I'm afraid, are beginning to forget this.

Kind of sucks for the guy who planned it though. Oh well. Live and learn I suppose.

[JCR]

I still don't understand why this required a helicopter and cops in riot gear, even if it had turned out to be a sponateous party of 200 people.

I mean ok, drunken brits are not nice but brits should be able to cope with their drunken countrymen better than germans.
Even though I must admit I never saw any really bad riot during the 2006 championship.
Mostly flashing (why do anglo-americans always have the urge to strip when drunk?), singing and jumping from bridges (with or without a river beneath it) but hardly any serious fighting.

[timetraveller]

And all he got for compensation was 200 covering the costs of the food ...

Civil lawsuits to follow where the Barbecue organisers are claiming mental stress etc etc etc

[Red_Fern]

why do anglo-americans always have the urge to strip when drunk?

It's just what we do. As long as it's the nice-looking ladies, I don't mind at all. rofl

Mental stress?!? Over a police raid? That's a bit over the top. Amazing what extremes some people will go to for money.

America is the best Country by far when it comes to people take other people companies to court

like the dizzy woman that sued a Burger chain company because the coffee was HOT and it burnt her ..

Yes we are, I won't deny that... I hear about it in the news all the time, a new lawsuit against another company for something.

The woman sued McDonalds over the coffee. I think she's a stupid cnut. Any idiot knows fresh coffee's going to be hot. But no, some dummy has to go and sue because there's nothing specific stating that it is.

Common sense has totally gone out the window these days. :cantbeli:

Great posts (again), Connaught. Because some guy invited his friends to a BBQ on Facebook, it is safe to assume that he is a criminal who is probably going to sell alcohol to minors and possibly blow up a school or two. Arrest that scumbag.

I agree. It sounds like something you'd read out of Soviet Russia. 17 people at a BBQ... in their 30's... rofl.

[TheEvian100]

This was my improvisation when I visited the UK 3 years ago. Stick the packaging of the one-use bbq with blue tag on the corner of the birck wall (make sure it's high enough). And voila, non-soggy New Zealand lamb steaks.

Well, looks to me like Britain is a bit overly sensitive...they must be expecting some awful sort of trouble if they don't strictly control their people.

That's a sign of a very insecure government.As yet the full facts are not yet available but the we had a BBQ advertised online round our way that brought traffic to a standstill and one birthday party that turned out to be a rave complete with security and mobile toilets. A slight overreaction maybe but imagine if both kicked off next door.

Bloody oath, we had a BBQ in our shearing shed. There was at least 100 people there. I suppose the difference was that ours was't in a built up area. It went on until about three in the morning. There was not one incident, other than a couple of people flaking it out in the open.

[Bushranger]

Ha thats a classic, we used to have crazy parties in London with atleast 100 or more messed up backpackers & the cops always came around but we were never shut down, poor bugger.

[Sarig]

Facebook invites for small get-together is practically the norm for people in their 30's and younger here now, I've been to quite a few birthday parties, BBQ's and the like organised through facebook, never had any problems with it. It's a communications channel like any other, and has to be used with a bit of care, if you put stuff on open invitations and tell everyone to bring their friends, obviously it'll get out of hand, so just don't do that.

Saying the guy was at fault for using modern technology is just rubbish.

[Blackcatnursery]

A complete waste of money and over the top reaction by the state police, because this is what they have become. They should concentrate on catching real criminals and not criminalising ordinary citizens.
We had a break in on the nursery a while ago and it took them 7 weeks to turn up. I bet they would have been a bit quicker if I had shot a couple of them.
The Police and this Government seem hell bent on criminalising the whole of the population.
I guess I would be a bit happier today if there had not been a police helicopter over our house last night for about 1/2 an hour flashing its torch into the countryside, I thought they had thermal imaging.

[Eztyga]

^ Just flash up the barbie next time they break in. ;)

Not really

That movie depicts an extreme right wing islamophobic regime that has ethnically cleansed the UK IIRC - not a very likely scenario outside the wet dreams of fruitloop neocon/zionist fanboyz:roll:

Isn't there some general pattern, garden gnomes, bbq-s, black ballons and the like.

What?!!!!!!! Of course we still have raves. Why would we not? You have to be real sneeky these days but you can still get away with it. Thats like saying does America still fat people and burgers? I think everyone should go to a decent rave at least twice in their life. Its good to dance it keeps you fit.
