that is such a small bust. wtf is the point? Let them do a little drugs and party. I am familiar with Broken windows theory but this seems like over policing.

Half those young guys are probably also snatching whatever they can get their paws on (injuring lots of people) but let them have a bit of fun?

That's kind of judgemental considering what a trifling amount of party drugs were found. "ThOse pEoPle are sTeAliNg from 99 year old wOmEn so thEy can iNjEct tHe mAriJuAnaS.." :roll:

...High Class by adult continued education subject.
Good spotting, or poor by me. Both. You have to earn that handle. Name my kids Genius and Billionaire. Better still, Trillionaire - for a girl - to allow for inflation.
Maybe they gave a bit too much away in the name; red-flag wording.

Is the Billionaire club in PP still a thing or did I dream that?

Bought some Billionaire Boys Club (Farrell Williams, 54 looks 34) stuff years ago. Technically after I bought it I was a lot poorer than before. Fake advertising.
