Long Nights At Long Wharf

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
The noise control ordinance. As far as the Long Dwarf quandary,
this is actually something the project's been covering for years.
It was described to me at one point here on
the show by both someone participating it. Participating in it, yeah,
open about it. Someone who comfortably feels like, we got

(00:20):
run out of every place where we race, so we
gotta do what we gotta do. And he owns it.
They just take over Long Arf every Saturday night goes
to like three in the morning. I heard not only
from him, but also from a cop and he said,
how I'm there, Like we're there, but all we can
do is sit and watch. Yeah, remember that vividly. Well,

(00:43):
the volume on your ten thousand dollars car attached speaker
systems may be lowered Soon's that's the proud declaration a
New Haven Independent dot org article. And you got to
see the pick like it's insane to me, man, these
people are parking vehicles and putting looks like a kid

(01:06):
in play movie. Is that a data reverence? You gotta
see what's putting out being put on the top of
the car or in the trunks that are getting popped.
Police can't chase, they can approach, I'm sure, but when
they approach and try to confiscate, they're gonna get wise
ass who document them and are flip with them and
foul mouth to them. I watch the clips all the time.

(01:27):
It's a no win situation. But what really gets me
is so much of our woes these days are out
of state. Our street takeovers. Half the time it's oh, yeah,
there's a group of guys. They were from Massachusetts. I
think it's the we really got to start eyeing that
out of state plate. The penalty should be more significant.

(01:47):
If you're out of state, you're breaking the law in Connecticut.
That's one thing. You're breaking the law in Connecticut and
not from Connecticut. That's where I would go. I don't
understand how this long warf thing. How there's just not
a row of police cars, probably because they don't have one. Uh,
they're still completely understaffed. Who create a formation before the

(02:09):
crowd even gathers. It's maddening these people. I feel for
these people. This guy sent to me from a guy
I grew up with who lives on East Shore, has
his whole life that he's dealing with this, contending with this,
frustrated by this they own it right here. They say
they're using speaker systems that cost ten grand, ten grand,

(02:32):
and you're charging them a thousand dollars in You're fine.
The guys gonna have it. Guys are gonna be like
a thousand, can you break. He's gonna hold the cash
right there.
