Party Bus Operator Words of Wisdom

Maybe this guy ought to be running the city: because his talents are obviously being wasted:

• The owner of one party bus company in Chicago says a shooting that occurred over the weekend is a symptom of a much larger problem.
  
  Chris Vechio is the owner of Chi Town Party Bus in Chicago.

Lay it on us Chris!

• While his company did not own the party bus where the shooting took place, he says the shooting is a sad fact of life in Chicago, where there were dozens of shootings this weekend.

Really? The media just finds a guy, who owns a few of these rolling mayhem factories, and now he's the Philosopher King of the Party Bus Scene? Well that is some in-depth journalism right there.

• Vechio says his company spells out the rules for riders and the driver has the authority to call 9-1-1, or kick unruly passengers off the bus.
  
  “There’s nothing wrong with having a good time, but when it gets out of hand, our thing is the safety of the passengers, but also the safety of our driver and other people outside the vehicle,” he says.

So your drivers are all armed? And sealed in bullet-proof compartments? And there's security on the bus? And you have metal detectors and x-ray machines at the passenger loading area? And you frisk everyone for guns, knives, weapons, alcohol, drugs?

None of that, eh?

Let's not kid each other there Chris - you supply a mobile party room. Drugs, alcohol, strippers, whores - anything goes. And it goes to anyone with the cash up front, willing to pay whatever outrageous fee you charge, to have a bus with tinted windows roll around without anyone being the wiser to what's going on inside - until someone gets beaten, stabbed, raped, overdosed or shot. Then it's suddenly the "symptom of a much larger problem" and not you making a few bucks catering directly to the problem.

You know why some politicians prefer "vice districts?" Because it's in a building that you can watch, inspect and tax. We have a feeling that's the exact opposite to why certain people / folks / Outfit-types prefer the buses.
