Law and Order - are you in or are you out?

The primary element of the Outlaw Motorcycle Gang is the concept of being an outlaw. At times this concept has been romanticized. Robin Hood was an outlaw but the people liked him. He did good. In the Hip Hop community everyone wants to be a G. Not like weird Hal of course but you get the picture.

When I was a kid being a Nark was the lowest form of life. Here's a guy that would pretend to be your friend, smoke your drugs, then bust you for it. Law enforcement was one thing but pretending to be your friend then busting you had when I was a kid a bad reputation. It was not something to be admired. Nevertheless, moder science has discovered a new low life form - Sonny Barger's pal Otis Garret the Missing Link.

I was confused with the recent documentary about the Federal infiltration in the Mongols. They claimed the Federal Agent couldn't do the drugs or else their testimony in court would have been compromised. I think under cover agents here are different.

Nevertheless, I will concede that since the Motorcycle gangs have transgressed the code so much and deviated so far from the dream, public opinion towards under cover agents is changing. Yet it's not something I would do. Declaring war and going to battle is one thing but pretending to be someone's friend then busting them isn't my thing.

The East Van informant was a different story. Here's a guy who was a bouncer and used to sell drugs for the Hells Angels. He got ripped off and needed some time but the Hells Angels didn't give him any and had him beaten up. He was somewhat pissed about the way he had been treated and ratted them out. That's kind of a natural consequence of mistreating your own people. We see a lot more of that now a days.

In Australia a high ranking Hells Angel and a group of men were accused of gang raping and torturing a woman for several days in Melbourne. They were accused of cutting her toes with a grinder and stopping the bleeding with a blow torch. She claims they told her if she was good they would give her a bullet in the head but if she was bad they would grind her up and feed her to the pigs. One of the men in the group thought this was off the wall and helped her escape.

The man that helped her escape was not a nark nor did he betray his crew. He was the real man that risked his life to do the honourable thing. Something that motley crew knew nothing about. The term 1%er was supposed to mean cream of the crop not the bottom of the barrel.

Now a days we see more informants rise who turn in the Hells Angels or their coaccused. Some are very well paid. Some, like Dennis K did it for a plea bargain. Personally I don't see any honour in that. The honour rises when individuals stand up in defence of real biker values and kick these deviants' ass. Real bikers don't hide and cover up that kind of depravity. Only bullies do.

Take Piggy Palace for example. Robert Picton was asked in court if the Hells Angels were involved in any of the murders on the pig farm and he said no. Why on earth would they ask him that? Why did they deny being at the nightclub on the Farm, Piggy Palace when they were there all the time? Why did they associate with Dave Picton, Roberts younger brother who ran the farm, knowing he was a convicted sexual offender?

I am told statements like "Oh the Hells Angels would never associate with the likes of Robert Picton." but that simply is not true. I'm tired of the lies. Good people with wonderful young children profiting from the sale of hard drugs that promote the dishonest propaganda campaign hiding how far the Hells Angels have really fallen.

The only haunting image that remains in my mind is seeing that crack dealer in Surrey central try and turn some kid who bought crack's girlfriend into a crack ho. She looked like she was 14. There is no honour in that and profiting from that is shameful. Something has to be done. Call Crimestoppers and rat out the real rats.
