When you look at the videos of Trump and Tulsi Gabbard denouncing regime change wars and the never ending wars in the Middle East we can see how they both have completely betrayed their election promises. Donald Trump has quite literally gone from freedom fighter to crazed super villain.
Now ruthless bombing of civilians in Iran is sheer evil. Trump has adopted the Netanyahu double tap in Iran where they bomb civilians, wait for first responders to arrive, then bomb them again to kill the first responders. People call that a war crime.
No doubt it is but everyone can see how morally wrong it is. These aren't the good guys doing this. These are malicious acts of terrorism on a massive scale. A mass shooter commits mass murder in a school while Donald Trump bombs the whole school. I often quote the title page of Zen and the Art of Motorcycle maintenance which reads:
"And what is good Phaedrus and what is not good. Need we ask anyone to tell us these things?" It's actually a famous rhetorical question posed by Socrates in Plato's Phaedrus dialogue Robert Pirsig used as a ruler for his book.
It is my conclusion for life. I don't need anyone to tell me what Donald Trump is doing in Iran is wrong. I can see it. Everyone can. Simon Tisdall's recent editorial in the Guardian is well said. Finally someone has the courage to say the Emperor is wearing no cloths and that Donald Trump is a raging lunatic.
Mark Carney and Pierre Poilievre are both moral weasels with their own agendas. Poilievre said "Free nations must unite for a free Iran." Go f*ck yourself you lying POS.
The MEK are a murderous cult. Murdering civilians and first responders is not fighting for freedom. Mark Carney is pushing the WEF's Agenda and the UN's New World Order while Pierre Poilievre is a Stephen Harper Neo Con desperately promoting obscene lies in the name of the greater good. Pierre Poilievre is no better than Donald Trump. He is a Neo Con plant.
Mark Carney is just as dangerous. He is hell bent on destroying this country from within. What we need to do now is take heed of Winston Churchill's warning about Poland and see how that directly applies to the UN and the WEF but before we do, let's pause and call out this great evil war for what it is. One big fat lie among many other big fat lies.

The US is doing double tap attacks in Teran just like Israel in Gaza. (16.09) That's when they bomb an area, wait for first responders to arrive, then bomb it again to murder the first responders. Netanyahu repeatedly did that in Gaza.
The Guardian is reporting that "Nine days in, the conduct of the unjustified, illegal US-Israel war against Iran grows ever-more disproportionate, dishonourable and deranged."
"The torpedoing of an Iranian navy ship off Sri Lanka by a US submarine demonstrated that for reckless Donald Trump, the whole world is his battlefield."
"Diplomacy, treacherously sabotaged by Washington, has been replaced by unceasing airstrikes that are murdering and maiming hundreds of Iranian civilians. Trump’s White House increasingly resembles a madhouse. War aims shift daily. A clueless, rambling president insists he must help pick Iran’s next ayatollah. Meanwhile, his 'secretary for war', Pete Hegseth, rants manically about killing without mercy."
"Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, already charged with war crimes in Gaza, and Trump must now face prosecution by the international criminal court for atrocities perpetrated in Iran, notably the appalling 28 February bombing of a school in Minab. They should both be sanctioned by the UK and all other governments that still respect the UN charter, human rights and the rule of law. And their countries should be sanctioned, too."
"It’s long been obvious Trump is no friend to Britain. But this latest act of lethal hubris, of which the UK received no advance warning, shows he and his administration must now be considered an enemy. Just look at the facts. The US (like Russia in Ukraine) has launched an illegal war of aggression against a sovereign state. Its claim of an 'imminent' threat is unsupported by evidence. Its armed forces are unrestrained, lacking any rules of engagement."
"This US-led rampage, this homicidal turkey shoot, is terrorising and displacing millions while disrupting trade, travel and energy supplies. It’s not in Britain’s national interest that Iran be reduced to smoking ruins."
"The greater the country’s impoverishment, the worse the social strains, the tighter the grip of repressive, misogynistic hardline clerical and military factions. Partly at least, today’s Iran is of the US’s making. Iran desperately needs a fresh start."
"It’s argued that Britain is so closely enmeshed with the US in matters of defence, security and intelligence-gathering that it cannot afford a definitive break over Iran. This is a counsel of despair. For most of its long history, Britain has somehow got by without always highly conditional American help. It could do so again."
"This is Trump’s war of choice. But Britain has choices, too. Two hundred and fifty years after the American colonists broke free of empire, it’s time for a British declaration of independence."
Although the UN will not save us from Trump or Netanyahu and the UN's climate Agenda is a sinister plot to bring back slavery, the rest of this article is very well said. Two wrongs don't make a right. They are simply both wrong. Don't fall for the UN's NWO.
Here we go again. MI 6 planting seeds of dissension to sabotage relations with China so they can promote the WEF's New World Order. Listen to the first line of this video. "This was supposed to herald a new era. A closer relationship between Britain and Beijing but weeks after Keir Starmer's controversial visit, China appears far closer than he would have hoped."
Don't you think the timing and wording of all this is the slightest bit suspicious? First of all, what's suspicious about a trade visit to China? After Trump launched a trade war with the world it's pretty much a natural consequence.
The BBC is reporting that "Labour MP Joani Reid has stepped down from the party after her husband was arrested on suspicion of spying for China."
In addition to that, the Guardian is reporting that "The husband of former Labour MP Gloria De Piero has confirmed his home was searched on Wednesday as part of a police investigation into an alleged Chinese spying ring."
GMAFB. Next they're going to leak screenshots from a movie claiming they were shaking hands with a high ranking Triad member tied to the Communist Party of China. Guess who else is tied to the Communist Party of China. Xi Jinping. You can't do business with China without working with someone who is a member of the CCP.
I'm not saying Xi Jinpin is flawless and that the concerns about the CCP aren't valid. I'm saying MI6 is a criminal organization setting politicians up with fake spy charges to sabotage Britain's financial independence from their reliance on Trumps WEF Neo Cons.
This brings us back to Bill Majcher and Cameron Ortis. That's where the movie screen shot reference comes from. Remember when CSIS Sam left the National Post because of all the defamation lawsuits after he falsely accused several Canadian politicians of foreign interference with China? Sam Copper admitted his sources were CSIS.
It was a defiant act of defamation. The picture was a screenshot from a movie Bill played an extra in while he was in Hong Kong. He wasn't shaking hands with a Triad member, he was shaking hands with a world famous actor who played in Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon and Pirates of the Caribbean at World's End.
When the truth was made public CSIS Sam posted a retraction but the truth was never supposed to come out. CSIS had hoped Majcher's defense would be hidden from the public under national security like Cameron Ortis' defense was.
Whoever gave Sam Cooper that picture knew it was a screen shot from a movie because they claimed it was taken in a casino at Macau, China when in reality it was filmed in Hong Kong. The name of the movie was From Vegas to Macau II.
The only way anyone who saw that picture would think it was taken in Macau was if they knew it was from the movie pretending to be in Macau. The name of the picture file was Majcher-handshake-macau. CSIS knew it was fake and gave it to their podcaster to defame their mark thinking Bill wouldn't be allowed to defend himself.
And what secrets? Any Chinese citizen and member of the CCP is free to visit England and Canada like anyone else. There are no secrets. Other than the fact that the Five Eyes are still involved with drug trafficking and fraud call centres scamming little old ladies of their life savings. They are complete sleazebags.
Update: I will add the only way this could possibly work is if the plaintiffs are the Outlaws. That would change everything and carry weight. I wouldn't support it but that would be significant.
The National Post is reporting that there's a fight for the Rock Machine patch in Canadian trademark court. "Brown, the trademark’s owner, is the mother of Shawn (Bad Dog) Brown, a veteran biker who was once national president of the Rock Machine long after the Quebec war ended."
An American group wants to come to Canada and start using the logo. Shawn Brown and his mother was hoping to prevent an American group taking over the Canadian logo.
Sadly to maintain the trademark you have to prove you're still using it and the court granted the American application. This isn't good for Canada.
If someone wants to start a new MC make your own logo. Don't steal one someone else used in the past. The real Rock Machine was disbanded in 2001 when the leaders patched over to Hells Angels after Mom Boucher went to prison.
The original logo was a a yellow eagle's head which represented gold. Shawn changed the logo to white and registered the trademark in 2010. He restarted the group. Then the group kicked him out because they wanted to be a gang not a motorcycle club. I like the new logo but Sean didn't create the original. That was a lie.
Global is reporting that "A Winnipeg man who fatally shot five people in a rooming house has been found guilty of five counts of second-degree murder."
"The Crown argued Jamie Felix was driven by paranoia after spending days drinking and smoking crack at the house.Court heard Felix’s father and brother were associated with a gang that operated the drug den in the rooming house, but that Felix had no gang ties himself."
So once again, harmful drugs are exactly that, harmful. Prevention means admitting that and discouraging people from using them. Kyle gave the gun to his brother Jamie.
Here's a blast from the past. My lawyer friend messaged me to see how I was doing. He said he was out for dinner with another lawyer who remembered the Ninja versus Pirates battle I had with him and asked me about an old blog post I made about him referring to him as a ninja.
I said that was on my old blog and found the post. He represented Telus while I was helping the Telus employees during their labour dispute. My satire about it was called Pirates versus Ninjas. We were pirates asserting our right to free speech and they were corporate assassins crushing free speech. We went out for dinner a few times during the struggle as part of our negotiations and became friends.
"As reported by the CBC, Brian Da Costa, an alleged drug trafficker accused of bribing Toronto police officers, has been given a list of people he is not allowed to contact as part of his bail conditions—and on that list is a co-accused of alleged drug lord Ryan Wedding, Gurpreet Singh."
This comes as no surprise since the FBI is taking known drug rings led by the Hells Angels and blaming Ryan Wedding for them to run interference for the Hells Angels.
So let's back it up and review what we know. Atna ‘Tupac’ Onha, the Hells Angels hitman involved with the hit in Colombia was a Hells Angels associate. The FBI are blaming Ryan Wedding for Hells Angels hits. The FBI informant wasn't hiding when he was partying in Medellin with cocaine and prostitutes.
We also know the FBI lied when they said the Dirty News blogger helped Ryan Wedding locate the informant partying in Medellin. According to the FBI's own evidence Ryan Wedding found the informant by tracking his phone.
We know that none of the statements the FBI claim the Dirty News blogger made about Ryan Wedding were posted on his Website or his X account. They were posted on fake accounts impersonating him not the two accounts he actually used.
We also know India's intelligence agency set up a fake social media account pretending to be the Dirty News blogger. They claimed he was a member of Sikhs for Justice and invited the Hells Angels and the UN to keep the peace at a Khalistan rally which made no sense whatsoever.
The Hells Angels and the UN are rivals. No one would invite them both to the same rally so they could keep the peace. The UN are basically inactive since all their leaders are either in jail or out of the country.
If someone was a member of Sikhs for Justice or supported the Khalistan rally like pretty much every Punjabi in Surrey, they wouldn't defame it by publicly linking it to organized crime. That's only something an agent of India would do.
More obviously, they intentionally altered the logo for the Khalistan referendum. Where it said in big letters Khalistan Referendum, they erased that and put Kill India in it's place. No member of Sikhs for Justice and no supporter of the Khalistan referendum would do that. That was obviously done by an agent of India hoping no one would notice. Well we did notice.
Then another agent of India used that same fake profile and added the ridiculous claim that the Dirty News blogger was tied to a shooting in Surrey which was a bold faced lie he simply made up and pulled out of his a*s. Kash Patel is a lying POS.
As Castanet pointed out, the Vancouver Sun previously reported that Gary Dhami's boss, Kulwant Bal was affiliated with the Wolf Pack and the Hells Angels meaning the Wolf Pack is part of the Hells Angels. These mules were caught because they were supplying Lloydminster, Alberta with cocaine. Jason Johnson sold an undercover officer 182 grams of cocaine.
Gary Dhami sold undercover officers a kilo of crystal meth and half a kilo of cocaine in Kelowna. Kulwant Singh Bal was caught under Project Deception along with Petar Hristov and Nikita Robertson from Edmonton.
Nikita Robertson was also caught in a Red Deer drug bust where 4 kilos of crystal meth were seized and half a kilo of fentanyl. Jaydon Harrison of Prince George was also involved with that bust. PG is also Red and White just like Edmonton.
The Independent is reporting that "US citizen mom-of-three sues Kristi Noem’s ICE after agents smashed her car window in viral Mother’s Day arrest."
"Kenia Guerrero was driving to church on Mother’s Day with her husband and their three young children when masked agents in unmarked cars surrounded them on the streets of a Boston suburb."
"In footage captured on bystander video, the officers smashed her car windows and dragged Daniel Flores Martinez from the passenger seat and slammed him on the ground while his wife and children screamed in terror."
"The incident, which unfolded within minutes, is now at the center of a federal lawsuit against Donald Trump’s administration and Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, who are accused of illegally deploying smash and grab tactics to target immigrants and their families, including Guerrero, who is a U.S. citizen." That is a defiant violation of the US Constitution.
"No state shall deny to any person within it's jurisdiction equal protection of the law." 14th Amendment
An anti-war ad from a decade ago is going viral. Because the same wars keep happening-for the same interests, at the same cost, with the same lies pic.twitter.com/4nB6ejA07m
WTF are you talking about? If there's a school shooting people are supposed to EVACUATE. This is a very bad precedent. That's like locking down in a fire. If the building's on fire you get out as fast as possible. It's the same with an active shooter.
John Carpay: Vancouver, British Columbia, now belongs to the Musqueam Indian Band pic.twitter.com/y9Z90AUi3v
— Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms (@JCCFCanada) March 5, 2026
CTV is reporitng that "Ottawa this week published details of an agreement recognizing the Musqueam First Nation’s Aboriginal title within much of Vancouver. The news prompted claims on social media that Canada had ceded Vancouver properties to the Musqueam, but experts in Indigenous rights law, as well as the federal minister responsible and the First Nation, say the agreement does not transfer private property."
However, I think CTV is misrepresenting the Truth. Mark Carney is just as much a raging lunatic as Donald Trump is.
The fake news claims these concerns are being misrepresented. That is a bold faced lie. What the hell do you think these statements mean and where and the hell do you think they lead? Let's start with the Cowichan claim and decision.
The Cowichan tribe claimed ownership of private land in Richmond. The Cowichan tribe is from Vancouver Island not from Richmond. Just because I went fishing somewhere doesn't mean I own that land.
Historically there was a large Scottish community and cannery in Steveson. That doesn't mean Scotland owns Steveson. At first lawyers for the Cowichan tribe said their application wasn't going to affect private land owners but that was the exact wording and intent of their application.
The lawyers misrepresented that claim by saying after the court granted them ownership of the private land, they would then seek financial compensation from the government. Lawyers promoting welfare fraud. This gives rise to three serious problems. The first concern is that it was another overlapping land claim just like the Musqueam agreement is.
This means a smaller tribe was claiming ownership of land that belonged to other larger tribes. When you consider all the land claims in BC, there are more land claims than there is land in BC. Meaning more than one tribe claim ownership of the same land. Meaning if all the land claims were successful all the existing residents and new immigrants would be forced to leave.
Logic declares not all the land claims are valid or legitimate. Every time an agreement is made, they come back wanting more. That is not acceptable.
This defiant brainwashing is a larger threat to Canadian sovereignty than Iran, China, Russia or Donald Trump. This is why One BC was created. To reaffirm that there is no privilege. There is no white privilege, no black privilege and no red privilege. All people are equal regardless of race colour or creed. Bringing back slavery is a bad idea. That is exactly what they are trying to do.
Only Congress can declare war. That's not my opinion. That's Article 1 of the Constitution. We forced the vote. The Senate said no. History will not be kind to a Congress that gave away its most solemn responsibility.https://t.co/T3rDI5UE5G
Israel ordered the evacuation of most of southern Beirut today. According to Grok the neighborhoods/districts told to evacuate have a population of between 500,000 and 750,000 people.
I was going to prepare a post about Satan's chess game leading to Armageddon but before I do let me just say Donald Trump is a lying POS. He is a horrible person and right now represents Satan because his self serving greed is fed with lies.
Trump has broken almost all of his election promises and that certainly isn't going by unnoticed. He has become a defiant Neo Con but his ego mania has him yearning to be an Emperor. Kind of like Xi Jinping.
This is why Americans pledge allegiance to the flag not a person and why civil servants swear an oath to the Constitution not a president. Politicians are lying self serving scumbags.
One thing we missed while Trump has been raging like a lunatic is a subtle advancement of Xi Yinping. The CBC mentioned the Chinese Communist Party's annual gathering. Well on that note, the Guardian is reporting that "More generals purged as delegates gather for China’s Two Sessions event."
"The standing committee of China’s top political advisory body has voted to remove three generals from its ranks as a sweeping purge of the military continues before this week’s annual Two Sessions gathering."
Evidently there are two gatherings and one of them has the power to amend the Constitution. This can be good. The new Constitution recognizes five official religions.
However, in 2018 the Constitution was amended to remove term limits for Presidents. Then in 2023 Xi Jinping was elected a third term. I was under the impression that he's become president for life. Removing so many generals means less votes against any of Xi Jinping's proposals which continues to solidify his power.
Then we have Putin raising a statue of Stalin in the Moscow train station. He has completely lost his mind. The Ukraine conflict was manufactured but he seized the opportunity to bring Stalin back. This is not good. It is insane.
So let's talk about how Satan's chess game is playing out as we head towards Armageddon. Remember Vincent Price's intro to Iron Maiden's 666 the number of the beast? "Woe to thee oh earth and sea. For the Devil sends the beast with wrath Because he knows the time is short."
We've seen the rise of the World Economic Forum. We've see the Covid lock downs and an unprecedented attack on Civil Liberty. We've seen ANTIFA and the far left creates chaos and absurdity. Communists and Anarchists have teamed up to create anarchy so the Communists can move in and create order amidst the chaos. Their order.
Then we see Neo Cons hijack the right and lead it to the exact same place. Using false flag attacks like 9/11 and October 7th to justify a very dark military agenda. The Patriot Act was anything but patriotic.
Biden's left brought in uncontrolled immigration. Then Trump brought in ICE to create a police state which was the original objective all along. So we see Satan inspires the far left and the far right to accomplish his objectives.
As Damion Marley said, we've got to fulfill the book. The Constitution will hang by a thread. Satan wants to destroy that sacred document because it prevents him from achieving his objective of universal slavery in the UN's New World Order.
A secret combination will rise to take over the US government as well as the Israeli government. Israel and the US have a divine destiny. Satan knows that so he infiltrates their politics to lead them astray. Revelations 11 describes the showdown.
A lot more has to happen first. Growing up I never understood why all the world would gather against Israel. Now I understand. Satan is using Netanyahu and people like Ben Shapiro to turn the world against Jews and Israel.
The Jews are God's covenanted people. Their forefathers swore an oath to serve God. Jesus was a Jew. Moses built the tabernacle in the wilderness and brought the Children of Israel into the bond of the covenant.
If you care to read the Old Testament you can see the blessing and cursing of obedience and disobedience to those covenants. Netanyahu quoted one of the promises of obedience. If Israel obeys the commandments to vex not the stranger that sojourneth with thee, God will bless those that help Israel and curse those that fight Israel.
That's obviously in righteousness. If Israel is righteous and obeys their covenants. Committing genocide is a defiant violation of that covenant. So is sexually assaulting prisoners.
The Old Testament is very clear that if Israel becomes wicked and breaks their covenant God will place all the cursings of their enemies upon Israel itself. It's pretty bold and extreme.
That's why Satanists like Netanyahu have nothing to do with Judaism. He's calling upon God to place all the curses on him instead of his enemies. However, this won't happen overnight. It will happen when he is ripe in iniquity.
Remember Zedekiah? Jeremiah said Jerusalem was going to be destroyed because of Israel's wickedness. Zedekiah said that's blasphemy. God will bless those that help us and curse those that fight us. Jeremiah reminded Zedekiah that's only in righteousness. Israel had become wicked and broken it's covenant. In that case God empowered Israel's enemies to conquer them to chastise them. Jerusalem was destroyed and the Babylonian capacity began.
That's not going to happen this time round. Right now Israel and Trump will sh*t kick Iran as the world's opinion turns against them. Xi Jinping will play the statesmen as he continues to solidify power within his dictatorship and continue to build his wealth through the Silk Road initiative. As he does that, Satan will continue to drain the US' wealth with uncontrolled debt from bad politicians on the far left and the far right.
Likewise Putin will continue to solidify power and wealth in preparation for the final showdown where the Dragon and the Bear take on the Eagle and conquer Israel and place Jerusalem under seize for three and a half years.
That's a long way away. Israel has the Iron Dome. Netanyahu is intentionally letting missiles through to gain public support and portray him as a victim just like he facilitated the October 7th attack. Trump and Netanyahu are evil.
That doesn't make Xi Jining and Putin good. It means two wrongs don't make a right. The UN or the WEF will not save us from Netanyahu. They will use Netanyahu as an excuse to make us all slaves if we let them. The best preparation for Armageddon is the same as the best preparation for the grave - personal righteousness. Live your best life and you'll have no regrets and don't forget the gathering. Try to stay away from cesspools of evil. Those won't be safe places to live.
I'm not saying Iran is a cesspool of evil because it's not. What we are witnessing is bullies getting swept up in their pride committing evil acts to justify their greed. That is what we are now watching. History will remember that.
CTV is reporting that "The CIA is working to arm Kurdish forces with the aim of fomenting a popular uprising in Iran, multiple people familiar with the plan told CNN." OK let's do the math.
Remember that Iranian drug dealer that was working with Damion Ryan? He was a Kurd. That means he was working for the CIA not for the Iranian government.
Naji Sharifi Zindashti is the son of a peshmerga commander. His father fought the Iranian government. He's a Kurd who resisted Iran's regime. The CIA also used Kurds in Syria to oppose Assad and the rival pipeline from Iran.
Brings us back to what Tulsi Gabbard was told when she visited Syria. The people asked her "Why is the United States providing support & arms to terrorist groups like ISIS who are raping, kidnapping, torturing, & killing the Syrian people when it was Al-Qaeda who attacked the United States on 9/11, not Syria. I didn't have an answer."
So now the CIA wants to do that in Iran as well to crush any hope of a rival pipeline. I guess my point is that this is further evidence that the CIA's claim their Kurd was working for the government of Iran and asked Damion Ryan to kill Iranian dissidents was a bold faced lie. Just say'n.
Maryam Rajavi, President-elect of the National Council of Resistance of Iran for the Transitional Period is from the MEKwhich is a terrorist cult. There's nothing godly about this.
I started this post before I saw the ridiculous video by Harley Quinn patching over some mental midgets in Newfoundland. Perhaps it's timely. Today I want to talk about 1%er MCs.
When I was young I had a mentor that rode a shovel head. He used to say HD 1%. His definition was only 1% of the population ride Harley Davidsons. His definition meant cream of the crop not bottom of the barrel.
That was long before the HAs came here. Sadly, the MC community has a very different definition of the term.
The term 1%er was a response to a statement a cop made about motorcyclists. He said 99% of motorcyclists are law biding citizens. 1% of them are criminals. When a group of neanderthals heard that they started wearing patches that said 1%er. They were boldly declaring that they were not law biding citizens. They were bragging about being criminals and claimed to be a member of an Outlaw Motorcycle Gang.
Not a club of motorcycle enthusiasts, a gang of criminals bragging about committing crime. So let's start there. When a member of a motorcycle club claims they are just a group of motorcycle enthusiasts but wear a diamond 1%er patch they are lying and everyone knows it. Nobody likes a liar.
One could say that I am a motorcycle enthusiast. I ride full seasons on the west coast. Every day. Yet I am most certainly not a 1%er nor would I ever want to be. All my years of service with the Guardian Angels was devoted to law and order.
There aren't many MCs on the West Coast like there may have been on the East coast. Like I used to say we don't have gangs in Canada we have drug trafficking networks. The New York gangs in the movie Warriors aren't here. Here we just have drug dealers selling drugs. That is all.
I've mentioned in the past about my volunteer work with the Guardian Angels. I don't usually talk about it anymore because that was a long time ago and no one really knows or remembers what that was. Yet I think an allegory would be timely.
I joined the Guardian Angels in Surrey and we would often take the Skytrain into Vancouver when we got bored. We didn't get involved with drugs or prostitution. We just kept the peace.
Back then the prostitution in Vancouver was a lot different than it is now. Perhaps it was more similar to the online escorts. It was a lot higher end. That was before the HAs took over and turned it all into nasty drug addicted prostitution. We wouldn't flirt with the prostitutes but we wouldn't disrespect them either.
I remember when I first started going downtown for late night patrol Shawn explained how things work. Late night patrol there weren't many guys. Usually you and one or two others combing thought the back allies of the DTES or Granville after 2:00 AM.
They used to say what happens in the alley stays in the alley. That was long before cellphones. There were no cameras, no cops and no witnesses. I want to stress that I didn't survive because of my martial arts skills or because I was so tough. I wasn't. I believed in what we were doing and was always protected by a higher power.
Sometimes when a conflict broke out late at night you'd see a big older biker type calm things down. We would always back him up. Back then the street had a code. Now it no longer does.
Fast forward to shortly before I started this blog. Curtis Sliwa came to town and asked if I'd help David Toner restart a new chapter in Vancouver. I said sure. I liked David. His step son was murdered at Surrey Central.
So I took a page from my New York experience with the group and started putting pressure on the crack dealers at Surrey Central. When crack became so invasive, Curtis had the group confront the crack dealers in New York on the Deuce in a very aggressive manner. The crack problem at Surrey central was too big for two volunteers to solve. So we picked a time.
Once a week on the weekend at the same time, we'd stand beside the crack dealers and make things uncomfortable for people wanting to buy from them. We couldn't stop them so we put a dent in their market so they'd notice. Then we saw the response. We started to see big biker types in SUVs drive around and try to intimidate us. I exchanged words with a few and it was always very aggressive and confrontational.
I asked myself WTF is going on here. 20 years ago it was the Whalley Burnouts and we chased them out easily. These weren't the Whalley Burnouts. This is big leagues.
There was a Corvette that would drive past and do burnouts. The person who I was with hung out at Gabbys and was told that guy worked for the HAs and supplies the drug dealers.
Then it happened. We're standing beside the crack dealers at Surrey central and this guy walks up to me with a different crack dealer, shakes my hand and introduces himself. Then he starts asking who were are and what we do. So I told him. Then he's like we do that. We do that. I didn't ask who we were but said great. The more people who do that the better.
Then he mentioned we better not get involved in their business and I didn't really have any idea what he was talking about and just shrugged it off. After he stepped aside the guy I was with said did you see his shirt?! No, I didn't see his stupid f*king shirt. Why? That's a Hells Angel he said. I was like WTF?
I walked back over to him and said if you're talking about gang violence, we don't get involved in that. We just ask everyone if they're going to do a hit not to do it in public so no innocent people get hurt. Then I walk back over to my post and start doing the math. I'm like what is he, doing here, with him?
My mentor when I was young, the one that rode a shovel head said don't believe what they say about the HAs. They're not into drugs and prostitution. They might smoke a little weed but they're into riding and camping not all that other stuff.
I believed him but that was long before the HAs came to Vancouver. So I grew up naive. When I saw the HAs enforcing for the crack dealers at Surrey Central a light went on. I realized that I had been duped.
Now I'm not saying all Hells Angels sell drugs. Maple Ridge has a sh*t load of HAs and they don't all sell drugs. I'm simply confirming what David Giles said on wire. Not all Hells Angels are criminals but if anyone uses the name of the club for criminal activity, they need the approval of the local executive.
