Harper’s aide charged with influence peddling

Well, Bruce Carlson is back in the news. He was Harper’s senior aide that had a criminal record for fraud before he was brought into Harpers secret circle. He’s the guy that was caught channelling money from government contracts into his young fiancée the escort’s account. Dirty old man.

Well now that enough time has passed they have finally charged him with influence peddling. The Harper spin doctors now refer to him as his ex aide and are trying to make it look like they are the ones that blew the whistle on him. This is where Harpers spin doctors cross the line right into the world of blatant dishonesty.

Ron Bencze pleads guilty to sexually assaulting Surrey boy

This is another tragic case. The Surrey Now is reporting that former television crime reporter Ron Bencze will be sentenced on Aug. 28 after pleading guilty to sexually assaulting a Surrey boy. The crown is recommending a federal prison sentence of between two and three years for Bencze, who has been on bail since the day after his Jan. 18, 2011 arrest. His lawyer argued for 18 to 24 months of house arrest. That sentence is shameful.

Bencze, 46, of Surrey, was originally charged with nine sexual offences related to three children. On Thursday he pleaded guilty in Surrey Provincial Court to one count of sexual assault involving a boy who is now 14. Lopes said the molesting, which included masturbation and oral sex, started when the boy was nine.

OK so hold the door. If the molestation started when the boy was nine, that implies that it didn’t stop there. It implies that it continued over a period of time and would therefore be more than one offense. He was originally charged with nine offenses relating to three children. So who decided that the charges for the other children shouldn’t be pursued? How can we drop those charges and claim that we have any regard for justice or for protecting children?

The healing process for the victim begins with the validation a criminal conviction brings. There is no justice but a criminal conviction does bring validation and starts the healing process.

So hear we have a case of child molestation that didn’t involve a Catholic priest. It involved a TV news reporter. Recently we heard of a former RCMP officer who died in prison that was sentenced to prison for child molestation.

Bigger news was the Penn State sexual assault cover up. Many people knew about the sexual abuse but they covered it up to protect the University’s football program. Here in Canada we had a hockey coach convicted of sexually abusing young boys. So here we see the church, the police, football and even hockey plagued with sexual abuse. Is nothing sacred? Clearly this does not mean all hockey is bad. It means sexual predators can infiltrate any organization and that children still need to be protected. An ounce of prevention is indeed worth a pound of cure.

Evidence at the trial for Graham James detailed hundreds of incidents of assault. James was convicted and sentenced to three-and-a-half years in prison. Graham James served less than two years in prison before being paroled and released. In 2007 he received a full pardon from Canada's Parole Board.

In the years after his parole, reporters found James living in Spain, where he was an assistant coach with the national hockey team, and Mexico. This is not protecting children.

Sexually assaulting children is like murder. You steal something that can never be returned. It’s not like shoplifting where you can return the stolen item and say you’re sorry. When you commit murder you take something that can never be returned. In the Bencze case one of the victims said “I felt suppressed because I had to keep a secret,” he wrote. “I am trying to live and behave as a normal teenager.” His childhood was “tainted,” he added. “I feel that I have missed out on a childhood that was meant for me.”

We’ve talked about getting a fresh start on life. We’ve touched on rehabilitation. How do we rehabilitate after child abuse. The first step is to come clean and admit the damage done to all the victims not just cop a plea to get a reduced sentence and a pardon. That is outrageous.

We know that victims don’t always become offenders but we also know that many male victims do become offenders thus perpetuating the cycle of abuse. We stop the cycle by confronting the problem and dealing with it not by sweeping it under the carpet. By sweeping it under the carpet we simply perpetuate the problem.

Another aspect of dealing with child abuse is to stop sexual assault in prison. Sending someone to jail to be sexually assaulted, then release them to become an offender in the public does not help society. No one deserves to be sexually assaulted. Not even prisoners.

TBM Fresh Start

On a much more positive note, TBM is a great organization in Denmark for former gang members who want to make a fresh start in life. They’re hoping to reach out and expand into Canada and the US. They want to create a support system for people to leave the gang life and start a new life.

I’m all for the old fashion principle of repentance. No matter what your past, you have a spotless future. Anyone can change. The key word there is change. As in leaving the old ways behind and starting a new life by embarking on a fresh start. One of the concerns they have is the old timers who are by definition old school, frustrated with the new kids on the block who are solely into selling drugs and making money and have no concept of brotherhood whatsoever.

TBM which is short for former gang members in Danish was formed in 2009 by 27 former gang members (Black Cobras, Bloodz, Bandidos and Hells Angels) in Denmark. TBM are now represented in Denmark, Germany, Norway and Sweden and are working hard to be established in the rest Europe and U.S.A.

Most of them want to stay anonymous. The goals of their organization is to speak to youth in schools about gangs, as well as provide support for gang members to leave the gang life both inside and outside of prison. They also provide support for bikers and gang members to get jobs, education as well as for their families to leave the gang life behind. TBM is also collaborating with different Danish municipalities on hiding former gang members in safe houses and helping them to get on with a normal life. Now that that is brotherhood.

George Bush's visit to Surrey cost taxpayers $45,000

Speaking of George Bush and 9/11, CBC just released the policing costs of George Bush and Bill Clinton's visit to Surrey last year: $45,000.00. Now it is not surprising that hosting any foreign dignitaries would cost money for security. Especially for a war criminal. He would need more protection than a real dignitary. However, if Dianne Watts really did say policing for the event wouldn't cost taxpayers anything, that was not only untrue but unrealistic. Any event where the police are needed costs money.

At first I accepted Dianne Watts response as to why she invited Bush to Surrey. She simply said it's a nonpartisan event and we are inviting famous leaders from around the world. Then when I heard her offensive rhetoric about Bush not being charged for vetoing the bill to stop torture she lost my vote and my support. George Bush and Bill Clinton were the last people on earth to invite to an economic summit. George Bush put the United States trillions in debt through lies and fraud while his pal Dick Cheney became a war profiteer through Halliburton.

The Bush family has a long history of investment fraud. Bill Clinton could speak on money laundering in Mena, Arkansas and how he helped crash the BCCI. Listening to those two clowns we can learn what not to do. I am bitter. We should not have invited them to speak. Then claiming it wouldn't cost taxpayers any money was simply dishonest.

Bacchus president pleads guilty to manslaughter

Matthew Foley, 50, pleaded guilty to manslaughter on Thursday in connection with the shooting death of a Saint John man outside of the Bacchus Motorcycle Club's headquarters July 14. He was originally charged with second degree murder and copped a plea.

So we now know for certain Matthew Foley was the one that shot him and is therefore a murderer. Glad we got that straight. However, one thing is certain and it wasn’t manslaughter. He was seen on video pulling out his gun and going after Michael Schimpf. He was then seen returning to reload then going back after Schimpf. That was not manslaughter. He had the intent to kill him and he did exactly that.

Not only that but he shot up the whole neighborhood. That was reckless endangerment. It is a crime not to charge him with that. This case is clearly gang related because the murderer is the president of a gang and the shooting took place outside the gang’s clubhouse. The victim doesn’t have to be a member of a gang for it to be gang related. The shooter was so that makes it gang related.

The police are still saying it wasn’t related to organized crime. The murderer claimed the victim threw a brick through the window of his tattoo shop. That is what the murderer said. The victim can’t testify because he’s dead. An anonymous poster in support of the murderer claimed it wasn’t gang related because it was about drugs. Which would mean it was related to organized crime.

Stripper agencies want to recruit at High Schools

Once again, this is absurd. The Vancouver Province is reporting if the Vancouver School Board won’t let the adult entertainment industry recruit strippers from within its high schools, industry reps say they’ll stand out on the street and hand out flyers. How about not let them at the job fairs and arrest them for handing out flyers to kids under 18. Strippers work in bars. They should be 19 not 18. Once again this is an example of the bold arrogance the industry displays as it demands to push the envelope regardless of public opinion. Let kids be kids. Stay out of High schools you God forsaken animals.

Let's do some math. Years ago the Vancouver Sun quoted Andy Richards as saying: There used to be six or seven agencies that handled strippers in Vancouver, but now two are controlled by the Angels or associates and one is an independent, Richards said. In the early 1990s, Richards said, the now-dead Hells Angels member Donald Roming was one of the key enforcers helping push others out of the stripper business -- at one point seriously assaulting one of the owners of another agency.

"Without speaking ill of the dead, he was responsible for laying a very serious beating on a 67-year-old man who was involved with one of the independent companies at the time, to the point this guy was hospitalized," he explained. There were no arrests from these "takeovers" because of the victims' reluctance to report the activities to police, he added. We know, that the "largest name" in stripper agencies is located at Suite 101 - 10768 King George Hwy, Surrey, in the Flamingo Hotel.

Do we really want the Hells Angels recruiting strippers in our high Schools? I don't. It starts off with an invitation to be a stripper to raise money for university tuition. Then they give them some E to "help them lose weight." Then they give them some blow to help them perform. Then they give them some crack to save money. Low and behold a crack ho is born. That is exploitation.



I really find it irritating when so many Hells Angel trolls keep trying to post bullshit in the comments. I quoted Andy Richards who said the Hells Angels used violence to take over the stripper industry in BC. Let’s take Surrey for example. White Rock Hells Angel Randy Jones owns T-barz in Surrey. That is a strip bar. He has it registered in his mothers name. He used to have the tbarz domain name registered in his name until I went public with that info. Then he put that in his mothers name too.

CJ Spoon, also known as CJ Barroby, is a flaming idiot. He has a stripper facebook group and recruits strippers for Randy and T-barz. CJ was the one given house arrest for trafficking cocaine for the Hells Angels from the traitor Peter Leask. So let’s do the math. Randy Jones, Hells Angel. Owns a strip bar in Surrey. CJ Barroby, convicted of selling cocaine for the Hells Angel. CJ has a stripper agency and supplies Tbarz with strippers. That is two documented connections of the Hells Angels being involved in the stripper industry in Surrey. The freakin headquarters of Strippernet is another.

Verma’s trial postponed another year

After a series of absurd delays and an unprecedented closed courtroom appearance, Joey Verma’s murder trial has been postponed another year. Now that is criminal. It’s hard to know what they’re thinking. Are they trying to purposely delay a high profile murder case just to make the BC judicial system look dysfunctional in hopes they’ll get some more funding? Funding is a concern but postponing the trial another year is indeed criminal. That’s a three year delay so far just to get the trial started. That is beyond shameful.

Former RCMP officer dies in jail

This is a tragic case. A former RCMP officer from Alberta convicted of child molestation has died in prison. No foul play is suspected and since privacy concerns are cited, the news is speculating he committed suicide. What is tragic about the case is what he did to get to prison.

Allen's sexual assault victim, who can only be identified by the initials K.R. due to a publication ban, was discovered after police found that Allen had chatted with the boy online and lured him to his apartment.

Allen, who was HIV-positive, arranged to have an HIV-positive male friend pick up the boy and bring him to Allen's West End apartment, where the two men sexually assaulted the youth in September 2009. Later, Allen bragged about the "tag-team" sexual assault on a chat line. Allen, who served as a Mountie in Alberta from 1978 to 1984, was arrested while living in Vancouver May 2010 where the sexual assault took place.

Enbridge Pipeline Meltdown

The war of words between BC and Alberta’s premiers has begun to reveal some true colours. BC wants more revenue if it’s going to assume the environmental risk and Alberta says no way. BC says it wants Alberta to cover the cost of clean up if there is a spill in their pipeline and the Alberta premiere said that was ridiculous. Clearly the bottom line is greed.

The primary concern is environmental risk. The primary concern is a Huston firm that has a horrible history of bad maintenance and bad safety standards. This has tainted the project and swayed the balances in favor of rejecting the proposal. Letting this company build the pipeline would be irresponsible. Period. There is no reason a Canadian company or another company with a better track record of maintenance and safety standards could take over the project.

Another concern is transporting toxic unrefined oil. Not only is that exporting jobs, it is increasing the environmental risk. Canada is famous for shooting itself in the foot and exporting raw materials. This is very short sighted. We could solve the pipeline problem by drilling oil off shore on the BC coast.

Realistically, a pipeline doesn’t create jobs in BC. It may generate revenue providing clean up costs from an oil spill doesn’t suck up that limited revenue. Tourism on the other hand does create jobs in the province.

Whatever we do decide to do, it is imperative we be selective in the company we entrust our sacred environment to. Enbridge is not the company to trust. These companies with bad maintenance and bad safety standards keep changing their name to avoid liability yet they stay involved and keep causing accidents with no regard for others. The only way this will change is if we change the company that gets the contract. We need better safety standards. I do not support Enbridge’s bid on the Northern Pipeline any more.

Hang Matt Foley!

There’s been a lot of traffic on the post about the president of Bacchus in Saint John shooting someone outside their clubhouse. You could say it’s the story of the week. It even surpassed the Larry Amero sighting in Montreal. I take that back. Larry Amero's post just more than doubled the Bacchus shooting post. Ok trippled. Recently I did a podcast about the Big House Crew talking about the absurdity of the Free Deli and the Free Greg Domey campaigns.

Deli was a crack dealer who supported the Ontario Hells Angels murdering one of their own guys from LHS - Loyalty Honour Silence so the Ontario Hells Angels could take over the drug trade in northern Manitoba. Deli isn’t a political prisoner. He’s a crack dealer who supported the betrayal and murder of one of his own guys. Likewise Greg Domey was a crystal meth dealer in Massachusetts. Nothing noble there to campaign for.

Now we officially enter the Twilight Zone as brain dead zombies create a Free Matt Foley page. This is the president of Bacchus that shot the guy dead outside their clubhouse and recklessly endangered everyone in the neighborhood because he was a lousy shot and shot up the whole neighborhood. A campaign to free that guy is stupid and evil.

What’s even more shameful and absurd is Matt Folley the fuck up posing with a baby in a picture on the site. He’s trying to gain sympathy. He just murdered someone’s baby. That is totally offensive. They have brain dead idiots posting offensive comments like you’re in our prayers. We’re praying for you to come home soon. Yeah, praying to who? Because murder is not of God.

I’m sure the victims family are praying their loved one wasn’t murdered. To ask God to bring a murderer home without justice is to mock God justice. We all know that Bacchus are a puppet club for the Hells angels who say support your local 666. These people are insane and offensive.

Instead we need to launch a campaign to have him hanged. I’ve never been a fan of the death penalty but when I see such an outrageous mockery of justice I’m convinced that it’s time to bring it back. Clearly these people have no conscience and the consequence of the law is the only thing that will restrain their murderous hearts.
