Reflections on the Kelowna Summer Jam

As we anxiously await the Press conference about what was seized in the Kelowna Hells Angels raid, I just wanted to reflect on what started off as the Kelowna Summer Jam. The name of the event was taken from a Young Jeezy and Akon song where he says if ya get jammed up, don’t mention my name.

Recently the Hells Angels were implicated in a drug related murder in Dawson Creek which indeed opens a can of worms regarding a long string of drug related violence in that community. Recently a former associate of Tony Terezakis was shot dead in Surrey. Likely his murder had nothing to do with that case but it does once again show a Hells Angels connection to another string of drug related murders.

Big Tony’s case was very disturbing. Not just because of the murder of informants that connected the Hells Angels to the crack cocaine trade in East Vancouver, but because of his personal use of violence against drug addicts in East Van. Big Tony was a drug dealer for the Hells Angels in East Van. The guy video taped himself beating the life out of drug addicts who owed him money. As he beat them he would shout praise the lord and spit in their face. When they played the videos in court Tony couldn’t hold back the laughter. That is clearly deranged.

It also shows the violent mistreatment of drug addicts in East Van. Handing out free needles and free crack pipes doesn’t make the drugs free. Feeding those addictions feeds the violence and exploitation that goes along with it. Making money off the poorest and most vulnerable in the country is very low. Which brings us back to the Kelowna Summer Jam.

Britney Irving did not deserve to die. She didn’t rat out anyone. She sold pot to support her oxy addiction and was killed right after she made the decision to go into rehab. Geoff Meisner didn’t deserve to die. His kids miss him dearly. Geoff didn’t steal anything from anyone. Just as concerning as their senseless murders is the absurd lies that went along with them trying to hide and rationalize the real motive. Greed.

Vancouver is often referred to as lotus land. Despite the beautiful surroundings, many people here are materialistic yuppies. They care more about what they have then what they do. Adam Scorgie made a movie about the wealth associated with the pot industry. He didn’t mention a word about the Hells Angels use of violence to control that industry.

He talked about working in a club and seeing young guys with tons of cash come into the club and buy everyone drinks. He saw the draw of that kind of money very appealing. Sad. Wasting that kind of money on booze in a bar or on a new ugly suv is a very shallow existence and no reason to betray a friend. Strange how he would idolize that knowing in the end it killed people he knew in his own community.

Which brings us back to Dain Philips. Dain didn’t deserve to die either. The Hells Angels involvement in his murder is indisputable. Two patch members and one puppet club associate were seen beating him to death with hammers. As a result, the club has pulled back their public support and the two patch members have been beaten in prison.

I don’t support crack or crystal meth. Nor do I support the crime and violence that go along with it. I don’t support the Hells Angels violent control of the pot industry either or their extortion of the entire 420 movement. Supporting that violence is wrong. Completely and utterly.

In the words of Chris Tucker in Rush Hour 2 "Follow the rich white man."

Extortion: Money for Nothing

In Denmark, there has been a series of articles in the news about gangs committing extortion. One story in particular involves a 67 year old woman being targeted. That’s pretty low. Several taverns in Copenhagen were being charged protection money. Jane Pedersen, the 67 year old owner of the Café Viking refused. The good news is that with the added media attention, the gangs seem to have backed off a bit. Bullies don’t want exposure.

Michael Green from TBM talked about extortion in the news and pointed out that you really don’t get anything for your money. Just like that old Dire Straights song, Money for Nothing. I have to agree. As much as I am opposed to selling crack, at least drug dealers are selling a product. Extortion is indeed money for nothing. Pay us this money or you might have an accident. That’s just as bad as selling crack.

I hear it is common in Montreal and they call it Pizzo. Well, I’m not from Montreal, I’m from Vancouver and the only Pizza I know about is the kind that comes with pepperoni and cheese. Extortion is what parasites do. They live off others and suck them dry.

Another form of extortion is insane interest on loans. One gambler in Montreal borrowed $20,000 and repayed $15,000 within seven months. He was told that was just the interest and was beaten with a hammer when he started making more payments. That wasn’t the Italians in was the Irish (West end gang).

The View from Mount Seymour

Here’s a scenic interlude to help keep things in perspective. All of these photos were taken yesterday except for the last one. The first picture is of Mount Seymour also known as third peak or third pump for local hikers taken from second peak. The chair lift doesn’t actually take you to the top of mount Seymour. You have to hike or snowshoe to it. The view is more than worth it.

The following five pictures are the panoramic view from the top of mount Seymour, third peak. If you actually click on the picture you can see a larger version of it. In the first of the five panorama shots you can see Stanley Park and Lions gate bridge on the left. Spanning right is the panorama of mountains from one picture to the next until you come full circle back to Stanley Park and Lion’s gate bridge on the right of the fifth panorama picture.











This one is a zoom in of Deep Cove from Seymour third peak.

This one is the same shot of First Pump from Second pump only in the winter.

Kelowna Hells Angels clubhouse raided

Speak of the devil. I was just saying we hadn’t heard anything from Kelowna in a while. All this news coming out of Montreal and the Maritimes distracted us. Drive by’s are always happening in Surrey. So Castanet is confirming it, the police had a search warrant for a Southeast District drug file and raided the Kelowna Hells Angels clubhouse. I hope they didn't find Giles' rusty vibrator. Somethings are better left unsaid. Press conference on Monday in Vancouver.

I doubt they found anything as no one would be stupid enough to stash anything at the clubhouse but it is good to see them keep the pressure on for the Kelowna Summer Jam. If ya get jammed up, don’t mention ma name. I do have some comments to make but I have to get up early for work and I just got back from climbing Seymour third peak so I’m bagged. Catch ya on the rise G.



Hey everybody, look. It's Billy the Kid having a mid life crisis. Deja Vu. Reminds me of Robert Thomas trying to stare down reporters last time. Only look where Thomas is now. Getting his ass kicked in prison and nobody cares. Prospects and greenhorns. They still have the biggest chip on their shoulders trying to prove to the world what an idiot they really are. You go girl.



Update: David Giles - BUSTED! Oh Happy Day!

Lighthouse Park

Another drive by shooting in Surrey last night. An associate of Tony Terezakis. That brings back bad memories. Took the bike out to Lighthouse park tonight. Nice place to see the sunset. You need a flashlight or a headlamp to get back to the parking lot in the dark though. Oddly enough there was a couple of seals slapping the water tonight. One would surface, slap the water three times then submerge. Ten feet away another would do the same thing and back and forth.



Ya see lots of seals around. Sometimes lying on the rocks in the sun. I’m not sure what the slapping the water was all about. Maybe they were trying to scare me off so they could climb up on the rocks. Ya see lots of seal kayaking. I was at the other end of deep cove by granite falls once and a seal did that same slap the water like a beaver and almost growled at me. It’s somewhat out of character for the normally friendly seals you see everywhere. I was beginning to wonder if that one had rabies. So tonight I see the slap the water trick again. Interesting.



Wonderful sunset though. The land in the distance on the left is Vancouver Island believe it or not. I never realized growing up you can see Vancouver Island from the coast. As I said before, at night you can see the lights of Victoria and Nanaimo from the top of sky chair on Cypress.



All this time on the water has me thinking about Kelowna. Haven’t heard much from Kelowna lately other than Darryl Wilcox's cocaine conviction, Ryan Ennis and Josh Armstrong being Neighbors and Giles’ DUI of course. We’ll have to follow up on the Kelowna Summer Jam before the summer ends. Noticed the PNE is on. One of the sad signs that summer is almost over.

Hells Angels associate gunned down in Surrey

Christopher Pammenter was shot and killed in a drive by outside his Fraser Heights house in Surrey Thursday night. He exchanged gunfire with someone in a white car that sped away from the scene. He is known to police and at this point it appears to be a targeted, gang-related shooting.

Pammenter was charged in a Calgary extortion case in 2002 with Anthony (Tony) Terezakis, who was a central person in an eight-year investigation by police into cocaine trafficking that resulted in the murders of five people in Abbotsford in 1996 and two people in Burnaby in 1995

We remember Big Tony and we remember that case. It connected the Hells Angels to the crack cocaine trade in East Vancouver back in 1995 where a police agent and his wife were murdered Christmas eve. “The Boys” brought Christmas gifts of gasoline to burn the house down after they were killed. The person who ordered the hit instructed the person hired to do the hit to kill his co accused on the scene but the opportunity failed him. They even murder the people they hire to commit murder. No L&R there only greed and betrayal. The Hells Angels are not welcome in Surrey.

The Surrey Leader found a picture of Christopher Pammenter. With a name like Pammenter, I thought he was Indo Canadian. Turns out he’s Caucasian.

Bacchus cut off their Pinocchio nose but still kiss ass

Well, Buttkiss are kissing each other’s ass over this ridiculous apology they received from the RCMP. An RCMP officer warned the public about Bacchus coming to St. George in that they were a 1% OMG tied to the Hells Angles. That is true. Mike Weatherly was covered in Hells Angels support pins. Apologizing for making that statement is rather ridiculous as is Buttkiss' codependent love fest over it. Matt Foley is a murderer. Bacchus was selling drugs in PEI for the Hells Angels. They post pictures of themselves with Hells angels just like the Zig Zag crew did. Those are the facts. The police have a moral duty as well as a legal obligation to warn the public of criminal activity. Their new logo looks more like Marvin the Martian from Looney Tunes.



They can cut off their condom covered brown nose on their new logo all they want but they still kiss ass and as soon as they start kissing each other’s ass that Pinocchio nose keeps growing right back. They are brown nosers. That is all they are and all they ever will be. They will never be independent from the Hells angels or they would cease to exist. Theirs is a puppet’s life forever.



I will point out the Nazi lightening bolts on one of their new tattoos. That is the same thing as a swastika. It is racist and pisses on the graves of all the solders who died on the beaches of Normandy liberating France from Nazi occupation. How does your finger puppet Mike Weatherly feel about that? In Montreal the White Supremacists get Greg Wololey to sell drugs for them. Looks like that con is catching on. Just like Tupac said, crack’s got em crazy. Jumping out of the frying pan into a new form of slavery. Pat James is the flaming idiot causing all the problems in Bridgewater. Patron saints all right. It’s spelt the same dumbass.

Haney Hells Angels associate loses murder appeal

Ryan Randolph Holden shot rival drug dealer, Kelly Roney, 60, outside a Dawson Creek pub June 2007. He was sentenced to 10 years in prison for manslaughter. Back then we still had the two for one pretrial credit for time served. He served four years before his sentence and got double time credit for those four years. So ten years less eight years made two left to serve for murder. That was insane. So really he received a six year sentence for murder. He appealed that offensive sentence and the appeal was denied.

Here’s the thing: The Vancouver Province is reporting that Holden worked for the Maple Ridge Hells Angels selling drugs for them in Dawson Creek. It gets a bit messy because the rival drug dealer he killed also worked for the Hells Angles. We’re not sure if it was the same chapter. The key thing here is that the Haney Hells Angels, they are the ones in Maple ridge, have been implicated in the Dawson Creek drug trade. That would be Spikes chapter. The one he took over after Ernie Ozolins was murdered.

We know that the Hells Angels run the drug trade in Prince George which is close to Dawson Creek. We know that there has been a rash of drug related violence in Dawson Creek ever since Natasha Dostal’s murder. Rumors back then implied the Hells Angels were involved.

Of course Ricky Ciarniello, the fat ass liar, denies either drug dealers were associates of the Hells angles. I suppose he denies Jonathon Bacon was a Hells angels associate too. Or the Renegades, the Crew, the GTS or the Independent Soldiers just like he denied the Jesters were affiliated with the Hells angels even though Vinnie toothless was caught with papers saying they were. Some things will never change.

We figured out how to tell when Ricky fat ass is lying. His lips are moving. That guy has to be from weird Hal’s chapter. He wouldn’t make it in East Van. I can’t believe they call him their spokesperson. That’s pretty revolting alright. He was even panhandling at Sturgis North selling his support your local crack dealer shirts. Get a job.

Scrabble fight in prison turns to stabbing

This bizarre one struck a cord. The Vancouver Province reported that two inmates in Kamloops were playing scrabble when a fight broke out and one of the inmates stabbed the other inmate in the eye with a pencil. I know we can laugh as it sounds bizarre even though losing sight in one’s eye is no laughing matter. The idea of fighting over a scrabble game sounds rather ridiculous.

Then all of a sudden a light went on. The guy that stabbed the other inmate over the scrabble game had plead guilty to stabbing an under cover police officer and killing his girlfriend. OK now wait a second. Stabbing an under cover police officer. We know someone in jail for that. The son of the former Edmonton Police chief. We also know his girlfriend went missing right after he was let out of prison for stabbing her. Turns out it’s the same guy.

Mark Lindsay, son of former police chief John Lindsay has plead guilty to murdering his girlfriend Dana Turner who went missing right after he was released from prison for stabbing her. John Lindsay resigned as Edmonton police chief after allegations that the department was leaking information to the Hells Angels.

Another Mounted Mountie

This just keeps getting worse. Another mountie in the news, this time having and affair with a US Judge. With all these sexual indiscretions in the RCMP lately people are really beginning to think the term Mounted Police has sure taken on a new meaning. Point granted it just an allegation of a convicted money launderer yet the court document quotes the judge’s ex husband about the alleged affair. I’ll dive into this one a bit more on my days off.
