Fentanyl addiction in Calgary

A blog reader sent in a link to this powerful documentary on Vice about the Fentanyl drug trade in Calgary. It talks about how addictive the drug is and how it is much worse than heroin. This video talks about people who are addicted to Fentanyl and are intentionally buying it. That is no doubt what the local drug dealers are trying to create here in BC by lacing other drugs with it or as in the recent Fentanyl fatality in Shakers, selling straight up Fentanyl and pretending it's cocaine. These drug dealers who are cooking crack with Fentanyl and selling it to people unkowlingly are complete pecices of sh*t. Not arresting them for doing that is the epitome of insanity.

Just when you think it can't get any worse it does. Fentanyl is worse than Oxycontin and now there's a new drug called Carfentanyl which is even worse than Fentanyl. Border agents recently seized a kilo of the stuff in Vancouver that was enroute to Calgary. Stop the greed.

Rob Ford crack video released after publication ban lifted

The Metro news is reporting that since the publication ban on the extortion trial related to the Rob Ford crack pipe video has finally been lifted the new video of him smoking crack is now online.

So should we have set up a safe inhalation site for Rob Ford to smoke crack or should we send him to rehab? Rehab was the humane thing to do. Perpetuating his addiction was not. Confronting the problem is what forced him into rehab. Remember when courts used to force prolific offenders into rehab? Now the drug dealers support groups just continue to promote the drug trade and any rehab centre that helps people get off drugs instead of turning them into lifetime methadone addicts can't get government funding. Health Canada is the biggest criminal organization in the country funding the tax paid pharmaceutical scam as well as Insite's tax paid junkets.

Update: I totally forgot that Rob Ford passed away. Not to speak ill of the dead, but this guy did have a few issues. My point here is that for drugs like crack rehab is good, harm promotion is not.

16 year old drug OD in Starbucks washroom - Update

CBC is reporting that "Port Moody police say a 16-year-old girl died Sunday in a Port Moody Starbucks washroom where they also discovered drug paraphernalia and a small amount of drugs." Police haven't said what drugs were involved and whether or not it is tied to the recent surge in fentanyl fatalities but the bizarre response is very disturbing.

Once again extremists are using this tragedy to try and put a lethal injection site into every community under the sun. So does that mean we are going to open up lethal injection sites to minors? Just what are we really promoting here? Why are we rewarding drug dealers that sell tainted drugs? That is insane. It is indeed tragic a 16 year old girl died of a drug overdose. It could have been any of our daughters. No doubt the patrons at Starbucks are traumatized.

We cannot in good conscience endorse harm promotion without supporting treatment and prevention as well as enforcement of current laws with regards to charging drug dealers. Blindly endorsing the drug dealers the way we are is a crime. I have numerous people from different communities that consistently say they dont want a lethal injection site in their community. We need to start arresting the drug dealers. It is as simple as that. Failing to do that and we are part of the problem not part of the solution. Endorsing drug dealer support groups like VANDU is wrong. It's time to wake up and smell the coffee. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Update: CBC is reporting that "The mother of a Coquitlam, BC, teen who died of a suspected overdose in a Starbucks washroom says she tried to get help for her 16-year-old daughter who was struggling with addiction but the public waitlists were too long and she couldn't afford private clinics." Maybe spending tax dollars on rehab is more important than feeding Insite's slush fund.

Kelowna News - Shootings and Machete attack

Kelowna Info News is reporting that "RCMP have identified the man murdered in Kelowna’s Rutland neighbourhood on Friday. Police say Benjamin Cory Virgint was the victim of a targeted attack. RCMP were called to a fourplex in the 400 block of Hein Road at about 6:07 a.m., Friday, Aug. 5 for reports of shots fired. Virgint was found deceased."

Kelowna Info News is also reporting that "The man RCMP believe to be behind a shooting in West Kelowna last week has been charged and identified as Tyrone Reynolds McGee. The shooting happened early on Aug. 2 on Hudson Road near Highway 97." This is that bicycle sooting. "Sources say the 48-year-old victim was shot six times by a cyclist while he was in his car. A hospital staff member who does not want to be named says the crime is gang related."

Castanet is reporting that "a man was viciously attacked in a Kelowna park overnight – hacked with machetes, and kicked and punched. Police are now looking for two suspects in the attack, which took place at Ben Lee Park in Rutland just after midnight Monday." Which means it just happened. "RCMP believe that the victim was targeted by his attackers, said O’Donaghey. He was taken to hospital with serious, but non-life-threatening injuries. Police are looking for witnesses to the attack."

Police describe the first suspect as: First Nations, Between 25 to 30 years old, 6-feet, Shaved head, Heavy set, Wearing a red shirt. First Nations wearing a red shirt. What are the odds the guy was Redd Alert? The HAs used Redd Alert to take back all the drug dealaers in the DTES.

The second suspect is described as: Caucasian man, Shorter than the first suspect, Between 25 to 30 years old, Skinny or slender build, Wearing a sport jacket, with grey and black sleeves and a baseball cap. The Kelowna Warriors on the other hand are Hells Angel rivals.

Helping the Hells Angels obtain a monopoly on the drug trade does not end the violence. Just ask Brittany Irving, Janice Shore and Ashley Machiskinic. Look at the violence in the DTES and on the Surrey Strip. They are responsible for all that violence. Fronting addicts drugs is bad business. If you dont front addicts drugs, there are no drug debts. In both areas the drug dealers are the pimps that give crack to the sex trade workers then take all their money when they get a trick and brutalize them. There is nothing consensual about it. It's human trafficking.

Update: I have now confirmed from a second source that Redd Alert is not in Kelowna. No wonder Blaze is doing business on the Island. Nobody in Kelowna respects him and he is certainly not able to deal with any rivals. All that woman beater can do is bitch slap an ex.

Researcher astonished by level of drug violence in DTES

The Vancouver Province is reporting that "An international drug and addiction researcher says she has been astonished by the level of violence perpetrated by dealers and 'enforcers' in Vancouver’s notorious Downtown Eastside." No kidding. That's what we've been saying for years. Nice to hear it from a third party who is an expert in the field.

“What I wanted to do was to look at violence in (drug-dealing) situations, because I knew that dealing is very openly done here in the Downtown Eastside — and differently from other places,” said Stallwitz, who has studied community-mindedness in drug cultures in Scotland and Germany for 16 years. What she didn’t expect was the violent, extreme sanctions being used by some higher-level boss dealers when debts weren’t settled. 'The sanction part is massive here … violence as I’ve not experienced anywhere else on the street level,' she said."

"She also heard about robberies, forced dealing and prostitution, as well as “hot shots” — where someone is intentionally given an overdose — and attacks with carpet knives, sexual assaults and rape. Her sources recounted rare cases of people being pushed from windows, having their hair sliced off, being set on fire, and even murdered for as little as $30."

Sadly instead of arresting the violent drug dealers she blames the police and suggests handing out pamphlets to ask drug dealers to be nicer and for users to pay their debts. Stop the insanity and arrest the drug dealers for God's sake. Our social experiment has failed. It's time to try something else. It's even worse on the Surrey Strip.

Meanwhile back on the Ranch, Dumb and Dumber exploit another photo op and have another smoke and mirrors press conference saying they have narrowed down the choices to three to fill the vacant position of Surrey Police Chief. Believe you me the position was vacant when Bill Fordy was in it. What's the dancing monkey gonna do, pick someone of his own incompetence? Fraser MacRae was a Rock Star. Bill Fordy never came close. History has recorded that.

The Return of Xander Cage - from Russia with love

I don't know what this massive spike in traffic on my blog from Russia is all about but Greetings. I made a few posts about the Ukraine a while back. It's pretty obvious from the election before the conflict, half the population wanted to be part of Russia while the other half wanted to be part of the EU. I don't trust Putin but I don't have beef with him either. As far as I'm concerned he's no different than the Americans. He's willing to kill his own people and blame it on terrorists just to get elected. Back in Ireland they used to refer to Russia as big brother.

I still have love for my brother yo. From Russia with Love was an old James Bond movie that took place in Russia. Pure fiction as the MI 6 and the CIA are both dirty as f*ck. Vin Diesel fell for a Russian girl in the movie xXx. Turns out Vin Diesel is making a come back in xXx: The Return of Xander Cage featuring Nicky Jam. Now that's what I'm talking about. Reggaeton lives.

Philippines President: Shoot to kill drug dealers

Rodrigo Duterte, the new Philippines President is certainly making the news with his new shoot to kill policy on all suspected drug dealers. This is a prime example of extremism where human rights are completely abandoned. The Philippines has a long history of corruption. Now we have a guy who gets elected on a tough on crime platform that completely loses touch with reality and becomes worse than the drug dealers he is trying to eliminate.

Shooting all drug dealers without a trial is a very slippery slope. What's to stop him from shooting any political rivals and accusing them of being a drug dealer? Just like how England removed basic rights from terrorists then with one wave of the pen classified anyone who participates in the occupy movement as a terrorist. It's a pretty convenient way to remove the right to legal representation and a fair trial from anyone who disagrees with a government policy.

CNN is reporting that The President of the Philippines has named over 150 government officials who he says are complicit in the country's drug trade. How convenient. BBC is reporting that Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte has accused dozens of current or former politicians, officials and judges of links with illegal drugs and told them to surrender to be investigated.

Aljazeera is reporting that Duterte was speaking from his constituency of Davao, where he served as mayor before winning the presidency. Earlier on Saturday, Duterte had vowed to keep his "shoot-to-kill" order "until the last day of my term, if I'm still alive by then". "I don't care about human rights, believe me," he said, according to official transcripts released by the presidential palace. About 800 people have been killed since Duterte won a landslide election in May, according to reports by the local press, which has been tracking reports of extra-judicial killings.

The Mirror in England is reporting that The former Davao mayor said that drug addicts could not be rehabilitated, adding: “If you are involved in drugs, I will kill you. “You son of a whore, I will really kill you.” Mr Duterte insisted his vigilante anti-crime campaign would be “a bloody war,” as he offered bounties for killing drug lords. “I will pay, for a drug lord: five million pesos (£15,000) if he is dead. If he is alive, only 4.999 million,” he laughed. He did not say how a private citizen could identify suspects. He just said do it yourself if you have a gun.

This raging lunatic is no better than any other bloodthirsty dictator in the history of the earth. What's to stop anyone from robbing someone and claiming they shot them because they thought they were a drug dealer? This lunatic is insane and evil. There is nothing good about him.

Philippines does have a problem with corruption. This is not the way to deal with it. You can't protect freedom by doing away with it. A few years ago I was corresponding with a new branch of the RA in Belfast. They were asking me about the Hells Angels since they started a new chapter there. I said they will kiss your ass and tell you one thing, then the next minute they will be pimping Ireland's fair daughters and selling crack on the street. He said we don't allow that here. Here in West Belfast we shoot drug dealers dead. I chuckled and said we aren't quite there yet here in Canada. However, going to this new extreme is nothing to joke about.

Locally we have a real problem with corruption too. Perhaps even on a larger scale. Some police, some politicians and some judges are clearly involved. Shooting them all without a trial may be tempting but it is clearly not the answer because that process can easily be abused.

Here in Vancouver and Surrey we see the opposite extreme. We see police officers that refuse to arrest known drug dealers despite the consistent complaints of local business and residents. Instead of arresting the drug dealers that sold a bad batch of crack cocaine laced with fenytly, Bill Fordy is letting the harm promotion drug dealer support group set up tents and injection sites to promote addition and boost drug sales. Vancouver and the Philippines are two opposite extremes.

Somewhere in between those two extremes we have the New York Model where law enforcement arrest the known drug dealers. Failing to do that makes us criminally culpable in their crimes. I can tell you right now who reloads the Surrey strip and there they are supplied from. Yet Bill Fordy and the Gang Task Force refuse to do anything about it. Instead of shooting that dancing monkey dead for aiding and abetting those crimes the RCMP keep giving him promotions simply because they are corrupt at the top. That is the truth we now face.

Bicycle shooting in West Kelowna

CBC is reporting that "A man was shot multiple times in West Kelowna Tuesday night during what police say was a targeted attack. West Kelowna RCMP say the 48-year-old victim was in a vehicle when he met up with a man on a bicycle at Hudson Road near Highway 97. The cyclist allegedly produced a firearm and started shooting at the driver. Then, police say, the driver hit the cyclist with his vehicle."

"The driver was rushed to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries. RCMP used a police dog to find and arrest the alleged gunman, a 29-year-old West Kelowna man, who they say was hiding in the vicinity." So West Kelowna gets a drive by shooting on bicycle and the target runs him down in is car. Somewhat humours.

Another social experiment

We talked about the Hamilton social experiment where a guy was being racist towards a Muslim and the people stuck up for the Muslim. Now we have another one where a Muslim and an Orthodox Jew are walking together through a Jewish neighbourhood, then through an Arab / Muslim neighbourhood. The people were a bit shocked but all were very supportive.

That's what I'm talking about. A free republic is where Jews, Muslims, Christians, Buddhists and Atheists can all maintain their own religious traditions and live together in peace. Adapting a single state religion is not a free republic. The freedom of religion applies to everyone.

Then at the end of the video they walk through a mixed neighbourhood and a piece of white trash calls the Muslim a terrorist. I rather keep the Muslim and the Jew but get rid of the white trash.



The world needs compassion and action not hate and intolerance.

Gang news update - fatality at Fraser Pretrial

Kelowna Capital News is reporting that "The trial for the three men accused of the 2011 gangland style slaying of Jonathan Bacon has again been delayed. Jujhar Khun-Khun, Jason Thomas McBride and Michael Hunter Jones will now go to trial May 1 2017 for one charge of first-degree murder apiece, as well as multiple attempted murder charges and firearms offences. That date marks nearly six years since the shooting that threw Kelowna into chaos."

So Kling Klung is still taking the fall for the Kelowna shooting and the Jonathan Bacon murder. Might as well. Someone's gotta do it. Kelowna Capital News is also reporting that Mounties seized a load of cash and illegal drugs as the result of an investigation into two men with gang ties. It's obviously a Hells Angels rival because of the miniscule amount of drugs seized: 5.25 ounces of Heroin; 8.75 ounces of Cocaine; 2.5 ounces of Methamphetamine; and $21,000 cash.

I wonder if the BC Gang Task force is every going to target Hells Angels and the big drug rings again. Nobody seems to care about the massive amount of drugs being sold outside the Front Room on the Surrey Strip or the fact that the drug dealers just there sold a bad batch of crack laced with fentanyl. Instad of arresting the drug dealers in Surrey Bill Fordy is letting them set up illegal injection sites to help the drug dealers do more business. Still no word about the fentanyl fatality at Shakerz in the news.

Tragically there was a fatality at Fraser Pretrial. The Surrey Now is reporting that A 25-year-old man is dead after a fight between two cell mates at Surrey Pretrial on Wednesday (Aug. 3). A lot of work still needs to be done to address the violence in the prison system.

A drug lab was busted in Agassiz and an organized crime crackdown in New York. Too bad Surrey is too afraid to embrace the New York model. They're winning the war on crime. We're not.
