70th Anniversary of the Hells Angels

I just clued in that St Patrick's Day was the 70th Anniversary of the Hells Angels. The club was founded on March 17th 1948. There's good and bad in every organization and the case law for criminal organization status for the Hells Angels is staggering. However, I think George Christie and Kerri Krysko put the controversy to rest.

Kerri Krysko said that the Hells Angels aren't a criminal organization, they are an organization of criminals. She states that there are a lot of members with criminal records but there are far more who don't have any criminal records at all. Maple Ridge is a good example. There are a lot of Hells Angels in Maple Ridge. They don't all sell crack.

George Christie said the Hells Angels aren't a criminal organization because the members of the club that are involved with criminal activity are stingy and don't share the proceeds of crime with all the other members. Now that is believable.

David Giles said not all members are involved with criminal activity but anyone who uses the name of the club for criminal activity must get permission from the local executive. That implicates the local executive of any chapter where members are found guilty of criminal offenses.

Sonny Barger founded the Oakland chapter. George Wethern was the former Vice-President of the Oakland Chapter. In his book A Wayward Angel Wethern claims: "The Oakland Angels began issuing new charters and assisting chapters set up their own drug operations. The additions were designed to contribute to our image and business concerns, by providing a drug route link, manufacturing a drug, supplying chemicals, or distributing drugs in an untapped area."

Not to hate, but I will point out that former Navy Intelligence officer Al Martin claimed that the CIA did use the Hells Angels to help distribute their cocaine during Iran Contra. Al Martin claimed that Oliver North met with the president of the Hells Angels himself. That's OK. Jim Delashmit is now a preacher and Oliver North is now a Fox TV News host.

Gary Webb was right. The real villains in this drug war are the CIA. Just say'n.

Kill the Messenger and Freeway: Crack in the System are now both on Netflix.

Police search homes, vehicles linked to Hells Angels

CBC is reporting that "Police targeted the Hells Angels this morning in a series of raids in the Laurentians, the Montérégie and the Outaouais, searching several locations linked to drug trafficking." Only in Quebec you say? Pity. No doubt the RCMP compromised that mission again. In BC they refuse to investigate organized crime. That's why we need to bring back the OMGU.

Damion Ryan's shooter walks over charter delays

Keith Fraser is reporting that "A judge has found that a man accused of conspiracy to commit murder and attempted murder had his rights violated following his arrest by Vancouver police. Knowah Ferguson of Hamilton, Ont., was charged with trying to shoot and kill Hells Angel Damion Ryan at the Vancouver airport on April 10, 2015. The allegation is that he approached Ryan while Ryan was seated at a table with an Asian male in a food court at the airport and pulled out a firearm. There was a clicking sound and the gun failed to fire, according to a ruling on the rights violation. All three people at the scene then took off running, according to the ruling."

As we know, Damion Ryan became a member of the Ontario Village Idiots until the Quebec brothers disbanded them. Kim Bolan is reporting that Damion Ryan is now living in Greece where the Edmonton scum bags ganged up on a local father and beat him to death.

China's president returns to draconian totalitarianism

The president of China just removed term limits making him king of the Communist dictatorship and just announced Beijing is ready to fight a bloody battle against all it's enemies. Do you think it's finally time to break their corporate monopoly on Canad'as oil? Do you think it might be time for us to stop funding the military expansion of a Communist state that murders political prisoners to order for organ harvesting every time we fill up with gas at the pump?

ABC is reporting that "Human rights lawyer Yu Wensheng did the unthinkable in Xi Jinping's China. In an open letter, last October he criticised the President's "totalitarian rule" and called for immediate political reform and democracy. The next day, as he was walking his son to school, he was detained by a squad of security police and man-handled into a van. His wife, Xu Yan, hasn't seen him since." There is nothing democratic about these draconian reforms in China.

China state media merger to create propaganda giant

The Guardian is reporting that "China has confirmed plans to merge its state television and radio stations to create a new broadcaster that will be one of the largest propaganda platforms in the world." Can we not see where this is going? Letting that evil profit from our oil is insane.

Mobility pricing is a driver tax for the Mayor's glutton council

It is clear that the Mayor's glutton council needs to be disbanded. All they do it try to think up new ways to raises taxes for them to spend. A letter to the Vancouver Province says it well: “Mobility pricing is a shiny, friendly term from consultants for the Mayors’ Council because driver’s tax is less palatable." Leave the ten cent a litre billion dollars a year regional gas tax and stop there. No new drivers taxes. Removing bridge tolls and replacing it with a driver tax is fraudulent.

Corporate media still selling the gun control fraud

The Vancouver province is reporting that "The Liberal government is planning to introduce long-promised legislation Tuesday to strengthen controls on the sale, licensing and tracing of guns. The Liberals are bracing for political pushback from the Conservatives, as the bill would repeal some measures passed by the previous government."

This is offensively insane. In Metro Vancouver we have experienced a huge spike in illegal gun violence connected to the drug trade. None of those crimes are committed with legally obtained firearms. Blaze was under a firearm ban but was caught with firearms contrary to that ban. This never ending saga repeats itself over and over again. Criminals with lifetime firearm bans keep buying guns illegally because the bans are meaningless and have no consequences.

The guns the criminals are buying are coming in from the States. Some are from robberies. This new legislation will do absolutely nothing to prevent criminals from having guns. To claim that it will is a bold faced lie. Once again the government has created a manufactured emergency then removes civl liberty to pretend to fix the problem they created.

When the police watch the drugs coming out of Shakerz and provide drug dealers police protection in the DTES and on the Surrey Strip we know they are the root of the problem. Their criminal culpability has created the manufactured emergency to justify the pharmaceutic fraud that is burning tax dollars faster than we can borrow them.

If the police wanted to do something about illegal firearms, they would do sting operations purchasing illegal guns under cover. They refuse to do so because they want to perpetuate the problem so the government can continue to remove civl liberty from law biding citizens.

Our current system is not working. For the most part, in Canada only the criminals have guns. As I have said, I support he Swiss Model of gun control for obvious reasons.

Sarkozy detained in Gadhafi probe

The Canadian Press is reporting that "In the latest judicial setback for the former French president, Nicolas Sarkozy was placed in custody on Tuesday as part of an investigation that he received millions of euros in illegal campaign financing from the regime of the late Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi."

There's nothing illegal about making campaign contributions unless of course Sarkozy didn't report them which is obviously the case. After we helped Sarkozy murder Gadhafi under false pretense, Gadhafi's son claim his father made campaign contributions to Sarkozy which he denied. Now it appears that was true. It clearly falls within the realm of believability given the fact that Sarkozy was trying to convince the world we could trust Gadhafi with nuclear weapons because he wanted to sell him a French reactor.

As soon as Gadhafi decided to buy a nuclear reactor from Argentina instead of France, we helped France invade Libya and murder Gadhafi. That stain is on all of us.

This is the third funding scandal le chien sal has been caught in. The book “Sarko m’a tuer” (Sarko Killed Me) claims Nicolas Sarkozy received undeclared contributions from the heiress to the L’Oreal cosmetics fortune Liliane Bettencourt. Again political contributions aren't ilegal. Failing to declare them is. Before that was the Karachi affair in Pakistan.

Sarkozy was accused of getting political kickbacks from an arms deal with Pakistan. When the deal was cancelled and his kickbacks were cut off he was accused of helping organize a terrorist bombing in Pakistan that killed French engineers.

Interesting to note that the UN envoy says Gaddafi’s son can stand as election candidate which could happen the end of this year. That would be fair since NATO murdered his family.

Homeless family found dead in Van

ABC is reporting that "A homeless couple and their two young children, all dressed for bed, were found dead from suspected carbon monoxide poisoning in a parked van that had its windows covered with blankets and a shade to block out the light outside a Southern California strip mall, police said Friday. The case comes as Southern California grapples with a rise in homelessness amid soaring housing costs." Sound familiar? This tragedy happened in Los Angeles.

Housing is very expensive in any big city - LA, New York, London, Toronto and now Metro Vancouver. Homelessness and drug addiction are two separate issues. Here in Vancouver they become blurred because the police do nothing to stop the predatory drug dealers from exploiting the homeless. As we have said before, 50 % of drug addicts on the Surrey strip want to get treatment but can't. Other than Price Pro all the treatment centres in Surrey are just drug houses where addicts do drugs. If the police won't arrest drug dealers for selling drugs in public or at treatment centres, what good are they?

We see homeless here and meet people living in cars all the time. It's always heart wrenching to hear of families with young children homeless but the same goes for the elderly. When the elderly are homeless we are all diminished.

The City of Surrey held a survey about housing in Guildford. They were of course pushing high density towers their campaign contributors can get rich off of. A million dollars for a tiny condo in a huge tower at Surrey Central is insane. Low rise apartments and townhouses for young families are a much better fit for Guildford. Affordable housing is a genuine concern for everyone.

If you want to build more housing in Guildford, take your LRT and cram it up your a*s.

Vancouver gas fraud burns out of control

Another insane spike in the price of gas at the pumps leaves us with only one logical conclusion. It is time to break the oil monopoly and Nationalize our oil like Norway. Corporate monopolies are never a good thing. Global is reporting that 7 Canadian companies committed indictable offences in bread-price fixing scandal. Yet not a word is said about the criminality of price fixing within the oil industry which is far worse. The onlty time a corporate monopoly can be a good thing is when the consumers are shareholders in that monopoly. Norway is a successful model of this.

When John D. Rockefeller used hostile take overs to obtain a monopoly on the oil industry the US Supreme Court ordered the dissolution of Standard Oil Company, ruling it was in violation of the Sherman Antitrust Act. Letting ownership of Canada's oil rights be controlled by a monopoly was a bad idea. Letting a foreign country own our oil rights was insane. Letting a Communist dictatorship profit from our oil is just plain evil. Stephen Harper is more of a Communist than Pierre Elliot Trudeau ever was. Breaking Communist China's monopoly on the ownership of our oil would be in every Canadians best interest.

BC has oil reserves. We could quite feasibly set the example by nationalizing our oil like ICBC. We would keep all the Canadian contractors. We would just nationalize the ownership of the oil and take it back from Communist China. If Alberta wants to extort us we should simply buy our oil from Russia. We do have a port here. That is supply and demand in a free market.

Everyone likes to complain about ICBC but we need to see though the fraud the BC Liberals created. The BC Liberal government extracted a $1.3 billion dividend from ICBC to balance Christy Clark's fake fudgeit budget. Now they are saying ICBC needs to be restructured because they are $1.3 billion in debt. We're not that stupid. As Peter Rose said ICBC is breaking even. There is no emergency. There is just another fraud created by the BC Liberals.

On the issue of privatizing ICBC I have always been neutral. It you want to do it, do it. If you don't want to do it, don't. However, I will point out that comparing insurance prices in BC with Alberta is not a fair comparison. You can't compare urban areas with rural ares. A more realistic comparison would be with Toronto who have much higher car insurance rates than we do.

The private insurance companies in BC are struggling. Many of them are running deficits. In response what do they do? They dump high risk clients and raise their rates. ICBC is forced to insure the high risk clients. The high risk clients should pay higher rates not everyone else. Aside from the insurance fraud, lotus land has a lot of luxury vehicles. When those cars get in accidents it costs a lot more to fix them. Luxury vehicles should pay a higher rate not everyone else.

Consequently ICBC is not in as bad shape as the Neo Cons are trying to trick us into believing. The current price fixing within the oil industry is a much more urgent matter to confront. What we have now is NOT a free market. What Canada and Alberta could learn from Norway.

Fatal Shooting in Toronto

CBC is reporting that "A man in his 30s and a woman in her 20s are dead after a shooting at North York bowling alley on Saturday night. The man was pronounced dead at the scene while the woman died of her injuries in hospital later, Toronto police said in a news release on Sunday."

Global is reporting that the shooting took place inside PlayTime Bowl and Entertainment, located on Samor Road near Dufferin Street and Lawrence Avenue West, at around 10:10 p.m. on Saturday. "It’s not clear where exactly the shootings occurred, but the windows at the front entrance of the bowling alley were heavily damaged by gunfire." The bowling alley was full of families at the time of the shooting.

Update: The Canadian Press is reporting that the woman was a bystander in the shooting.
