Another Haney Hells Angel dead

Jose Gonzalez was a member of the Haney Hells Angels. On June 22, 1999, charges of extortion against East End member John Virgil Punko and Haney member Jose Gonzalez were dropped by the Crown after its key witness - the owner of a Richmond seafood company - refused to return from his native Japan to testify.

Gonzalez... that's a name found in El Salvador and in Honduras... In fact, that's the same last name as a guy who was charged in that recent large cocaine bust in Vancouver - Eduardo Gonzalez. No relation of course.

Well all of a sudden Jose's dead. He died a sudden death on October 1 2010. Some say it was a suicide. Others are skeptical. He's not the first Haney Hells Angel to have died a sudden death.

Ernie Ozolins, who had just left the Haney Hells Angels, was gunned down on June 2, 1997, along with girlfriend Lisa Chamberlain at Ozolins' s West Vancouver house. The murder remains unsolved.

Rick (Blackie) Burgess, Haney Hells Angel, vanished on Jan. 7, 2002. He was declared legally dead in 2004, but his disappearance has not been solved.

Ross Douglas McLellan, 59, a key member of the Hells Angels chapter in Haney, "died of natural causes" on an airline flight to Maui in December of 2006.

April 2007 Haney Hells Angel Vincenzo James Sanssalone of Maple Ridge was caught with 600 litres of GHB Date Rape Drug. Mark Figuereo, a Hells angels associate in Ontario was sentenced to 6 years in prison for selling date rape drug for the Hells Angels.

Ashley Machiskinic's murder

Wow. Ashley Machiskinic fell to her death from a hotel room in East Vancouver on September 15 2010. Friends, relatives and advocates are calling it a murder. They claim she was pushed out the window by drug dealers to send a message to other addicts who don't pay their debts.

She landed on her back which is suspicious. One witness claims the person threw her shoes out the window after she fell which would also imply she was thrown out.

A vigil was held for her yesterday and a few protesters occupied the VPD office and wouldn't leave because the police claimed it was a suicide and weren't investigating the case further like the Pickton murders. The protesters were arrested for trespassing.

Obviously people are upset. For good reason. Finally women's groups and First Nation groups are rallying together and speaking out. "Women get their heads shaved for a $30 drug debt, they're killed for $50," said Carol Martin of the Downtown East side Women's Centre. Gee what does VANDU say about that?

That sounds an awful lot like what's happening in Prince George where people will have fingers cut off for a drug debt and have been found chained in the basement of crack houses tortured for drug debts. The article claims that Honduran and Salvadoran dealers, doing a brisk trade Thursday just after "welfare Wednesday," boast of profits as high as $15,000 a month. Their collection methods, if they front a woman drugs that she uses or loses, can be brutal. However, we have learned that in Prince George it's not the Honduran and Salvadoran dealers that are doing the same thing. It's someone else.

"There's been a few women lately thrown out of windows, at the Balmoral, the Regent, women missing fingers, wearing wigs because their heads have been shaved," said Gladys Radek, organizer of the annual Walk 4 Justice in support of missing and murdered women in Vancouver and along the Highway of Tears.

Obviously the police can't do much if people are too afraid to testify. Yet closing the file and saying it was a suicide would be premature at this point. It clearly looks like Vancouver is having similar problems as Prince George with ruthless drug dealers and the suppliers of the two cities may well be connected. Let's face it we all know who supplies the crack for East Van.

Maurice Boucher made Gregory Wooley a member of the Rockers and used him to supply cocaine to the Syndicate or the Crips in Montreal on behalf of the Hells Angels.

Growing public outcry for the mistreatment of addicts is a good thing. The response of the New York model would be to stop letting them sell crack in public at Main and Hastings at the Carnage centre. That would be the first step. Getting people to provide more information to the police as to what's really going on would be another. Arrest the dealers not the addicts.



DTES activist knows of six women thrown out windows over drug debts in East Vancouver over the last two years.

This new article admits that "MacDougall said she doesn't know who killed Machiskinic, but people in the DTES are afraid to tell police investigating her death what they know." So common sense says that if people are afraid to tell police what they know, then we can't blame the police for not making an arrest.

Activists wanting to speak with Jim Chu is a good thing but we need to be leery of activists who just want to fight with the police for any reason they can find. The police aren't perfect but we can't blame them for everything either. We need to start reporting what these drug dealers are doing so arrests can be made. Reporting an abusive drug dealer to the police is not being a rat.

Jammin 4 Jay

Speaking of speeding and reckless driving, I met a guy with a wrecked car. He was speaking out against speeding. The car he had with him was totalled. The front end and the driver side was mangled. The driver had died in the accident. It was his son.

He has a fascinating story to tell. His son was speeding, lost control of his car on a hidden turn, scraped a pole then hit a tree. He was trapped in the car for quite some time before rescue workers were able to get him out. The father arrived at the scene and spoke with his son while they were trying to free him from the vehicle. He waited with his son at the hospital where he was bumped for emergency surgery because they wouldn't send a second anaesthesiologist and died waiting.

It is a powerful and tragic story. The father tours and speaks to high school students about the dangers of speeding. At the hospital the father asked his son if he had learned his lesson about speeding. His son said yes. He asked his son if he would come with him to speak to youth about the dangers of speeding and he said as soon as you wheel me out the front door I'll do it. Unfortunately, they wheeled him out the back door because he was dead. So the father has his sons ashes in the car when he speaks about the event. Very powerful. His sons runners are still trapped in the drivers compartment because they were unable to get them out.

Relating this to our recent event of reckless driving I'd have to say that there's a big difference between opening a motorcycle up on the freeway in a straightaway away from traffic and weaving in and out of traffic in a construction zone. The latter is just plain irresponsible because it puts others at risk. It's the kind of thing a young kid would do not a grown man. It doesn't display the wisdom and maturity of a seasoned biker. The other biker who lost his life and the life of his passenger last Saturday because he was glaring at a kid who didn't see him was also tragic. Those kinds of losses are senseless. It's not the kind of thing a grown man would brag about.

Anyways the father has a web site called Jammin4Jay and is well worth visiting. He's a powerful speaker and has an excellent presentation for schools and youth.

Bobby Cocks

Is this guy's name for real? OK I'm gonna bite my tongue on the name thing and raise two points. Here's a guy who finally looks like he could be a biker. Someone got all bent out of shape when I said Bob Green didn't look like a biker he looked like a businessman. They said he wears leather and has tattoos. I said having tattoos doesn't make you a biker. Bob Green looks like a businessman. Sure he could dress up like a biker but that doesn't make him one.

This other guy finally looks like he could be a biker. He doesn't look like the type of guy that would have a huge fairing or a pink princess seat on his bike. He looks like he might even ride a hard tail. Maybe a pan head or a shovel head. Something that drips with class. None of these brand new bikes that look like a Goldwing. I doubt he wears sneakers when he rides.

He looks like a noble old timer yet I can still see some of the boy in him. Part of him that idolizes the big red machine and covets respect and honour.



Someone thought the patch member in the photo was his son. If that's the case then I'd have to say good on him. Not for having a son in the Hells Angels but for having a son and being a father. The side rocker says nomads and the crest says Nor Cal. Surely that wouldn't be Northern California. It is a BC patch.

Nomads Northern California is where Otis Garret was from. They ran the love nest brothel in San Fransisco and murdered Margo Compton and her twin seven year old daughters. That is nothing to be proud of. That is like proudly wearing a patch that says I love Clifford Olsen.

Yet Bobby Cocks is using that lame I love Clifford Olsen photo for his profile picture on facebook.



So he's telling the world the throttlelockers are affiliated with the Hells Angels just like the Zig Zag Crew were. I wonder how much that endorsement costs each month? We know the Zig Zag crew had to pay dues to maintain the Hells Angels endorsement.



We were told that the Bobbsey twins collected dues from the Zig Zag crew and told them to get legitimate jobs if they were having a hard time paying up. We know that the Zig Zag crew sold crack for the Hells Angels and that the dues were for protection against rival drug dealers.

So what if the Throttlelockers don't sell drugs? What if they just want to ride and be affiliated? How much does that affiliation cost? When Vinnie toothless was caught with papers connecting the Hells Angels to the Jesters and the Outcasts, some argued that there was no real connection between the two groups. They were just asking permission from the Hells Angels to wear their logos.

Permission? Why does anyone need permission from the Hells Angels to wear their patch? Isn't that like giving a bully your lunch money in school? Either way it is clear the Throttlelockers are connected to the Hells Angels just like the Zig Zag crew were. Selling drugs is nothing to brag about. Neither is bragging about paying the Hells Angels for protection. That's kinda lame actually.

So what if the Throttlelockers don't sell drugs? Why on earth are they kissing Hells Angels ass? That's what looks so sad. Take away the Hells Angels and Bobby Cocks looks like a biker. Take away his Throttlelocker patch and he still looks like a biker. He has his honour and respect without having to buy it from the Hells Angels who lost it.



So what happens if the Throttlelockers stop paying dues to the Hells Angels? Will they lose their endorsement? Will the Hells Angels start hacking off fingers? The Throttlelockers can ride, camp and hang out without wearing any patch and without any permission from the Hells Angels. Groveling diminishes them.

Toronto Shopkeeper makes Citizens Arrest

Well here's another bizarre one. A Toronto Shopkeeper catches someone stealing from him and makes a citizens arrest. Simple enough. Well not exactly. The shopkeeper was charged with assault and unlawful confinement. I kid you not. This ranks right up with the joke about how if someone breaks into your home in Canada and they slip on something in the process, they can sue you for damages. You have just entered the Twilight Zone.

One media outlet reported that the concern was to make a citizen's arrest you have to catch someone in the act and the shop keeper caught the guy an hour later when he returned to the store. That's nonsense. To make a citizen's arrest you have to see the person commit the crime. If someone comes up to you and says that guy just stole my wallet, if you didn't see it, you can't make a citizen's arrest. There's no one hour golden time limit.

In Canada when you make a citizen's arrest you can only hold the person until the police arrive. You can't haul him off and drag him to the police station like you can in the US with the era of bounty hunters. That might be part of the problem. Seemingly the shopkeeper tied the guy up with rope and put him in the back of his car. I suppose this would depend on how far away the car was and if he detained the guy in the back seat of his car or his trunk.

Either way, charging this guy is insane. Can you imagine if he received a worse sentence than the person who stole from him? Wouldn't that make Canada a joke. Initially he was charged with assault with a weapon because he had box cutters in his possession but those charges were later dropped. If the guy pulled out the box cutters and started cutting him up that would be different but to say that someone at work who happens to have box cutters in his possession can't make a citizens arrest is nonsense.

Liberal MP Joe Volpe is seizing the opportunity to propose a bill that would make citizens arrest easier. Yet the law already exists and it can't get any easier than it is. You have to see the person commit the crime. You have to tell him you are making a citizen's arrest and tell him what he is being arrested for. You can then hold him until the police come not drag him anywhere.

You also have to charter him which simply means you have to say "You have the right to retain and instruct counsel without delay? Do you understand?" If they say no you simply explain that means when the police arrive you have the right to ask to speak with a lawyer without a long wait.

At least it's not as bad as the Alberta farmer who caught someone stealing and hunted him down with guns and shot him. Yet giving criminals more rights than law biding citizens is crazy.

Two more sad tales

Well the first one is sad as in pathetic and the other one is sad as in misguided. Take a look at the bowling shoes this guy is wearing and the full face helmet. He must be a striker for the Kingpin crew.

The other one is the sad news of two motorcyclists who lost their lives Saturday. The motorcycle was driving alongside a pickup truck, driven by a 17-year-old man, when the teen started to change lanes towards the bike.

The Mounties say the truck corrected and didn't end up changing lanes, although the 51-year-old motorcycle driver pulled up beside the pickup and glared at the teen inside. The news release says during this exchange, the motorcycle driver didn't notice a curve in the road and crashed. The motorcycle driver and his 40-year-old female passenger, who were both from Nanaimo and wearing beanie-style helmets, died later in hospital.

Here's the tragedy. Likely the kid didn't see the motorcycle in his blind spot but stopped when he did see it. So the big bad biker has to make a big deal about it and start glaring at him when he should have been watching the road and has now lost his life and the life of his passenger over it.

The whole concept of motorcycle awareness is so that cars check their blind spots and be more aware of motorcycles on the road. Yet when you have grown men center lining and passing on the right, that throws the whole concept of motorcycle safety and awareness out the window. As does this huge chip on the shoulder intimidation syndrome that cost this motorcyclist his life.

Glaring at someone and not seeing a turn in the road really isn't very bright. There was another story on Castanet in Kelowna about a woman who tapped on the horn when a Hells angel cut her off. He went ballistic glaring at her, writing her plate number and spitting on her car. That's the lingering image the public has when the Hells Angels comers to mind and it really isn't a pretty or proud one.

Hells Angels motorcycles impounded for speeding

Well this is priceless. Two Hells Angels were caught racing through a construction zone at speeds up to 160 kilometres per hour and had their bikes impounded under the new legislation. At first I thought the new legislation was a bit extreme. Getting your car impounded for going 70 KM/H in a park zone with no people around is extreme. Ticketed by all means but car impounded? I'm not sure if I'm comfortable with that.

But 160 KM/H in a construction zone? Well that's a bit different. I have to chuckle to see who it is that got caught under the new legislation. Sure the bullies and murderers are going to play the pathetic victim again but the bottom line is, excessive speeding then driving like an as*shole weaving in and out of traffic on a motorcycle isn't something to be proud of.

Neither is using Hells Angels colours to intimidate others to let them break the law. That's being an irresponsible bully and an as*hole all wrapped up into one. That's how young kids on imports ride not grown men on real motorcycles. Mind you it's hard to tell what they're riding. With those big a*s fairings they look more like Goldwings than Harleys.

The Hells Angels aren't murderers? Well who killed Juel Stanton? Who killed Percy Soluk? Who supplies the cocaine for the Vancouver gang war? These b*tches are worse than snitches. What's with that pink passenger seat anyways? No wonder someone pushed the bike over in the video. Which nomad was the pink princess seat for?

The Notwithstanding clause of the Charter of Rights

When discussing some of the outrageous decisions coming from the courts of late, a reader quoted Section 33 of the charter of rights - the Notwithstanding clause and said that Parliament doesn't have to listen to the courts so don't blame the judges. Kinda sounds like something Wally Oppal would say.

Basically the clause states that the federal or a provincial government can create a law notwithstanding a provision in the Charter of rights which in essence means it can violate the Charter of Rights with a five year time limit which may be reenacted.

The Charter of Rights was created to replace the Bill of Rights which the courts interpreted to be a mere guideline. The intent of the Charter of Rights was to make the Bill of Rights unalienable rights so to speak.

Many provinces were concerned at the time about how it would significantly shift political power from elected legislatures to appointed courts. The Notwithstanding clause was subsequently added to the Charter as a means of alleviating these provincial concerns.

Although I agree with the concerns about shifting power from elected government to appointed courts, the whole idea of creating a Charter of Rights then creating a loop hole saying parliament can suspend the Charter seems like a contradiction. Seemingly the Bill of Rights in the US has no such exemption.

Eileen Mohan referred to our sacred charter and how criminals are using it against us so that the rights of criminals have become more important than the rights of law biding citizens. Steve Brown referred to the constitutional obligation to provide public safety.

Basic rights are nonnegotiable. Free speech is one of those rights. Lawful assembly is another. Freedom of religion is one as is the freedom not to be discriminated against for race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex or age. The right to be secure against unreasonable search or seizure. The freedom from being arbitrarily imprisoned, the right to a fair trial, the need to be charged with an offence all are nonnegotiable rights just as mobility rights.

The concern is when a judge in a court of law misinterprets that charter to mean committing a criminal offense is a charter right. That is nonsense.

Section 467.13 of the code made it illegal for a member of a criminal organization to instruct someone else to commit an offence. Hells Angel defense lawyer Matthew Nathan successfully argued that section of the code was a violation of the charter. B.C. Supreme Court Justice Heather Holmes concluded the law was too broad and vague, and therefore violated the constitution. That is insane. That is the root of the problem.

We don't need a provision in the charter which lets the government violate the charter. We need a provision in law to uphold the charter when it is violated and misinterpreted by the courts. Freedom from cruel and unusual treatment or punishment is not negotiable. Do we really want to empower the government to suspend the laws banning torture because we have.

The double edged sword is simple. We want to protect citizens from giving governments too much power to violate basic human rights and we want to protect citizens from giving the courts too much power to violate collective rights and the constitutional obligation to provide public safety. Claiming it is a charter right to instruct someone to commit a crime on behalf of a criminal organization is insane.

Drug use is not a charter right. The court does not have the right to tell me I have to have a safe injection site in my neighbourhood and I have to pay for it with my tax dollars. The court does not have the right to tell me I have to have a safe inhalation site in my neighbourhood where people can smoke crack at the taxpayers expense. Our social programs would go bankrupt pretty fast not to mention our social values.

When the courts tell me human trafficking is a charter right then it's time to fix the courts not the charter. The charter of rights is fine. The judicial system is not. In the US judges are elected. Perhaps that is something we examine. Either way creating a mechanism to fire or replace bad judges who ignore public safety because big brother knows best is an immediate priority.

Hells Angels attended murdered B.C. teen's funeral

Well this is bizarre. I was going to write about the murder of Laura Szendrei because it seemed so random and tragic. She was a delta teen beaten to death in a park. Knowing I run a blog and web site about organized crime someone just sent me this new article claiming members of the Hells Angels attended the girl's funeral.

The police confirmed the Hells Angels attended the girl's funeral and said they were there to support Laura Szendrei's father. Brooks appeared uncomfortable with the question and refused to elaborate or say whether police are investigating any connection between the Hells Angels and the death.

Brooks told reporters that police have still not determined if the daylight attack on the teenager on Saturday was random or targeted. Sorry but I just find this bizarre simply because wherever the Hells Angels are, bad things happen.

Of course it's possible that the girls father had friends who were members of the Hells Angels and they simply wanted to show support for their friend. Yet somehow that just doesn't sit right. The Hells Angels are drug dealers deeply involved and primarily responsible for the Vancouver gang war. They have a history of threatening people's family. I wonder if Hells Angels attended Juel Stanton's funeral.

Drugs in Prison

Here's another thought. We know that Peter Adiwal, one of the last remaining old IS leaders, was caught selling drugs in prison and received no extra time for it. Well it appears Canada isn't the only place with drug problems in prison.

It appears that England is having a serious problem as well which is resulting in a huge amount of corruption within their prison guard system. This is something we also need to address.

We need prisons without hard drugs or sexual assaults and we need opportunities for inmates to work to earn early parole instead of mandatory statutory release. That would be more productive and help offset costs.

Red Lobsters - O'Brien, Brown and Mo

Two people linked to the Red Scorpion gang were charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking after a police raid on their Mission house. Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said his force conducted the investigation because the two - Michael O'Brien, 28, and Mohamed Amarhoun, 27 - were suspected of supplying drugs to the street-level crews in Abbotsford.

Gee if they were suspected of supplying drugs to street level dealers in Abbotsford, I wonder who was supplying them? Let's see, police found the same red lobster disco jacket in their home as was found in Jason William Brown's home the week before. Jason had ties to the East Van Hells Angels. So who was supplying them the cocaine? No big mystery there.



An Information to Obtain (ITO) search warrant showed that Amarhoun had links to Dennis Karbovanec, who pleaded guilty to killing three people in the Surrey Six slayings. The ITO stated it was Amarhoun that Karbovanec called when he was arrested in October 2008 by Abbotsford Police while wanted on a warrant out of Mission.

Karbovanec was stopped by police while driving his GMC Yukon near Matsqui Trail Park, and wanted the vehicle released to an associate. A search of the SUV uncovered a loaded handgun and silencer stashed in a hidden compartment in the vehicle.

So here we have the new Red Scorpions tied to the Hells Angels and to Dennis Karbovanec who was involved with the murder of the old Red Scorpion leadership that had beef with the Haney Hells Angels. Imagine that. Karbovanec was also with the Bacon brothers at Castle Fun Park with the new and improved Independent Soldiers.

On Thursday in Abbotsford provincial court, Amarhoun was sentenced to 15 months in jail, while O’Brien’s charges were stayed. Crown counsel does not reveal the reasons for staying charges. Hmmmm...

Oh and letting the Bacon disease freely walk past an open window where the UN were in a room behind an unlocked door was irresponsible and suspect.

When the Government becomes PIMP

I am told the truth hurts and abuse of sex trade workers does go on in indoor brothels as well. I'm glad to hear the Tories are appealing the Ontario decision. I'm not sure Iggy would. I've already talked about some of my concerns with giving courts power to over ride democratic laws in society. I'll just clarify the concerns with how they specifically relate to the Ontario court's decision to strike down existing anti prostitution laws.

Like every decision there are up sides and down sides. As the decision stated, prostitution itself wasn't illegal in Canada. Some laws were created making some kinds of public prostitution illegal. All anyone has to do is open up a copy of the Georgia Straight or read the personal adds of any newspaper to see that there currently exists a huge tolerance for private prostitution.

It's kind of like the difference between legalizing marijuana and decriminalizing it. Human nature takes a mile when given an inch. If we legalized pot, would that mean we have to offer urine samples at road blocks instead of breath tests because driving under the influence of pot is just as bad as driving under the influence of alcohol. Sometimes things are just better off left alone.

So what's the next step - legalize prostitution completely and tax it? I spoke with one sex trade worker who opposes legalization. Most cities already make people pay for escort licenses. In Kamloops they have to pay $3,000.00 a year for an escort license. Right now the city is the pimp. If we legalized prostitution would these escorts now have to pay income tax? Would that not make escorts a target for laundering drug money?

Many would rightfully argue that the government would be a nicer pimp than the Hells Angels would. Metaphorically speaking of course. Yet if prostitution was legalized that would not get rid of the Hells Angels control and involvement. It didn't in Amsterdam. In Amsterdam the city hall was upset that the Hells Angels used extortion and bully tactics to buy a brothel for far less than what it was worth.

I'm not concerned about what goes on between consenting adults. I am concerned about dealers and pimps who turn someone into an addict then force them to a life of prostitution and abuse. Especially minors. I say abuse because most street prostitutes are abused.

I remember driving around Surrey when my kids were younger and seeing all the prostitutes pretending to be hitchhikers I said I remember back in my day when hitch hikers were really hitch hikers.

Back in the day, things were different. In Vancouver you'd see the classy hooker around Richards. If you were a heterosexual John you had to be careful around Seymour Street as that was referred to as Tranny Alley. Back in the day, enforcers would beat up Johns for abusing or mistreating the ladies. That has certainly changed.

The East Van prostitutes were very different. They were drug addicted beaten and abused. It was really sad to see. No one in their right mind would want to pay money to have sex with them. Since the crack explosion, that's what happened to the Surrey prostitute. The drugs quickly took their toll and what used to be a pretty young girl quickly became a deformed shadow of what that young laddie used to be. They're scary.

That's why I get so upset when I hear court decisions that tell me I must have a safe injection site in my neighbourhood and I must pay for it with my tax doctors. Like hell I do. There isn't enough money for real hospitals and schools so there certainly isn't enough money to buy addicts drugs. No doctor in their right mind would prescribe alcohol for alcoholics yet in essence that is exactly what some are saying.

On another side note, I heard that Judge Walker in California just overturned Prop 8 and has been getting a lot of slack over it. I also heard that he just announced that he is resigning effective December 31 2010. I'm not going to get into the Prop 8 argument. I'm just concerned when a judge starts overstepping their boundaries and starts telling me what to believe and what to spend my tax dollars on.

As a reader has pointed out in my previous post the Notwithstanding Clause of section 33 of the Charter of Rights is well worth examining. I was not aware of that loop hole and am not sure I am comfortable with it. The government can violate the Charter of Rights if it says notwithstanding. I'm not sure that's a good thing. I think the better route would be to make judges publicly accountable by creating a provision were bad judges could be recalled or simply fired.

When courts have too much power

Well we all know that power tends to corrupt and how some say absolute power corrupts absolutely. Well I think the latest decision from an Ontario court is a perfect example of that. Now I know this is going to be controversial because I totally oppose violence against and exploitation of sex trade workers. Yet there are two points to make about this slippery slope.

In BC we have witnessed the other extreme, when courts have too little power to deal with gangs and organized crime. We see the limp noodle effect or the shocking extreme of a judge throwing out good evidence for no real reason. One threw out a case even though the police got a search warrant. They said the judge erred in giving them the search warrant. Another threw out a case because although the police got a search warrant and knocked on the front door before entering, they didn’t knock on the back door as well. I kid you not.

One poor cop was so worried about these wacko judges he got written permission to search a guy’s car. The judge even threw that case out because the cop did a pat down of the suspect which was in violation of his rights. Clearly we see judges in BC that are inept or corrupt. I don’t know why McLean’s ran an article about Quebec being the most corrupt province. Clearly BC is.

OK s here’s the deal. An Ontario court has ruled that anti prostitution laws are “not in accord with the principles of fundamental justice." This decision has completely stepped off the limb into the real of the Twilight zone. It’s one thing to hold a law up to the Constitution or the Charter of Rights. All laws are subject to that higher law but to say a law created by a democratically elected government violates fundamental justice? What the hell is that?

The common term in natural justice. Regardless the term fundamental justice is subjective. Who’s definition? Who holds the golden measuring stick? Would that definition change with each person we poll? A constitution or a Charter of Rights is clearly defined on paper. The subjective concept of fundamental justice as a measuring stick gives judges absolute power over a democratic society and that is not a good thing.

Before we discuss prostitution let’s look at NAFTA. Free trade is fine but giving courts power over elected governments is not a good thing. TILMA is the same idea but more extreme. It is a trade agreement that exists between BC and Alberta that some are trying to extend across the country.

The agreement makes it illegal for any level of government to make a law that would inhibit a Corporation’s ability to make a profit. I kid you not. The implications are frightening. What if the people say they want to create a law that protects the environment?

Say a province has a lot of environmentalists in it’s constituency and says they want to ban off shore drilling or oil sands cultivation within their jurisdiction. TILMA says a Corporation could then sure that government for creating a law that inhibits their ability to make a profit and win. That is absurd. The case isn’t even heard in a court of law it’s heard in some tribunal.

What if a province wants public health care? According to the trade agreement a private corporation could sue the government because public health care inhibits their ability to make a profit. Here we see a trade agreement and a tribunal over ride a democratic society’s rights.

They say prostitution is the oldest profession. What goes on between two consenting adults is really their business. Yet the effects of prostitution and drug addiction can make a serious impact on a community. To say that it is illegal for a community to ban prostitution is as absurd as saying it is illegal for a community to ban crack houses. Yet that is clearly what some lobbyists are trying to do.

I don’t think this would help reduce violence against sex trade workers any more than legalizing crack would see a reduction in organized crime. It would only make it more prevalent and much harder to prosecute.

The point is a democratic society has the right to create just laws to govern that society. Saying a community is legally bound to buy drug addicts needles and drugs is absurd. This law would only benefit organized crime and is the very reason it is being pushed. Upholding individual rights is a good thing. Expanding that to the erroneous claim that it is a human right to commit crime is nonsense.

If a community has democratically chosen to legalize prostitution or crack then that is their choice. Forcing that decision upon a democratic society against their will is lawlessness.

--------------------------------------------------------

Just as we thought, extremists are billing this as "emancipation day" also known as anarchy. Yet here's another wacko abusing the Charter of Rights once again. He runs a clothing optional nudist colony and was charged with public nudity when he and two other guys went through a drive through at Wendy's in their car naked. The teller was offended but they didn't care. They said their rights were more important than hers and they are counter suing under the Charter of Rights. They say laws baning public nudity violate a persons charter rights.

This is what I'm talking about. Wackos will take as much as we let them. Giving a judge power to override just laws in a democratic society is absolute lawlessness. It has nothing to do with justice whatsoever. One persons rights don't overrun another persons rights. No doubt the nudist case will be thrown out but imagine what would happen if some wacko judge said he's right. Laws banning public nudity violate his individual rights?

So when the dirty old pervert in a trench coat starts flashing old ladies or little girls, the police can't arrest him. That is insane. So when the three amigos pull up to the drive through at Wendy's naked in their car and start doing the pee wee Herman or when someone decides to go to a movie theatre naked and start doing the pee wee Herman in public, that's ok and if someone is offended by that, that's their problem. Nonsense.

We did have something similar in the Newton Wave pool in Surrey. The pool stopped renting out then pool to a nudist colony for them to use at their leisure so to speak. The nudists sued and said it was discrimination and they won. I'm certainly not swimming in a public pool after they had their orgy in it.

My concern with striking down the prostitution laws is the whole can of worms it opens. Like I said what consenting adults do behind closed doors is their business. But when you have open prostitution and open crack use that wrecks havoc on a community. No wacked out judge has the right to tell me I have to put up with that in my community.

That's the time to change the laws that govern the selection and retention of judges. It's the time we enact legislation that lets us fire bad judges because they clearly have too much power and it has clearly gone to their head. Legalization of prostitution will not stop the exploitation. It will only make in impossible to control.

Game Tight Soldiers and the Renegades

Well this is a startling new revelation. Kim Bolan went on a ride along with the gang squad in Prince George.

"Interestingly, we ran into the leader of the the largest gang in town, the Game Tight Soldiers. Steven King, who now lives in Penticton, rode up to the Renegade clubhouse on Fir Street on a Harley with Jason Hall, a full-patch member of the Renegades. He was wearing a Renegades vest with a bottom rocker."

We had been under the impression that the Game Tight Soldiers were rivals of the Hells Angels not associates. Now this new association shows how the Hells Angels continue to be not only actively involved in the drug trade but directly in charge of it.

Long ago the police have claimed that no one can buy or sell drugs in Prince George without the permission of the Hells Angels. The Renegades were the Hells Angels puppet club in charge of other groups. First it was the Crew. The Crew sold crack for the Hells Angels in Prince George under the direction of the Renegades. The crew got a lot of bad press for cutting off fingers for drug debts and many crossed over to the Independent Soldiers who have become another Hells Angels Puppet club.

Now we see the Hells Angels supply and are in charge of both the Game Tight Soldiers and the Independent Soldiers. If those two groups fight over the right to sell the drugs the Hells Angels are clearly the ones ultimately responsible for the violence.

BTW we've been getting a lot of feedback and rude comments about the name Game tight soldiers. Most think it's a really dumb name. Worse than the Red Lobsters.



I mean look at this guy's mannerisms and the way he wears his scarf. Doesn't that scream interior decorator? I mean like who still wears paisley? Paisley was out of style a long time ago. Why do we catch on to fads so late?

Lindsay Buziak's murder

There have been lots more shootings lately and it's hard to keep track of them all. That certainly doesn't mean we shouldn't make the time to look at the human loss this gang war is causing.

I thought this case was recent. I didn't realize it happened back in 2008 and the reason people are talking about it now is because it was recently on Dateline NBC.

Crime stoppers has a PSA about the murder. She was a Realtor in Sannich on Vancouver Island and was murdered while showing a home. Her father claims they have five suspects.

Police say there's no evidence to indicate Lindsay Buziak was involved with crime or drugs but it is clear she knew people who were.

In December 2007, Buziak visited her father in Calgary and while there met with old friends she grew up with. A month later, one of these men was arrested in connection with the largest cocaine bust in Alberta history. While Buziak was not an informant, it was possible she heard or saw something that put her life in danger, police said.

If you have any information about her murder please contact Crimestoppers at: 1 800 222-8477



Here's the twist. If the couple who called her up to see the home were contracted to murder her, will the people who hired them to commit the murder be charged as well as the people who committed the murder?

That is the ongoing problem. Convicting the people ordering the murders. Especially if it's an organization.

Gun Registry stays 153-151

Well the vote on Gun Registry was close: 153-151. Yet the bill to do away with long gun registry was defeated. Despite the result, Prime Minister Stephen Harper said the Tories will continue to work toward dismantling the registry.

"With the vote tonight its abolition is closer than it has ever been," Harper told reporters immediately after the vote. "The people of the regions of this country are never going to accept being treated like criminals and we will continue our efforts until this registry is finally abolished."

WTF? This is why we don't give either party a majority. If they had a majority they would keep steamrolling ahead regardless of the democratic will of the people. So what's Harper gonna do when the referendum says no to the HST? Steam roll ahead and stack the Senate like Brian Mulroney did? Oh Harper already did that, my bad.

Harper is determined to pit rural areas against urban. People in rural areas are allowed to have long guns and they are not treated like criminals for doing so. Unless they refuse to obey the law and register their long guns. The registry doesn't stop farmers from owning guns.

I will agree there are some valid concerns with gun registry. Hitler brought in gun registry before he disarmed the public and took over the country. The Liberals desire to do away with firearms licenses once gun registry has been established is very suspect.

Indeed most crimes occur with firearms that were not registered. Yet some do and more would if the registry was done away with. No one is going to commit a crime with a registered firearm, unless they plan on committing suicide. If some kid is going to shoot all his classmates and commit suicide, then he won't care if the gun is registered.

If an abusive husband shoots his wife and family then commits suicide, then he's not going to care if that gun is registered or not. Regardless of the registry, there currently are too many guns in the hands of criminals.

Three little piggies wrestle in court

Well the piglets jumped the UN in court. It was not a consensual fight. They escaped and started it. Not charging them with assault is shameful. We cater too much to these pigs. They are not welcome or respected in Surrey.

It was a pretty lame fight. The video was caught on security camera. There was another fight Jamie Bacon was caught on video right before he was arrested showing that the pig slapping in court was just an orchestrated show.

Jamie Bacon is a piece of garbage. He's a hillbilly from ABBOTSFORD. His brothers are Preps from ABBOTSFORD. The got shot up in Surrey and moved to Abby to get police protection. What a joke that was. 24 surveillance with TV monitoring. They are the queens of Kevlar. Who wears Kevlar to Castle Fun Park? How lame is that?

This whole case reeks of police corruption. Why would they get police protection in Abby and why would the police let them go and pick a fight in court? How did they know the UN were in that room? It has the appearance of corrupt prison guards turning a blind eye to prison rape.

Claiming it was a consensual fight and not pressing charges is totally lame. Letting spoilt brats strut around like they're somebody when they're not. They're hillbillies from Abbotsford. That is all.

Abbotsford shooting victim identified

The Integrated Homicide Investigation Team says the man gunned down yesterday morning in Abbotsford has been identified as 49 year old Thavone Narong. Narong was the father of Eddie Narong, who was one of the victims of the 'Surrey Six' slayings October 19th, 2007.

Well isn't that interesting. Like I said, how could Jamie Bacon be involved in the Surrey six murder and not his older two brothers? The old Red Scorpion Leadership had beef with the Haney Hells Angels. Now they are pals with the Independent Soldiers and the Hells Angels.

Gang Rape Pic online

Well this is just plain sick. I read a headline that said something about how the police were unable to block pictures of a rape being posted on Facebook. I find that hard to believe as that would clearly violate facebook's terms and conditions.

The latest headline is a former sex crime investigator says that posting or reposting pictures or videos of a 16 year old girl getting raped is a criminal offence. This story is horrible for two reasons. First for the actual act itself. Second for the fact that anyone would get off on reposting pictures of any rape not to mention one of a minor.

The sickening thing is that it's a local story. It happened right here in Vancouver. The 16 year old girl was given a "date rape" drug at some point during the party in Pitt Meadows, then taken out of the house and assaulted by between five and seven youths while several others watched and at least one took photos, police say.

The pictures were distributed through social networking sites and cellphones and one 16-year-old has been arrested and charged with production of child pornography.

Participating in any rape, especially a gang rape is deranged. (No offence to convicted armed rapist Mom Boucher) So is watching it or giving someone date rape drug. Selling date rape drug would be just as bad. Oh but wait, who are the largest distributors of date rape drug in Canada? The Hells Angels.

The Hells angels were involved in the two largest date rape drug busts in the country in Vancouver and Toronto.

Haney Hells Angel Vincenzo James Sanssalone of Maple Ridge was caught with 600 litres of GHB Date Rape Drug. Maple Ridge is pretty close to Pitt Meadows. I wonder who sold the date rape drug that was used in this teenage gang rape case?

Toronto Hells Angel associate Mark Figueireo was sentenced to six years in prison for being caught with 350 litres of date rape drug. The Toronto Star reported that Mark Figuereo had no previous criminal record but plead guilty to conspiring with six other men, five alleged to be Hells Angels, to traffic 600 litres of GHB worth $1.2 million. Police found 350 litres of the drug in his Toronto garage.

After the trial Mark Figuereo, 30, wept as he hugged his wife, sister and niece before he was lead away in handcuffs. This is another example of how the happily married family man was just a front. How would he have felt if someone used that drug to rape his wife, sister or niece? Selling date rape drug is deranged. Getting rich off selling it is very sad. Call it in. Report it.

Oh and let's not forget the Red Scorpion hiding out in the Kelowna retirement village who was also caught with GHB.

------------------------------------------------

One person has been arrested involved with the rape. Now for the other six and those who stood there and watched.

------------------------------------------------

Second arrest. Police are seeking more witnesses.
Come on people, call it in.

Abbotsford shooting an execution

Another targeted shooting in Abbotsford today. Although the number of shootings has gone down a bit in the Lower mainland, it's still hard to keep track of them all.

The Vancouver Sun reports that Abbotsford man gunned down in targeted attack. CTV reports that the victim has been identified and he is known to police as having a criminal lifestyle. The Vancouverite states that Abbotsford shooting an execution.

Somehow it feels like we've taken one step forward and two steps back. The victim was known to the police and has been identified. Yet the public still doesn't know who it is. Remember the Chris Mohan case? An innocent family lost an innocent son because they were unknowingly living next door to gang members that were known to the police but not known to the public.

The Abbotsford Police Department have promised us a web site identifying known gang members. Well at least the top 10 gang members. We're still waiting.

In the mean time we are still hearing about more targeted shootings and execution of people who are known to the police but not known to the public. Without getting into the legal liability of withholding that kind of information from the public, what about common decency? Have we learned anything from the Chris Mohan Ed Schellenberg case?

If the victim of a gang related shooting is known to the police, they should be known to the public. That is public safety.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Abbotford shooting victim identified.

Quebec Biker War

If the Quebec biker war was about the Hells Angels violent attempt to kill all their competition systematically and gain a monopoly over Montreal's illegal drug trade, then what are they now doing in British Columbia?

Killing rival gang members and independent drug dealers is one thing but what about people like Britney Irving and Geoff Meisner? What about the addicts in Prince George who have been tortured for drug debts? Who else have they killed in BC?

The Hells Angels have become the largest organized crime group in Canada. Rat out the real rats and make this world a better place to live.

Hells Angels were flying in coke from B.C.

So the Hells Angels were flying cocaine to Montreal from Vancouver. That was the case that involved one of their lawyers Louis D. Pasquin. Interesting to note that the local patch member involved was Salvatore Brunetti.

The pilot, Michael Russell, was reported to have connections to the Hells Angels in B.C. but none were named or charged. Again. Clearly the horrific judicial system in B.C. is affecting the rest of the country.

Interesting to note that Salvatore Brunetti was a member of the Rock Machine then changed sides to join the Hells Angels along with four others. Apparently "the fact that he was a former member of the Dark Circle convicted in 1996 of plotting to kill Nomads didn't prejudice his candidacy for the Hells Angels elite group."

One has to wonder if the implications in Gary McKeehan's fictional book called The Angels has merrit. The Blog about the book contains an interesting hypothesis about how Maurice "Mom" Boucher at one time paid his "rivals" in the Rock Machine to murder some of his own people who he saw as political threats to his leadership within the club. The author of the book claims to have received the information from an ex Rock Machine member.

Unproven hearsay but somewhat interesting nonetheless given the repeated method of operation we have observed coming from the Hells Angels collectively and Maurice Boucher individually. It makes ya kinda wonder how some of these rivals latter joined in his merry band afterwards.

Salvatore Brunetti was convicted of plotting to kill Nomad Normand Labelle. Normand Labelle had become critical of the Montreal chapter and decided to form a splinter group. Things that make ya go hmmmm... Lennoxville massacre.

Hells Angels' Lawyers, Judges, Border Guards and Airport Security

Interesting to note that former RCMP Officer Rob Sidhu is being represented by Criminal Defense lawyer Matthew Nathanson who has represented Hells Angels in the past.

Matt Nathanson helped Nanaimo Hells Angel prospect Lawrence Dean Bergstrom get off after he was found guilty of assaulting a police officer. In the appeal the judge claimed that although someone hit the police officer and although Bergstrom was present in the rowdy crowd, there "wasn't enough evidence to prove" Bergstrom was the one that hit the officer.

I suppose the officer who saw him hit him wasn't enough evidence for a BC judge to uphold the conviction. Kim Bolan reported that wasn't the first time Bergstrom's lawyer Matt Nathanson has won an appeal for the biker.

Matt Nathanson kinda looks like Owen Wilson. I wonder if he knows any drinking games. He is pretty funny.



In another case for the Hells Angels defence lawyer Matthew Nathanson, who successfully argued before Holmes, said wiping 476.13 "off the books" is an affirmation of people's rights because the legislation gave police unfair powers to gather information from wiretaps and other evidence while investigating organized crime.

B.C. Supreme Court Justice Heather Holmes concluded the law was too broad and vague, and therefore violated the constitution. Wait a minute, let's look at the law and it's clear intent and see if it has anything to do with the constitution.

It was the first time Section 467.13 of the code -- which makes it illegal for a member of a criminal organization to instruct someone else to commit an offence -- has been challenged in any Canadian court since it became law in January 2002.

How on earth does creating a law that says it's illegal for a member of a criminal organization to instruct someone else to commit a criminal offense violate the constitution? IT DOESN'T. Here we have another corrupt or inept B.C. Judge committing treason by violating the Charter of rights which states we believe in the supremacy of God and the rule of law.

This judge has struck down a just law and left us with lawlessness. Yes as individuals we have basic rights. It is not a charter right to commit a crime or to instruct someone else to commit a crime. That is absolutely insane.

The new news is that a former border guard has been granted bail after being accused of allowing $75 million of cocaine to cross into B.C. at his Aldergrove border post in 2007 and 2008 for about $60,000 Canadian a load. He was allegedly working for the same drug group as Rob Shannon and Devron Quast, which the U.S. Attorney said was run for the benefit of the Hells Angels in B.C.

Rob Shannon as we know was seen in Weird Hal Porteous' dumb rap video glorifying old men using Viagra and profiting from the sale of drugs. He was convicted of smuggling cocaine into Canada. US officials said he was smuggling the cocaine into Canada for the Hells Angels who he had been seen associating with and used to threaten his coaccused's grandmother.



There was another border guard named Mindi Niedermeiser who was fired because it was found out that she had been partying with the Hells Angels but she got her job back and that security risk still exists. Not to mention the fact that the Hells Angels have been accused of controlling the airports in Edmonton and Calgary.

Oh and let's not forget the Hells Angel lawyer in Montreal Louis D. Pasquin who was convicted of drug trafficking. In that case massive amounts of cocaine were shipped from Vancouver to Montreal. Pasquin was a well-known defender of bikers and mobsters from the Hells Angels to the Montreal Mafia’s notorious Cotroni clan.



We won't even mention the infamous Peter Leask. Much. But we will mention Jacques Leger. He was a lawyer who represented the Hells Angels in a trade mark dispute and was appointed to the Supreme Court by the Conservatives. That was way worse than what Maxime Bernier did.

Gun Registry Debate

Well the gun registry debate continues and another NDP MP withdraws their support to scrap the registry. This is another example of why I hate the Liberals collectively and Michael Ignatieff specifically.

The Reform Party talked about giving their members free votes. Here we have Jack Layton walking the walk not just talking the talk and gives his caucus free votes on an issue while the Liberals do nothing but complain.

Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff has ordered his MPs — including those who previously joined with the Conservatives — to unanimously oppose the bill put forward by Manitoba Conservative MP Candice Hoeppner, arguing that gun control is a matter of public safety.

“Mr. Layton’s refusal to unequivocally support the gun registry is playing right into Stephen Harper’s ideological crusade to see it scrapped,” Valeriote said. “If the gun registry gets scrapped it will be because Mr. Layton failed to show leadership."

This smear campaign is exactly what's wrong with the Liberals and Ignatieff and it shows why they chose someone like Ignatieff, a know torture supporter, to be their leader. Jack Layton IS showing leadership by giving his MPs a free vote on the bill. He's just not being a dictator like the Liberals would rather him be. Somewhat ironic for a leftist leader to be more democratic than the others isn't it?

My concern with gun registry is not that it exists. My concern with gun registry is what do the Liberals intend to do with it next? Their kind of "Leadership" is Big Brother knows best and is a dictatorship. If they want gun registry to ultimately stop issuing gun licenses all together, then I completely oppose that next step.

However, right now I do support gun registry. Not because I believe disarming the public and arming the criminals is a good thing because it's not. Not because I like giving the government absolute power over it's citizens because I don't. Not that I think rural farmers shouldn't be allowed to have riffles or shotguns on their farm because I think they should. I just don't think people in the city should be able to have unregistered rifles and shotguns. That would only make it easier for the gangs and make it impossible for the police to charge crack houses with stockpiles of firearms.

I don't like the idea of the government knowing where all the guns are so they can seize them. Yet I don't think everyone and their dog having access to rifles and shotguns in the city would be a good thing. If you do shoot a firearm in self defense in the city, you have to control the muzzle because the trajectory of that bullet goes pass or through the target and can hit or ricochet into Innocent people and children.

Can you imagine what would happen if these wacko Anarchy protesters who loot and vandalize things were all armed with rifles and shotguns? Controlling that disturbance would be very bloody.

What if I have road rage and I pull out a shot gun from my trunk. A pump action 12 gauge shotgun can be brutal from short range. It can blow your head off. I do think assault riffles should be restricted weapons.

The bottom line is I support the status quo. I think gun registry should exist but I clearly oppose the Liberals plan to take gun registry to the next step and stop issuing new firearm licenses which would result in the complete disarmament of the general public and I applaud Jack Layton for allowing his MP's free votes on the issue. I still think a Conservative NDP alliance is safer than the Liberals and Michael Ignatieff.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok the latest word is that Jack Layton claims the NDP has enough voes to save the registry. He is voting to save it but is giving his caucus the right to vote how they feel their constituents want them to vote.

"My members have asked that they have the opportunity to make whatever announcement they have to make in their own ridings in their own way, because it's really from listening to their own constituents that they've arrived at this conclusion,"

That was the Reform way. Free votes so elected representatives can vote on an issue how their constituents want them to vote on an issue.

Tory MP Candice Hoeppner tabled the bill, which passed second reading with the support of 12 New Democrats and eight Liberals. The Bloc Quebecois says it will vote against the bill next week, and Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff has ordered his caucus to do the same.

-------------------------------------------------------------

While I certainly don't agree with everything every police force says, Jim Chu stands out as someone who is consistently stable with proactive insight. He has publicly come out in support of the gun registry and gives examples how it has helped public safety on various occasions. Like I said, I support the status quo. I think the registry should stay but don't think the Liberals should take it to the next step and stop issuing new firearm licenses.

BTW it appears that Stephen Harper used to be for the gun registry back in the day. Shows the history of free votes.

Spike in Abbotsford break and enters

Well the spike in Abbotsford break and enters isn't very baffling. That's what happens when you let dealers sell crack in public. Addicts steal to support their habit.

Local police are "disappointed" that more residents who are witnessing suspicious activity aren't calling 911 or the non-emergency number (604-859-5225) to report break-and-enters in progress. Tell that to the Judicial review group in Aldergrove who started because prolific offenders got less time in jail the more offences they committed. The residents there are fed up with the theft from break and enters.

Even the VPD is frustrated with the courts refusal to deal with prolific offenders. Maybe Jamie B&E has left Aldergrove and is now working in Abbotsford.
