Don Lyons charged with beating his girlfriend

OK folks, here it is. The moment we’ve all been waiting for. The other day I’m reading the paper and I see an article about a gang member having his parole revoked because he has been charged with assaulting his girlfriend. Then I read it’s Don Lyons and I’m like whoa, I know that name. He’s from Kelowna.

He was convicted of trafficking cocaine for the Hells Angels along with Lester Jones the former Kelowna vice president. Which reinstalls my premise that the Independent solders work for the Hells Angels just like the new Red Scorpions do. After the Bacon brothers took them over and turned them into the Red Lobsters. Larry Amero was tied to Jonathon Bacon as well as Randy Naicker showing the Hells Angels control of both puppet clubs.

Larry Amero wasn’t acting on his own. He was on official business of the white rock chapter. That’s why they sent him on official business to Montreal. Now Larry Amero is with the surrey girl chapter. Which is rather amusing since he’s not from surrey he’s from Langley. He started taking steroid because he was beat up in high school. Walnut Grove. How lame is that?

BTW we all know Randy Jones from the Whiterock chapter, now overseeing the business for the Surrey Girl chapter, owned Tbarz for the club not his brother or mother. We all know the name change of that strip bar is a scam because they don’t want it seized by the US in that cross border indictment where Tbarz was considered the hub of a huge cross border drug ring tied to the Hells Angels.

So if Shakerz isn’t owned by Randy Jones and the Hells Angels any more what are those three Harleys doing parked out front right outside the front door last night where Tbarz had a sign saying bike parking only. If Bill Fordy really cared about crime in Surrey he’d check it out. But he doesn’t so he won’t. He just wants to posture for a political position like Fastbender over.

OK so back to Don Lyons. After doing time for drug trafficking on behalf of the Hells Angels, his parole gets revoked because he was charged with assaulting his girlfriend. Selling crack and now an accused woman beater. You cant get any lower than that.

What’s worse is that one of his family members is accused of trying to get the victim to change her story. Reminds me a lot of Donny McWhirter. Another fro ho woman beating loser connected to the Independent Soldiers in Kelowna. Maybe beating up your girlfriend and getting a stupid looking haircut are new initiation rituals for the group of dirt bags.

Here’s a fact for ya: “He who loves his wife, loves himself.” Guys who beat woman have a bad self image. They have no self respect despite their arrogant facade. That sad thing is, they can never build a healthy self image by mistreating their spouse. It’s a self defeating process that spirals down the toilet of misery.

Interesting to note in the Lester Jones drug conviction is that case was tied to three chapters of the Hells Angels. He was the former vice president of the Kelowna chapter drug trafficking in Winnipeg for the Calgary chapter. The police agent bought two kilos of cocaine off Lester in Calgary and left $72,000 in cash for the drugs at the Calgary clubhouse. I guess Randy Irons doesn’t sell crack but his clubhouse does.

Lester was convicted of being involved in the Winnipeg drug trafficking ring where Deli and Sean Wolfe were busted for selling crack through the Zig Zag crew. The Zig Zag crew would sell crack supplied by the Hells Angels and pay the Hells Angels protection money so they would protect them from rival drug dealers.

Since Lester was the former vice president of the Kelowna chapter, we all know who became vice president after him. It was David Giles, Skeletor himself. According to Neil Hall’s book Hell to Pay, Giles was the Hells Angel implicated in the Western wind bust where 2 and ½ tons of cocaine were seized. Neil Hall used to be a reporter for the Vancouver Sun and covered the E Pandora trial. He heard all the wiretap evidence in court. That was the case where Richard the crook Barszczewski got him off. Looks like the Hobo Clown is toast now finally.

Alberta Sheriff assault: No Charges No Justice

This just in. A blog reader sent this story in which really enforces the desperate situation the RCMP is in across the country and how our civil liberties are consistently under attack. This one is again from Alberta. Camrose just south east of Edmonton.

Global news is reporting that Simona Tibu claims she was seriously assaulted by a sheriff in a road side stop. At least he didn’t shoot her dead this time or in the leg like they did the guy from the man tracker show.

She claims an Alberta sheriff pulled her over for speeding. In BC, sheriffs don’t have the jurisdiction to pull people over for speeding. They transport prisoners and work in the courts.

She claims he was banging on her window and demanded to see her license and registration. She claims she said you can see them as soon as you stop banging on my window and if you don’t stop I’m going to film you on my cell phone. She then claims he became more enraged smashed the cell phone and then extensively assaulted her.

To her amazement when the RCMP officer showed up he said she was going to be charged with resisting arrest. Just like Rodney King. This has been a horrible week for police brutality in Alberta. It stains all of us because law enforcement is so important.

This sheriff needs to be sued civilly and charged criminally then if found guilty in a court of law not in a rogue RCMP officers opinion, he needs to be fired. This isn’t some wild crack head. This is a doctor. It's not just his word against hers. She has injuries that were not self inflicted. Resisting arrest for speeding doesn't make sense. He destroyed the evidence by smashing her cell phone. She didn't smash her own cell phone.

Right now we have a serious problem with police misconduct and police brutality that is a direct violation of the Charter of Rights. Once again the arrogance of the department shows they must be sued in court before they will even think about addressing the problem just like in the class action sexual harassment suit despite the many proven allegations. Rage and denial is all we’re getting from the federal government. That needs to change. In more ways than one. Through the democratic process and through the courts of law because like it or not the Charter of Rights is real. If police want to enforce the law they must be bound by it.

Clearly police misconduct does not make criminal behavior acceptable. It does not condone selling crack or stealing cars and we are to applaud the hard work of the good cops out there like the EDGE unit and the CFSEU that are really making a difference despite the shameful conduct of their coworkers. We do have lots of gang news to come.

This case really infuriates me. Even though it appears in Alberta sheriffs have been given jurisdiction for traffic offenses, this guy is a woman beater. Those injuries do not constitute reasonable force. He is a piece of garbage.

Here’s another one from the States. US cops laughing after tasering a kid for doing graffiti and killing him. Back in Alberta we have another case of a deaf mute in Red Dear suing a sheriff after he jumped him for signing he couldn’t understand his command.

In Winnipeg two former Manitoba sheriff's officers are facing another round of sex-related charges. These arrogant violations of civil liberty need to stop. I never made a big deal about the taser incident at the airport because everyone knows they made a mistake and lied to cover their ass. Yet all these new cases show how out of control police accountability really is.

Reexamining 9/11

One more for the road. Since Keith Alexander had the audacity to mention 9/11 to rationalize destroying the Constitution, then so will I because the obvious needs to be said. Many think 9/11 was an inside job. First there were the “left wing kooks” who thought it was another Operation Northwoods. Then we had the “Right wing conspiracy theorists” who started thinking it was another Operation Northwoods.

Now we have another large group emerge that think 9/11 was an inside job and they aren’t left wing kooks or right wing conspiracy theorists. They’re professionals in the field of controlled demolition. In the documentary 9/11 Explosive Evidence Experts Speak out we see a multitude of architects and engineers in the field that say the third tower and the twin towers all fell just like a controlled demolition.

They all collapsed into their own blueprint at freefall speed. The only way that can scientifically happen is if the load bearing beams are simultaneously blown out so the building falls straight down without meeting any resistance. They don’t just say we’re experts believe us. They show you numerous clips of controlled demolition and compare it to the fall of the three towers and say what does that look like to you? It sure looks like a controlled demolition to me.

The fact that they found thermite in the ruble is another important fact that would point to controlled demolition yet the way and speed the towers collapsed is all the evidence we really need. No planes hit the third tower. Never in history has a steel framed tower collapsed into it’s own blueprint at freefall speed due to heat and fire. That ridiculous claim is not scientific and defies every other model in existence.

Some claim that terrorists went in before hand and planted explosives on the load bearing beams. Obviously they did. That would have required further planning and opens Pandora’s box as to who it was that planted those explosives before hand.

This is why we need to examine all the evidence of 9/11 and all the suspects without covering our eyes and ears burying our heads in the sand. Operation Northwoods was real. They implemented that plan against the USS Liberty when President Johnston recalled the air support to help repel that attack. That historical treason needs to be addressed. Especially if we are going to use false flag attacks just like Hitler did to throw away the constitution and civil liberty.

Although the hecklers didn’t believe him, Keith Alexander claims the NSA is trying to protect America and Americans. But what is America? In the movie Shake Hands with the Devil, the Canadian General is speaking with a local leader in Rwanda who says exactly that. The leader tells him I’m trying to protect Rwanda. The General then responds with and what is Rwanda? Those mountains? Those trees? How can you protect Rwanda without protecting it’s people?

Likewise, how can we protect America without protecting Americans and the constitution? How can we protect freedom by abolishing it and removing civil liberty? It just doesn’t make sense. It is a con that George Lucas described well in his Star Wars Saga.

The first three episodes of Star Wars, which were released after the second three episodes, showed us how Darth Vader became Darth Vader and showed us how the evil emperor took over a free republic and enslaved it into his own galactic empire. A slimy senator used a false flag attack to become chancellor just like Hitler then used it to suspend the free republic to address the false flag attack. That is how he destroyed a free republic. That is exactly what we have to be mindful of now if we plan on protecting our free Republic and the people within it.

James Connolly: Where Left meets Right

Many years ago when I was in West Belfast, a friend gave me a pin of James Connolly. Not knowing the local history, I thanked her sincerely and said who is that? She smiled and with a twinkle in her eye said, he was an Irish rebel. He was a Communist. I thoughtfully nodded, cherishing the gift and resolved to read up on this Irish rebel.

Aside from being a Socialist, James Connolly was one of the signers of the Irish Proclamation which was very similar to the American Declaration of Independence promising to protect equality, free speech, freedom of religion and civil liberty. Most would see that as a direct contradiction to his claim of being a Socialist.

It reminds me of a friend who used to think I was a Communist for the same reason I thought he wasn’t – we both believed in democracy and free speech. I thought that was somewhat ironic.

On another occasion I spoke with a National leader of a Canadian Trade Union who also claimed to be a Communist. Knowing my passion for democracy and my concerns about the revolution in Cuba he said to me, the Communists in Russia, China and Eastern Europe call themselves Communists but they aren’t really Communists. I said to him yeah, well what the hell are they because that is what Communism is. I was referring to the oppressive slavery that resulted in the death camps and the machine guns pointed inward on the East side of the Berlin Wall.

My father used to say that Communism works in theory but not in practice. Clearly wherever Communism has been portrayed, civil liberty has been lost and it has become the oppressive slave driver it originally set out to abolish.

In my opinion, James Connolly’s pledge is the reason why Communism never works outside a Free Republic. If you want to oppose slavery then you protect civil liberty. If you want to promote collective rights, you do so by protecting individual rights. The end does not justify the means. If you want to create a democratic socialist sate, you need to protect democracy. It's that simple.

My union friend used to claim that Cuba was the best model of Communism we have. I shook my head in amazement. No it’s not. Cuba has political prisoners of conscience. Sure it’s watered down Communism in that people are allowed to have a religion, but they only allow one political party on the ballot and you can’t be a member of that political party and run for a position in government if you have a religious affiliation. That is discrimination and is not a democracy.

In response I said the best model of Socialism we have is the Kibbutz movement in Israel where people are free to come and go as they please. It is based on a democratic system. In my opinion that is the only condition where socialism can properly exist. Where people are free to join or leave and democracy is protected by law.

When push comes to shove I agree with the Beatles in their song Revolution. You say you want a revolution Well, you know We all want to change the world But when you talk about destruction Don't you know that you can count me out. You ask me for a contribution But if you want money For people with minds that hate All I can tell is brother you have to wait. But if you go carrying pictures of chairman Mao You ain't going to make it with anyone any how.

China Red Square, East Berlin and Stalin’s death camps are all what I oppose. Yet James Connolly’s free republic I completely support. If he wants to create nationalized oil and public banks within a free republic based on democracy and the will of the people then have at it. Just don’t start denying private ownership of land and forcing public ownership of everything without making it publically accountable. Otherwise you just go from one rich elite to another.

In the famous musical Fiddler on the Roof, the young university student that wanted to marry the guy’s daughter appears to be involved in the demonstrations that gave rise to the Communist Revolution in Russia. Which has to make you wonder how many Jews supported that revolution. Not just the Rothschild’s, the average worker. Somewhat ironic since after Lenin high jacked the trade union movement in Russia he executed the striking trade unionists and killed more Jews than Hitler. The families of the striking trade unionists were too afraid to even collect their dead. Historically people have been conned to support a revolution opposing one great evil only to be taken over by a worse evil. That is why we need to protect civil liberty and a free Republic.

Defending the Constitution and the Charter of Rights

Lots more news to catch up on. The breaking news is the fact that Don Lyons just had his bail revoked because he has been accused of assaulting his girlfriend. Big surprise there. That and the Edmonton cocaine bust tied to the Hells Angels that the local media hasn’t seemed to have picked up on yet. Before I get down and dirty on the new news I wanted to make two philosophical posts because they are important and relevant.

Even though most of us are rightly concerned about the drug related violence that is plaguing our community, none of that is reason to give up our civil liberty. Especially when we see who it is that’s ultimately the driving force behind the drug related violence. I’m not talking about the Hells Angels this time. I’m talking even further up the food chain. We all know locally the drug violence leads either to the Hells Angels or a drug dealing rival they are fighting with. I’m talking about who benefits from their business. The ones that benefited from Freeway Ricky’s business in LA without his knowledge.

First I want to address the Constitution. The US Constitution has been a blue print for democracy around the world. The Irish Proclamation is similar to the US Declaration of Independence. The Canadian Charter of Rights is very similar to the US Bill of Rights. All of these important documents need to be preserved and protected because they are currently under attack.

Stephen Harper is an enemy of the Charter of Rights. At first I thought he supported those rights but just didn’t like the fact that it was Pierre Trudeau, his arch enemy, that finally entrenched it into law that would bind subsequent governments. Now I realize Harper's hate of the charter goes much deeper than that.

One article even had the audacity to claim Harper opposed the Charter of Rights because Quebec never signed on to it. What a joke that is. Harper doesn’t give a rat’s ass about Quebec. Saying he doesn’t support the Charter because Quebec never signed the constitution is absurd. Quebec didn’t want to be a part of England and swear allegiance to the crown. They totally support the civil liberties in the Charter of Rights. Ever heard of the French Revolution?

The French Revolution was founded on three principles: Liberty, Equality and Fraternity. In fact, the real motto was Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité ou la Mort. Liberty or death so to speak. Just like Thomas Paine's declaration.

People try and translate Fraternity to something else trying to make it more politically correct but in doing so it loses in the translation. The French symbol for Liberty is a woman. Fraternity does not exclude women. It’s a bond within a common struggle. Some people say Solidarity now but for many that term raises the hair on the back of their necks because of it’s socialist leanings and often for it’s political hypocrisy by those who shout the word the loudest. I prefer the term Fraternity which in no means excludes woman.

My point is, Quebecors clearly support the principles within the Charter of Rights. It’s England and the crown they have a problem with not liberty. The Statue of Liberty was a gift from France.

Stephen Harper opposes the Charter of Rights because it protects civil liberty. That is what he has a problem with it and that is why he continues to violate it on a regular basis. Sadly he isn’t the only one. Justin Trudeau had the audacity to claim that the NDP were lukewarm on the charter when he voted with Harper for a bill that violated the Charter and was illegal. It was the NDP, the Bloc and the Green Party that voted to defend the Charter not Justin Trudeau shockingly enough.

Likewise the Constitution in the US is under serious attack by the same government officials who swore and oath to defend it. One of the most offensive things Keith Alexander said when he was being heckled in Las Vegas, other than pretending he wasn’t a liar was his pretending he supported the constitution. That was another bold faced lie that needs to be addressed.

One of the hecklers said Read the Constitution. He answered with I have, you should. That was absurd and offensive. The Constitution is all about protecting civil liberty. It’s all about protection from unnecessary searches and seizures. It’s all about the right to a fair trial, to legal representation. Someone has to be charged with an offence before they can be arrested. These are the fundamental rights they are violating on a daily basis. That needs to be addressed. We need to be familiar with the civil liberties protected by the Constitution and the Charter of Rights so the next time some snake oil salesman like Keith Alexander or Sarah Palin pretends to support the Constitution we will see through their lies and know otherwise.

Order a free copy of the Canadian Charter of Rights

You can order a free copy of the Canadian Charter of Rights from the Human Rights Department of Canadian Heritage by filling out this form and E-mailing it to droits-rights@pch.gc.ca of by faxing it to: 819 994 5252. The Charter is available in two sizes, in poster (18" x 23") or certificate (11" x 14") size. There is no charge. Every home in Canada should have one on their wall. Stephen Harper won't celebrate the 30th anniversary of the charter but we can and should.

NSA heckled for lying and violating the constitution

The Vancouver Province is reporting that Keith Alexander, the Director of the NSA was heckled at a conference in Las Vegas which clearly shows you can’t fool all of the people all of the time. The NSA is an enemy of the constitution. Keith Alexander is a liar and a traitor.

Operation Northwoods had nothing to do with protecting Americans. Recalling the air support for the USS Liberty had nothing to do with protecting Americans. Giving a drug addict $250,000 and a new BMW to fire a missile at American soldiers has nothing to do with protecting Americans. They are liars and traitors. Not to mention thieves who steal billions of tax dollars every year from their budget and refuse to give a public accounting of where that stolen money went. The NSA, the CIA and all the intelligence agencies within the Five Eyes alliance are criminals who are actively trying to destroy the constitution.

I sincerely believe that the coming civil war that Canadians and Americans will face will not be about left versus right nor will it be about terrorism. It will be about those who support a free republic and those who do not. Keith Alexander does not. Stephen Harper does not. Harper created a whole new agency called the Communications Security Establishment Canada who are solely mandated to violate the Charter of Rights. Harper gave them permission to exchange information with foreign “partners” who gathered information from torture just like Adolf Hitler.

Thankfully, the people are starting to think. Finally. So tell me, what shall we die for Elizabeth? Brethren, hoist the colours - The Constitution and the Charter of Rights. That is what we must defend. That is what this is about. Edward Snowden is a hero. Keith Alexander is not.



After shouting out BS and saying we don’t trust you, one heckler said, you lied to congress why should we believe what you are saying now? Alexander responds with I never lied to congress. Then the heckler provides the name and date of the NSA representative that did in fact lie to congress and Alexander says thanks for that. If that NSA representative lied to congress and Alexander was the director of the NSA at the time, then Alexander was the one that told him to lie to congress.

Research ship sets sail to study Pacific dead zone

A research ship funded by a Google executive has set sail from San Francisco to study a dead zone in the Pacific Ocean off Vancouver Island. Dead zones in the ocean are a growing problem where areas of low-oxygen water are expanding because of pollution and climate change. Since we get most of our oxygen from the ocean, this needs to be addressed.

UVic has a deep sea web cam in place to study the ocean floor called VENUS: Victoria Experimental Network Under the Sea. Now there appears to be a network of web cams in place called Neptune. The Venus web cam spotted an octopus that entered the dead zone but left to find an area with more oxygen.

Fake threat closes US Embassies

Last night when I was watching a movie on TV they interrupted the movie for an important news break. They claimed a serious but vague terrorist threat has resulted in the closure of all the US embassies in Muslim countries around the world. It was so ridiculous I had to turn it off because I couldn’t stomach it any longer.

The Main Stream Media has become absolutely absurd. The fictional drama is completely out of control. Back in the day we used to have something called investigative journalism. Now because of time and budget restraints most media outlets just reprint any press release any intelligence agency sends them despite the fact that the intelligence agencies have been caught intentionally giving the press false information in the past. Now if you dare speak out against the official version like Dan Rather, you run the risk of losing your job. The press is no longer free.

I am not saying Americans are bad and terrorism is good. I’m saying the exact opposite. Canadians used to have a reputation for being polite while Americans used to have a reputation for being rude and arrogant. Times are changing. Many Canadians are becoming rich yuppies who are rude and arrogant. Many Americans are humble and friendly. The old stereotypes no longer apply.

Killing innocent civilians is a despicable act. For example, the Air India bombing was a horrible event and we should rightfully shun any group or organization that condones or promotes any kind of terrorist activity. That would begin with CSIS. CSIS was directly involved in the Air India bombing and need to be charged and tried for murder since their handler helped plan the attack and provided the explosives. Blindly reprinting every press release CSIS sends out now destroys any credibility the media ever hoped of having.

Bill Tieleman pointed out James Cromitie was a low-level ex-drug dealer who converted to Islam. A well-paid FBI informant befriended the Walmart worker and promised him $250,000 and a new BMW car to fire Stinger surface-to-air missiles at U.S. military planes and plant bombs at Jewish targets in New York. That goes way beyond entrapment. You tell any crack head you will give them $250,000 and a new car if they point a weapon you give them at anyone, they will not hesitate in doing so. That doesn’t mean every crack head is a terrorist. It means you just created one.

The Boston Marathon bombing was bad enough. Police claimed the suspects were throwing pressure cooker bombs at them as they tried to escape. Really? How many pressure cooker bombs can you fit into a back pack? Pressure cookers are normally the size of a slow cooker. You can’t throw a slow cooker filled with nails and explosives very far. That’s like throwing a shot put at your enemy. It’s not going to go very far before it explodes.

This most recent false flag drama is clearly a distraction. What we need to ask ourselves is what are they trying to distract us from? Two things. They are trying to distract us from the reality that the anti terrorist budget keeps losing billions of dollars every year. I’m not talking about wasting billions of dollars on anti terrorism. I’m talking about them losing that much from their budget not knowing or at least not telling what it was spent on.

The other thing they are trying to distract us from is Obama’s Operation Fast and Furious. Previously I said Nixon would never have been allowed to hide Watergate under executive privilege. In fact he tried. The Supreme Court said that executive privilege did not extend to hiding criminal activity. The agency's arms dealing and drug trafficking in Operation Fast and Furious is a huge concern that we need to address. Simply because it was the exact same thing they did in Operation Wide Receiver. It is the exact same thing they did out of Mena, Arkansas. Iran contra never stopped. That is what we need to address. Not perpetuating fear and hate to hide the agency’s drug trafficking and arms dealing.

Especially when we want to empower those arms dealing drug traffickers to throw away the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. In New York the police visited a woman who was researching pressure cookers online. How did they know she was researching pressure cookers online? They were monitoring everyone in violation of the Fourth Amendment. The constitution protects the freedom of religion. A Saudi student in Michigan was interrogated by the FBI after he was seen carrying a pressure cooker filled with rice and meat to a friend’s house for dinner. We need to shun all kinds of terrorism and all kinds of hate and intolerance. We need to protect civil liberty.

“Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.” Ben Franklin.

The Kelowna Summer Jam Revisited

Well it looks like the new police chief in Kelowna is keeping his word about keeping the heat on gang members in town this summer. The Kelowna Now is reporting that Police Strip Car In Front of City Hall And Find 'Significant" Amount of Drugs.

The RCMP had received a complaint regarding a custom BMW about suspected drug activity. Members of the CFSEU located the vehicle outside City Hall on Friday and arrested the occupants for possession of a controlled substance. After searching the vehicle, a significant amount of drugs were discovered. Three cheers for the CFSEU and for the concerned citizens of Kelowna who called it in. Now that’s what I’m talking about.

We remember last summer the police did an amazing job busting up a major drug ring and car theft ring tied to the Hells Angels in Kelowna. Only rats sell crack and steal cars. If ya get jammed up don’t mention my name. B*tch.

Pierre Lemaitre found dead

The National Posted reported that Pierre Lemaitre, a high-profile Mountie who was a spokesman for the RCMP following the Taser death of Robert Dziekanski was found dead in his Abbotsford home last Monday. Still no official word on his cause of death.

Sorry to say but the fact that his cause of death has still not been released is very suspicious. Especially since his death was shortly after Const. Bill Bentley, one of the four officers charged, was shockingly found not guilty of perjury after he was facing a charge that he lied at a public inquiry into Dziekanski’s death.



The Abbotsford News reported that Lemaitre held a press conference on Oct. 14, 2007 to address the incident that had occurred earlier that day in which Dziekanski died after being Tasered by police. Video footage shot by a witness contradicted much of what was relayed to the media. Lemaitre – and the RCMP as a whole – were criticized for inaccuracies in their reports, with some saying they had deliberately misled the public.

Lemaitre testified in April 2009 at the Braidwood public inquiry into Dziekanski's death. Inquiry commissioner Thomas Braidwood concluded in his final report that Lemaitre had not intentionally disclosed inaccurate information about Dziekanski's death and that he was later prevented by a superior from correcting the public record.

There was another taser fatality this weekend in Alberta. Recently in Chicago a 95 year old vet died after he was taserd by police then shot in the stomach with a bean bag fired out of a shot gun. This is why letting any police officers operate in Canada without any legal accountability is a huge concern for everyone. Everyone needs to be accountable to the law. Civil liberty is very important.



Two cases this week of RCMP officers in Alberta firing on unarmed suspects in roadside stops.

Bioluminescence

I took the bike out to Whitecliff tonight for the sunset. It’s very peaceful. Sometimes we all need a break from the cesspool of greed and violence tied to the drug trade. All eyes are on Edmonton right now with the latest cocaine bust there. The EDGE unit is doing an amazing job at restoring public confidence in law enforcement after the EPS had such a bad reputation of sharing intel with the Hells Angels. Let’s hope CSIS or the RCMP don’t pull the plug on their operation since they are doing such a great job. We’ve seen that happen before. I remember Chuck Pillon.

All this talk about crack has got me shaking my head. Crack was big in the States back in the /80’s. Why on earth are we still banging our head against the wall feeding that insane plague? Let’s remember who Gary Webb said was responsible for the US crack epidemic in the /80’s. Me thinks it’s the same clowns responsible for our present crack epidemic here in Canada.

Enjoying a peaceful sunset at the beach after all this talk about crack violence made me think of that scene from Star Wars when a guy tries to sell Obiwan death sticks at a bar. He uses a Jedi mind trick on him and says you don’t want to sell me death sticks. You want to go home and rethink your miserable life. Then the guy gets up and says exactly that before leaving.

These guys do need to rethink their miserable lives. As well as the misery they profit from. Shooting someone because you want a monopoly on the crack trade is pure greed. Cutting crack with Levamisole so you can stretch it and make more money while you give people flesh eating disease is pure greed. That has absolutely nothing to do with riding motorcycles.

I saw a group of divers heading out to the water after sunset. Turns out they weren’t divers they were swimmers with glow sticks and headlamps wanting to go for a swim and see the bioluminescence. Plankton that glow in the dark. That’s a whole new world I haven’t explored yet. There is so much out there you can’t find in a crack pipe or a bottle of Drano.

Police seize 28 kilos of cocaine in Edmonton

The Edmonton journal is reporting that the Edmonton Drug and Gang Enforcement (EDGE) unit seized 28 kilos of cocaine from an apartment complex in Edmonton last Friday. Police say the apartment was being used as a cocaine conversion lab. Inside, they also found 10.5 kilograms of a chemical agent used to convert powder cocaine to crack.

Jesse James Langevin, 27, of Edmonton, and Vincent Louie, 42, of Vancouver, have each been charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking and cocaine conversion. It would be worth finding out what the cutting agent was. Was it Levamisole again? Handing out free crack pipes so people don’t catch a cold while getting flesh eating disease is insane.

In an unrelated investigation that same day, EDGE executed a search warrant at a residence in the area of 105th Avenue and 117th Street, arresting three people and seizing a loaded 9-mm handgun with a silencer, a loaded magazine, a bulletproof vest, radio-jamming devices, three homemade GPS tracking devices and $31,700 in cash.



Cardoso said the handguns were later discovered to have been stolen from B.C. and Saskatchewan. Tevya Wesley Thickson, 22, Awet Mehari Ghebre, 23, and Francheska Quach, 26, face a total of more than two dozen weapons and drug-related charges. Guns and radio-jamming devices spells grow rips. Either that or they are talking over drug labs for the red and white like Uncle Joe in Salmon Arm.

In June Daniel Huddlestone, 34, and Cameron Monkman, 28, from a Hells Angels puppet club called the Malicious Crew were charged with attempted murder using a firearm, robbery with a firearm, aggravated assault and other weapons offences with regards to the Sylvan Lake shooting outside Red Deer.

Police said the latest wave of Hells Angel rivals in Alberta has been more persistent than previous attempts to set up shop in the province. The Calgary Herald is quoting the fact that Alex Caine claimed the Outlaws would be using Alberta as a stepping stone to challenge the Hells Angels in BC in his recent book. His next one about the Hells Angels should be out this fall.



Speaking of Jesse James Langevin, a blog reader from Edmonton sent me some pictures of him from his facebook. This one is him kissing his pal Dez Osborn. There are a lot of pictures of him and Dez. I just don’t get that man love. It sure doesn’t seem very manly.



Sadly that appears ot be one of his only friends.



Dez likes to brag about his support of the Edmonton Hells Angels. That’s what 81 51 means. 81 is HA for Hells Angels while 51 is EA for Edmonton Angels. The Hells Angels have a chapter in Westridge. That’s why he posted a red bandana with the words Support Westridge on it.



His current cover photo is a support shirt that says established 1997. That’s when the Hells Angels started chapters in Edmonton and Calgary.



Red and White 15th would be the 15th anniversary for the Hells Angels in Edmonton. I guess it’s pretty obvious who was supplying the cocaine in this bust.



One blog reader pointed out that they use sodium bicarbonate to make crack – baking soda. Yet the police said 10.5 kilos of the powder chemical agent used to make crack was valued at $52,000. I don’t think 10.5 kilos of baking soda costs that much. That leads me to believe it was a cutting agent used to stretch crack not make crack. That would lead me to believe it was in fact Levamisole since that is the most common cutting agent used and the price value would fit.

Update: The Edmonton Journal is reporting that the Edmonton Drug and Gang Enforcement Unit announced more arrests today. Lana Michelle Davies, 30, is facing charges of possession and trafficking. Police seized several firearms - including three handguns, two rifles and one sawed-off shotgun - as well as drugs, including 10 litres of gamma-Hydroxybutyrate (GHB), crystal meth, mushrooms and marijuana. Word is the red and white in Edmonton are scrambling for cover.

Police are now searching for William Stewart Culver, 30, who’s wanted on warrants for four counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking, as well as 29 various firearms charges. Culver is believed to be armed and dangerous, and should not be approached.



Update: I forgot to mention that William Culver turned himself in. I guess he isn't high enough up the food chain for them to hide him out in Argentina. He's no Surrey girl. He looks hard core. No Merle Norman eyebrows there. He looks like he'd shoot your ass dead without flinching.

Double shooting in Surrey

OK OK… back to the gang war. Two blog readers sent in links to the Twitter feed about police on scene in another Surrey Shooting at 126th Street and 59th avenue off Highway number 10 so I went over to get some pictures. Not that I don’t have anything better to do on the long weekend.

Global was on scene and is reporting that two male victims are in hospital after police received reports of gunfire exchanged between two cars in the 5800-block of 126th Street at around 2:45 PM. One of the males is in critical condition and the other suffered minor injuries.

Mounties said they are looking for two vehicles, a gold car and a dark-coloured minivan. Yet CTV is reporting that Witnesses described the vehicles as a gold-coloured compact car and a dark-coloured foreign sports car. Not much to go on. Didn’t anyone get a plate number? We’ve really gotta start doing that.

CBC is reporting that Surrey Memorial hospital emergency was in lockdown and closed to visitors after the two shooting victims turned up at the hospital. There were 17 yellow markers on the road. Assuming those represent shell casings. It appears several shots were exchanged.



Locals said that a lot of people smoke dope at the park there. I pointed out that nobody cares if anyone smokes dope. Not enough to shoot someone over. They also said drug deals were done there frequently since it’s beside a park and close to highway number 10. One witness even said they saw a drug deal go down right in front of the police there and the police didn’t do anything about it. I guess that would depend on what else they were selling. They will shoot you over crack. One would hate to think they shot a rival pot dealer but stranger things have happened.



Update: Kim Bolan is reporting that the guy seriously wounded in the shooting is the stepson of murdered gangster Sandip Duhre. Which once again shows that the Hells Angels extermination of their drug dealing rivals is continuing. Glad Bill Fordy met with them and says everything is A OK.

Armed US Police in Canada want exemption from Canadian law

Speaking of traitors and treason, Harper is letting armed US Officers in Surrey already and guess what? The armed US officers want exemption from Canadian law while armed in Canada. That is so insane it is astounding. Harper… Don’t get me started on Harper. He has given up Canadian sovereignty and it’s time to take it back!

US police have no right to patrol in Canada. Period. That is something we need to address right now. Their desire for exemption from Canadian law is a flaming example of why this pilot project is so wrong. Does that mean they want to implement the patriot act in Canada when Harper has a hard time enforcing it against the will of the people?

This is wrong. This is wrong. This is wrong. This needs to be addressed right now because it has already gone too far. In June Vancouver lawyer Eric Gottardi said Canada-US maritime policing pact infringes on Canada’s sovereignty. He is right. Harper is breaking the law by letting this happen. It needs to stop immediately.

They claim this new agreement will allow hot pursuit across maritime borders. Wrong! How many car chases cross the border? If the police are chasing someone, the suspect has to stop at the border. If they are in hot pursuit that is pretty obvious and they won’t be allowed to cross. If it’s not a hot pursuit but just a wanted felon, the US issue warnings to the Canadian customs and they stop the suspect at the border.

Their hot pursuit argument is a lie to try and sell their illegal deal that gives up Canadian sovereignty. This is an act of war. Harper is a hypocrite and an idiot. He runs all those War of 1812 commercials as a front for doing the exact opposite and handing over Canadian sovereignty to the US. Not on my watch. Contact the BC Civil Liberties Association to join the class action law suit.

Recap and Repercussions of Fast and Furious

There are a few new stories but I really want to emphasize the two big stories that really over shadow everything else right now. First was the Hells Angel president that was crying in court in front of the judge right after fingering the prosecution several times throughout the trial. That case is another solid example of the Hells Angels involvement with drug traficking in the US.

They were supplying crystal meth to South Carolina. It wasn’t just one or two rouge members. It was the primary business of their organization. Just like it was when the former Salem President and East Coast President was busted for selling crystal meth in Massachusetts. As with the former Kentucky Fulton president. Those are flaming examples of the Hells Angels involvement in the US drug trade as an organization.

Probably the most important story of the year is the recent one about the Hells Angels in Germany and Spain getting busted for drug trafficking, extortion, human trafficking and prostitution. That was a huge operation and takes Otis Garret’s murder and prostitution convictions and cracks it wide open.

Nevertheless, I do want to follow up on Operation Fast and Furious and comment on it’s ramifications and repercussions. As we know, in Operation Fast and Furious, ATF members were caught selling guns to the Mexican cartel and bringing back tons of cocaine as payment. It made big news in the States when a border guard was killed with one of those guns. The fact that they were bringing in tons of cocaine as payment for the guns was barely mentioned.

We know two of the whistle blowers in that case have been persecuted. Which is not only illegal, but shocking really. You’d think anyone who exposed such a sinister plot as the government selling guns to the Mexican cartel and bringing tons of cocaine into the country would be hailed as a hero not a traitor. The traitors are the ones arms and drug trafficking in the name of Uncle Sam.

Yet it is a disturbing pattern that repeats itself. The whistle blower that reported on the CIA water boarding prisoners without a trial - persecuted as a traitor when in fact it is the CIA that has broken it’s oath to preserve and protect the constitution from all enemies both foreign and domestic.

The whistle blower that revealed government agencies were spying on people without a warrant recently received a ridiculously long prison sentence when in fact, he was reporting illegal activity. This is a very disturbing pattern that has repeated itself with Fast and Furious. Not only were they persecuted when they should have been hailed as heroes, they were also slandered. The former top federal prosecutor in Arizona even joined in on the attack. The former prosecutor was attacking the wrong party.

You would think that since Fast and Furious is such a clear cut case of good versus evil that they wouldn’t dare persecute the whistle blowers in that case. You would think. The fact that they are clearly shows how deeply rooted that corruption really is. It is a violation of the oath of office. The violation of that oath needs to be addressed.

While the intelligence agencies and Obama’s spin doctors want us to forget about Fast and Furious, one editorial points out that’s hard to do when more bodies are turning up as a result of that sinister operation. It wasn’t a botched plan to track illegal arms dealing. It was illegal arms dealing and drug trafficking to raise money for off the book operations. Again. Just like Iran Contra and Mena, Arkansas.

Obama even had the audacity to claim that many of the scandals that surround Fast and Furious were phony. The family of the dead border guard said there was nothing phony about his murder. The only thing phony about Fast and Furious is Obama. Earlier this month the LA Times reported that a Mexican police chief was also killed with a gun that was part of Operation Fast and Furious.

It was incredibly offensive how Obama smiled when asked about Fast and Furious in the presidential debate and claimed executive privilege. Now that he has placed his seal of secrecy on all the Fast and Furious documents, he shouldn’t be impeached, he should be hanged. Nixon would not have gotten away with claiming executive privileged on all the Watergate documents. Obama was a fraud. He fooled us in the beginning but not any more.

In the United States vs Nixon the Supreme Court stated: "To read the Article II powers of the President as providing an absolute privilege as against a subpoena essential to enforcement of criminal statutes on no more than a generalized claim of the public interest in confidentiality of nonmilitary and nondiplomatic discussions would upset the constitutional balance of 'a workable government' and gravely impair the role of the courts under Article III."

Surrey Cab shooting

I had heard that someone shot at a cab in Surrey Saturday night but I didn’t realize it was at Surrey Central right behind the SFU courtyard where those wackos stabbed a guy in the neck with a kitchen knife and started kicking him on the ground after he dropped like a sack of potatoes. That one didn’t appear to be gang related. It just looked like a group of losers who jumped a smaller group of people after a fight at a bar.

This cab shooting sounds a bit different as well. The bullet went through the rear windows. After the shooting, the suspect drove off and the passengers fled. It’s likely the shooting was targeted at the passengers of the cab. The couldn’t have been very high lever drug dealers if they were riding in a cab. Unless they were being responsible and took a cab home after a night out drinking. The passengers were two couples so that’s entirely possible. One would hate to think it was just another group of wackos that shot someone for an altercation at a club.

Kim Bolan is reporting that the police haven't even found the passengers of the cab yet and are asking for the public's help to identify them.

60th anniversary of the Korean War

There was a very interesting documentary on Canada’s involvement in the Korean War last night called In Korea with Norm Christie. I didn’t realize it tied in with the 60th anniversary of the ceasefire. The Federal government wants to turn July 27th into a national day of remembrance. We don’t need another holiday but a day to remember courage and sacrifice is always a good thing.

"Establishing July 27 as a national day of recognition serves as a way to honour our veterans and this important moment in Canada's history," said Veterans Affairs minister Julian Fantino. "Today, Canadians will pause to remember the men and women in uniform who came to the aid of South Koreans during the Korean War." Building a monument and setting a day aside to remember veterans is a good thing. Cutting back their pensions and benefits is not.

There are a few points I want to make here. The documentary on TV last night talked about a specific battle where Canadian soldiers took strategic positions on top of steep mountains and withstood a huge onslaught of enemy soldiers trying to break through and take their position. It was Normandy in reverse. At Normandy, the Germans had the strategic position and cut down the allies like sheep. It was refreshing to see the Canadians had the strategic position this time.

Canada was right to participate in the Korean War. We were wrong not to participate in the Vietnam War. That is easy to see in hindsight. We can talk about the Gulf of Tonkin incident all we want. The bottom line is Chinese Communists invaded a sovereign land on both occasions. On one occasion we rose to the cause. On the other occasion, we choked and faltered.

Both wars were before my time so to speak. All I remember growing up is that the Vietnam War was bad and a lot of bad things happened. Soldiers trapped in a guerrilla war going crazy and killing innocent civilians. Vietnam was where George Bush Sr got the CIA addicted to drug trafficking. It all started with the heroin trade as confirmed by Bo Gritz. Yet the root cause of the Vietnam War was the same as the Korean War. A Communist empire invaded a sovereign land to bring it into bondage.

As we remember the Korean war we need to remember that South Korea was grateful for the Canadian support and sacrifice just like the Dutch were when Canada helped liberate them from the Nazi’s who had invaded their homeland. That is the way military intervention is supposed to be. It’s not supposed to be the invasion of sovereign states for their oil like in Iraq.

Canada was right not to participate in that invasion. Harper saying we made a mistake in that case is a huge concern. It was never claimed Iraq had anything to do with 9/11. Iraq was invaded on the premeditated lie that they had Weapons of Mass Destruction. That’s why Libby Davies went with a few others across the border to a US Weapons facility that had a big sign outside saying Warning Weapons of Mass Destruction. She asked if she could inspect that facility and was denied.

I say premeditated lie because Tony Blair was in on that mission and MI6 were caught red handed giving false information to the media in Operation Mass Appeal. That is why we cannot trust any of these intelligence agencies whenever they send out press releases. They have been caught lying. Any information they willingly give to the media is suspect.

I do think setting July 27th aside as a time to remember the Korean War is a good thing. We need to remember what military intervention is supposed to be and what it’s not supposed to be so we don’t make those same two mistakes in the future - of failing to act in Vietnam and wanting to have acted in Iraq. The latter is even more concerning because it makes us no better than the enemy.

I have nothing against the people of North Korean. We have a huge number of immigrants here from South Korea who are all hard working contributors to our society. I have a huge concern with the crazed leader of North Korea who has repeatedly threatened to fire nuclear missiles at the US. It’s easy for us to criticize the people of North Korea for their blind obedience to a madman and turn a blind eye to our own.

Yet it behooves us to question military action and make our own moral decisions as to which fights to support and which invasions we should abstain from. That is what it means to be Canadian. Likewise, if China, Russia or America ever invaded Canada, we would be equally grateful to whoever came to our aid to help us repel that invasion and regain our sovereignty.

Jog for the Bog

I didn’t realize today was International Bog Day. They had a fun run and festival at Burns Bog. I never used to realize the ecological importance of bogs. I remember hearing some environmentalists were rallying to save a bog a while ago and I said are you kidding me? It’s just a bog. It’s not like it’s an old growth forest.

Apparently bogs are very important for water and air filtration. Burns Bog is referred to as the lungs of the Lower mainland since it filters out the carbon and greatly improves the air quality. Which is pretty important since every summer we now see reports on air quality readings for those with respiratory problems. During the summer pollution tends to sit in the Fraser Valley as there isn’t much wind to blow it away.

Which again forces us to ask what they are smoking at City Hall to even consider putting a Garbage incinerator in Surrey. That’s more than shooting ourselves in the foot. It’s placing a noose around our neck to go bungee jumping. It most certainly isn't progressive.

There was a petition and booth about the coal trains at the festival. Aside from the huge ecological ramifications of mining and burning coal, transporting it brings air quality concerns for people with respiratory problems as well. The coal cars are open and exposed. Whenever coal trains go by, coal dust spread for miles. In Whitercok they have to keeping wiping off the patio tables from all the coal dust resulting from the increase in coal train traffic. Which will go off the charts if the Fraser Docks coal terminal is created. The one Metro Vancouver voted against.

Yet another problem with transporting coal trains through burns bog is that the dust will polite the bog. It will saturate it with carbon and prevent it from purifying our air like it’s supposed to. On Texada Island there isn’t enough water to hose down the coal to prevent the dust from spreading. Even if they do hose it down that just means it goes into the water supply and contaminates the seafood we eat.

Even if we cave in to the short term economic clear cut of transporting coal out of the Fraser Docks there’s nothing to say they won’t turn around and ship it out of Cherry Point in the States. As we become more educated as a society, we need to start using our brain and becoming economically sustainable and stop being so short sighted. Coal was fine in the Industrial revolution but times have changed. The CO2 levels are a real concern now. Failing to address that is just being irresponsible.



Burns bog is a really nice place to go for a walk. They’ve built a board walk in the reserve. Not only is it an important air and water filtration system but it is also teaming with wildlife. In a closed section it is an important migratory habitat for Sandhiil Crane that stand at five feet tall. The cranes migrate down to Oregon and California but nest in Burns bog. It is a crucial part of their habitat. Just like the Tsawwassen area is that they want to rezone for a shopping mall. The Burns bog Conservation Society has an awesome Crane T-shirt you can buy to support their cause. They are collecting paper cranes to go along with a petition to stop development in that sacred habitat.

How the Liberal Government is Bankrupting BC Hydro

Damien Gillis exposes the Liberal party's true economic track record. As I’ve repeated before privatizing the power brokers that sell power to BC Hydro at an inflated rate is criminal fraud that has created a ballooning debt that rivals the Enron scandal. Notwithstanding this ballooning debt, the Christie Clarke lie was a claim they were going to take money from BC Hydro to pay down their debt. That claim constitutes fraud.

Terror Squad tied to the Hells Angels

The StarPhoenix from Saskatoon is reporting that Darren Harper, the leader of a local street gang known as the Terror Squad has had his parole revoked following a hearing which exposed "direct ties" between the Terror Squad and the Hells Angles.

The Terror Squad has been described as the most dominant street gang in Saskatoon actively involved in the cocaine trade. "When crew members sell drugs, commit home invasions, robberies or other crimes, they are required to 'kick up' a portion of the profits to the council or others designated as captains, generals or higher-ups." Michael James McNab and several others were arrested in March 2011. At least we now know who is supplying their drugs.

Kelowna Crime and a Crown Appeal

A new report claims Kelowna has been listed as the highest crime per capita city in Canada after the Hells Angels opened up shop there. Thankfully the crown has appealed Nanaimo Hells Angel Robert Widdifield's extortion case that was dismissed due to court delays. Hopefully after his case is heard we can fire Robert Johnston and all the other judges in BC sitting on the wrong side of the bench. I suppose that would mean we would have to hire some real judges to deal with the delays then. I hear they won't let Peter Leask do criminal trials any more. Thank God. If that's true then they admit there was a problem with him. Get rid of him and seize the Kelowna clubhouse.

Rock Machine member sentenced to 8 years

The Winnipeg Free Press is reporting that Cameron Hemminger , “the last remaining member” of the Manitoba Rock Machine has been sentenced to 8 years in prison for trafficking cocaine and guns. Last month Joseph Strachan was sentenced to nine years following that large bust back in January. John Curwin received a 9 and 1/2 year sentence back in April. Curwin was selling BZP and was caught with a stick of dynamite.

Tactical Unprofessionalism

This morning as I lie in bed sleeping, I hear sirens go by. Not thinking much of it at the time, I noticed that I kept hearing them over and over again. Normally when a cop pulls someone over they have the lights and siren going until the person pulls over. Then they keep the lights on but turn off the siren. Especially in a residential neighborhood.

This was a random burst of the siren that kept going off over and over again. It was 3:30 AM when most people are trying to sleep. It started to get really irritating so I got up and went out to see what all the fuss was about. Police cars had a perimeter sectioned off with their lights on. Each vehicle would release a loud burst of their siren sporadically and repeatedly. It was impossible to sleep and it was really irritating. I started walking outside the perimeter hoping to ask a cop who isn’t in active pursuit what is with the sirens.

I walk by a few police cars on the outside of the perimeter and cringed every time the siren burst goes off wanting to ask them about the sirens but didn’t want to interrupt anyone. A female officer with a police dog is searching the area. I hear her say on her radio there’s a guy walking out here and another officer drives up to speak with me.

The cop asks me if I have seen anyone walking around about 20 minutes ago. I said no and pause for the awkward silence. I said obviously you’re looking for someone. What is the tactical advantage of the sirens? He said they want him to stay down. I assume that means they want him to stay down and hide as oppose to run away so they can find them with the dog. I walk over to a gassy hill outside their perimeter and sit down to watch the light show. The noise makes it impossible to go back to bed and sleep. I see the female officer with the dog on a very long leash searching all over and notice she crossed over and was walking past behind me.

Then all of a sudden I can hear her let the dog charge me from behind as I sit on the grassy hill watching everything. I raise my hands in the air and brace myself for the dogs teeth to sink into by back. Right before it attacks me the officer pulls the leash and shouts no then literally screams at me and shouts “What the F*ck are you doing here?!?” Those were her exact words.

I responded by saying I was trying to sleep then added I don’t understand what the tactical advantage of the sirens is. Then as she walks away I state in absolute bewilderment this is very unprofessional.

I watch her handle the dog from a distance. Pulling the dog shouting f this and f that. It didn’t look like the dog had a scent and was following it. It didn’t look like she really knew how to handle the dog either. Then she came up to speak to two other officers. One was in an unmarked car with a dog in it. He seemed a lot more calm and competent. She had calmed down considerably and they were discussing what she had seen.

As I just shook my head it made me think of a scene from the movie Men in Black where Will Smith was in a target practice drill. It was a funny scene from a comedy. Yet it showed that law enforcement does have a difficult task pursuing suspects in a world full of bad guys, good guys and innocent bystanders.

At first I thought, welcome to Surrey but then I remembered the Prince George lockdown and how this could happen in any residential neighborhood anywhere in Canada. It is important to be appreciative that the police are in fact willing to chase down bad guys. I do however think it’s important to address police arrogance and stress the importance of preserving the Charter of Rights in our society when the police are paid by civilian taxes to serve and protect them. Not to control, harass and abuse them. No one has the right to run around like Gestapo and trample our civil liberties.

Hells Angels in Germany and Spain arrested for human trafficking

The Guardian is reporting that on Wednesday “Police in Mallorca have arrested 25 members of the Hells Angels motorcycle gang on suspicion of drug trafficking, trafficking in humans, extortion and running prostitution rings.”

The majority of those arrested are German and include leading members of the German and Spanish chapters. Frank Hanebuth, the 49-year-old former boxer and head of the Hanover chapter, is reportedly among those arrested. A local police officer was also arrested, according to press on the island.

The same source said that a principal source of the gang's income allegedly came from women coerced to work as prostitutes in clubs in Germany. Police also claim the gang frequently extorted money from foreign residents using threats of violence accompanied by photographs showing that they were familiar with victims' families' routines.

This is a huge bust. In involves a Germans President not some rouge member. Frank Hanebuth, a reputed Hells Angels boss from Germany, was among the 25 arrested by Spanish police at his multi-million dollar estate on the Mediterranean resort island of Mallorca in Spain.

A Spanish paper called the Local is reporting that “The Hells Angels planned to launder "a significant quantity" of money from its activities in Germany and Turkey in the construction of a Formula One race track in Mallorca, police said in a statement.”

“Operation Casablanca targeted alleged drug trafficking, extortion, money laundering, and running of prostitution rings by the Majorca chapter of the notorious motorbike club. Most of the club's members arrived on the island from Germany after authorities in that country cracked down on the group in 2009. The group raised money mainly by forcing women into prostitution across Germany and extorting cash from people they threatened to harm if they were not paid.

Threatening someone’s family is total low life. Yet these guys have been accused of showing women pictures of their family and threatening to harm them if the woman didn’t agree to become prostitutes for them. That is disgusting. They call informants rats, yet they are the rats. Reporting that to the police isn’t being a rat. Failing to do so is. These low lifes are rat shit.

In Fast and Furious 6 Vin Diesel said “Never threaten a man's family.”
