Whitecliff

Took some time out to visit my father's grave yesterday and dropped off some carnations. Had a wonderful visit with an old friend and took my daughter to Whitecliff. My father used to take me there when I was very young. We'd climb down the rocks and take pictures of the sunset while he would read to me the First Nation legends of Vancouver by Pauline Johnston. When the tide's out you can walk out to that small island. This is Vancouver. This is our home. Peace.

The Entrapment of John Nuttal and Amanda Korody

Now that John Nuttal and Amanda Korody were found "guilty" in the Surrey pressure cooker fraud, the defense has rightfully played the entrapment card. The court will reconvene June 29th to hear the entrapment argument. There has never been a more clear case of entrapment in the history of the earth.

The RCMP handler told them what to do, how to do it, drove them around picking up bogus bomb parts and drove them to a hotel so they could videotape two Surrey drug addicts try and assemble a bomb they were incapable of making. The whole time the handler had to repeatedly remind the mark to stop being distracted from the task and get back to work. They even had to drive them across the ferry and to the designated spot because the couple didn't have a car or enough money to pay for the ferry trip over to Vancouver Island.

The Vancouver Province finally printed a logical article on the case that wasn't written by the infamous flaming idiot and Kim Bolan wannabe, Keith Fraser. The article which was also published in the Huffington Post as well as the CBC states that human rights groups are concerned about how the RCMP targeted the most vulnerable to entrap them into becoming "terrorists".

Bill Tieleman was the one that set the alarm bells off from day one. He pointed out about the RCMP's terrorist quotas they are mandated to fulfill. Bill Tieleman also pointed out that this insane plot sounds similar to others in the US “where clueless and troubled people have been convicted of deadly plots after undercover agents and informers “facilitated” their crimes to incredible degrees.”

An example he uses is “James Cromitie, 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.” This goes well beyond entrapment. I bet ya he didn’t make the Stinger surface-to-air missiles himself. Someone provided him with it which, as Bill Tieleman observes, facilitated the attack. If you bribe a drug addict to commit a crime you haven't saved the world from a terrorist, you just created one.

The whole idea of setting a bomb off at a public fireworks display is heinous. So is entrapping two drug addicts into even considering such an evil act when they did not have the means nor the motive to do so just to fulfill a terrorist quota to rationalize giving up our civil liberty. This was entrapment. If the court does not recognize that we as Canadians are all diminished. Instead of paying drug addicts to perform terrorist acts we need to charge CSIS with murder for providing the explosives in the Air India attack and for theft for "losing" a billion tax dollars from their budget every year for these absurd off the book operations. What about the article catching CSIS giving aid to ISIS? Why haven't they been charged with that and why isn't that story in the press?

This is how the fraud went down:

Under cover RCMP officers targeted two Surrey drug addicts in an attempt to bribe and coerce them into performing a terrorist act to meet their terrorist quota. They befriended the couple, gave them food and other "gifts". They told them they had to come up with some kind of plan but were unable to do so. The undercover officer kept pressuring them telling them we've spent a lot of money on you, Mr Big isn't going to be very happy about this. You need to come up with a plan. The couple were genuinely afraid for their life thinking some huge terrorist with access to brief cases full of money would kill them if they didn't do exactly as they were told. That is why John's elderly grandmother moved out of the basement suite right before they were arrested. They all though their life was at risk and his grandmother couldn't handle the stress any more.

Under duress they threw out two suggestions. They said well we could hit a military target or set off a bomb at a public event like a fireworks display. Mr Big wants you to do the Firework one. They told them which one to do. He admitted that the idea of killing innocent people made him feel sick to his stomach but was consistently pressured into continuing with the plot. Only they had to be driven around and coached every step of the way so they wouldn't get distracted. It's hard to focus on task when you're stoned on drugs.

On camera they were told you can back out at any time while off camera they were told, but Mr Big won't be happy. First of all, how do you make a pressure cooker bomb? I don't know and a Surrey drug addict isn't going to know. In the court they gave the secret: black powder. Well that finally makes sense. They filled the thing with gun powder. Only where do they get it from and how do they set it off? How do they seal the lid so it will explode? Duck tape? That's what they had. I kid you not. If they filled it with gun powder and sealed the lid with duck tape that thing isn't going to be any bigger than a small pipe bomb.

There was a gang banger caught trying to make pipe bombs in the Interior. He was using gun powder from shotgun shells. That makes sense. Were John and Amanda emptying out shot gun shells? Nope. When I was a kid chemistry kits were popular. We used to make our own gunpowder because back then those supplies were readily available: salt peter, sulfur and wood charcoal. Now not so much. Did John and Amanda make their own gun powder? Nope. Someone had to have given it to them which once again confirms they did not have the means of committing their crime supporting the entrapment verdict.

The next problem is how are you going to set it off? With a fuse? Perhaps but they didn't have one. They had a toy clock but what the hell were they going to do with that? There is no way anything John built with the supplies he was given would have ever exploded.

John was videotaped making crazy statements while stoned. "Ya know if we are going to pull this off I'm going no need to pack heat. Yeah I'm gonna need an AK for that." Sure thing buddy we'll get right on it. "And ya know it would sure be easier if we had some C-4 to make this thing really explode." Well guess what, they actually gave a Surrey drug addict C-4. The RCMP should be charged right there with reckless endangerment. There is not a snowball's chance in hell two Surrey drug addicts are going to be able to get their hands on C-4 unless the police give it to them. There is no way I, a couple of Surrey drug addicts or any other average citizen is going to have any idea how to detonate the C-4 and actually get possession of the detonators. Like I said there has not ever been a more clear case of entrapment in the history of the earth.

Canadian Hells Angels arrested for vicious assault in Greece - Update

From one extreme to the other. From an inspiring heart wrenching image of a place where blind men see to a dark place no one wants to see - Finian's Inferno so to speak. The Huffingting Post is reporting that Police have arrested three Hells Angels members from Alberta following a vicious assault on the Greek island of Corfu. Global is confirming all three are from Alberta. It was a near fatal attack on a 41 year old male who is currently on life support. There isn't really anything proud or noble about a brutal three on one attack. Nobody likes bullies.

Kim Bolan implied that Greece hasn't released the names of the members charged due to privacy laws. That is somewhat absurd. We don't have those kind of laws in Canada. If someone is charged with a brutal assault like this, the public has a right to know who has been charged knowing that people are innocent until proven guilty by law. In Canada privacy laws mean the government can't spy on you without a warrant. Those laws are being trampled as we speak.

I have the names of two of the three Canadians from the Edmonton chapter charged and I have quite a few pictures of one proudly posing with members of the Whiteboy posse who are drug dealers that sell drugs for the Edmonton Hells Angels and decapitated Bob Roth for a drug debt. It is a dark inferno of greed and extortion. There are two reasons I'm not going to post them.

First it's because Gangsters out is going through a metamorphosis. Gangsters out is no longer for outting gangsters. It is for helping gang members get out of the life by supporting TBM Fresh Start. It is also to continue to raise public awareness about drug related violence to help us develop the political will to one day embrace the New York Model.

The other reason is because it really doesn't matter which members it was because it clearly reflects on all of them since it was at an international convention. The plausible deniability argument fails here. The Hells Angels are pretty passionate about banning people from misusing their trademark. They are more than capable of discouraging this kind of behavior at public events. What do you think is going to happen the next time they want to host a convention in a City? The residents will oppose it just like they did the Devil's Rejects clubhouse in Langford.



Update: OK my sources claim it was Nick Dragich and Dusty Swanson (on the right) a prospect for Westridge, formally from the Dirty flu. Nick has confirmed he was in Greece at the time:



Weren't the German "brothers" the ones who were charged with human trafficking in Spain?

Second Update: The sister of the victim on life support contacted the Vancouver Sun and Kim Bolan has posted her account of what happened. It was a bold case of three on one bullying. A senseless act of violence that has left Canada diminished.



It turns out that Nick Dragich was one of the Hells Angels posing with Rob Ford when he was mayor of Toronto a while back. The Toronto Hells Angles were bragging about it on their web site. Nice bunch of guys. I'm sure there's a special place in hell reserved just for them.

A Place where blind men see

Well this is inspiring. Marlana VanHoose, a blind girl with cerebral palsy sang a breath taking rendition of the American National Anthem at Game 6 of the NBA finals. Golden State Warriors won by the way. They're me peeps so they are.

I like listening to different national anthems. Even though most are in different languages you can usually feel a sense of patriotism that each anthem kindles. Although I prefer the Canadian anthem because I am Canadian, I have a great respect for the American national anthem. I have a lot of friends who are American. To them the flag is a very sacred thing. They don't let it touch the ground. That's a big deal to them.

Americans don't pledge their allegiance to a person they pledge their allegiance to an ideal. They pledge their allegence to the flag and the free republic it represents. The flag represents the US Constitution which defines the free republic. That is why all the elected officials and civil servants swear an oath to protect the constitution from all enemies both foreign and domestics. In our day when civil liberty and the US the Constitutions hangs by a thread because many have broken that sacred oath, the oath keepers are here to defend it.

Canadians may not have found their liberty in the rockets red glare, but they most certainly have defended the liberty of other nations in the rockets red glare. That ideal is an inspiration to us all. Like listening to this young girl sing, it takes us to a place where blind men see.

Woman found dead in Edmonton

The Edmonton journal is reporting that A young woman was found dead, ankles and wrists bound, in a shopping cart early Tuesday in an Inglewood alleyway, witnesses say. That is messed up.

David Giles' voir dire continues

I checked the court registry in Vancouver while I was filing court documents today. Turns out that David Giles' voir dire is still on. That's a trial before a trial to determine what evidence will be admissible. That means I can't report what I saw and heard yet but I sure would like to. I'd sure like to be able to tell you all who was on the stand and who I saw the witness hanging out with during the break. I can't report on that until the whole thing is over with. All I can say is holy Manuel Noriega batman, sh*t is gonna hit the fan.

Skellator is not looking well and I'm not going to mock him any more because I understand he isn't well. I don't know if that's just another bullsh*t story or if it's real but I don't wish that on anyone. Not even my enemies. I attended the court in the afternoon session. Skelletor made a point of turning right around and looking me in the eye before turning around to face the front again. I was the only spectator in the court room. I guess it was only fitting for him to see my face in this life so he'll know what to look for when I testify against him in the life hereafter.

The key thing to remember is that he needs a fair trial. If he was guilty of this drug trafficking offense then he needs to be convicted of it not the trickle down scape goat. According to Neil Hall, who sat in on the EPandora trial, Giles was implicated in the Western Wind bust. That was huge - 2 1/2 tons of cocaine. Not pressing charges in that case was a judicial tragedy.

We need to convict Giles not the trickle down scape goat so we can add that to Lester Jones' conviction to solidify the seizure of the Kelowna clubhouse. Give the others back I don't care. Just as long as they seize the Kelowna clubhouse and don't build one in Surrey.

I must admit, since Giles is one of the only ones who hasn't made bail, he doesn't look quite as smug now as he did when he was standing beside Mom Boucher grabbing his balls telling the media to suck it after Boucher got off on a technicality. How the arrogant have fallen.

Mall biker fined $13,500

1130 News is reporting that the prick that drove his motorcycle down an escalator in Guildford Mall while running from the police has been fined $13,500 for a list of 58 traffic violations. Three cheers. That prick had no regard for all the pedestrians in the mall as he kept racing in and out past them.



Guildford Mall? That's my crib. Stay in your own lane. (When I say stay in your own lane I don't mean mind your own business I mean stay in your own area. Get out of my crib.)

Langley and Surrey Shootings

CBC is confirming a scan BC report that there was a drive by shooting in Langley last night. Several neighbours said they were awoken by as many as 10 gunshots just after 2 AM in the 2500-block of 204 Street. The neighbours, all of whom declined to give their names, said the house is believed to be a legal marijuana grow operation. Which leads us to ask, with all these pot stores opening up, how do we protect them from being taken over by the Hells Angels?

Update: News 1130 is also reporting that there was yet another shooting in Surrey on Saturday night. "Shortly after 10pm, shots were fired between two cars on Highway 10 near 186th. When officers arrived, they found casings and two homes in the area were hit by the flying bullets."

Williams Lake Shooting

Castanaet is reporting that One man is in critical condition in hospital with multiple gunshot wounds after the vehicle he was riding in was shot at multiple times during a high speed chase through a residential neighbourhood in Williams Lake Saturday night. The drug violence plague is now spreading to smaller communities. Big city gangs holding small town communities hostage. Why did Christy Clark cut funding to the gang task force again?

Fort McMurray drug bust

My McMurray dot com is reporting that "Seven search warrants were executed in Fort McMurray on June 3 to conclude a two-year investigation of a cocaine and fentanyl drug trafficking operation. Five homes, a Chateau Nova Hotel room and a local business on Signal Road were searched as police targeted 34-year-old Patrick Felix and 31-year-old Jason Mulley. The two are the alleged ringleaders of the network that reached Edmonton, Calgary and B.C."

Surrey shooting

The Vancouver Province is reporting that there was another shooting in Surrey just after 9:00 PM last night in a parking lot behind an Earl's restaurant at 72nd and Scott Road. CTV is reporting that it was a public shooting when the restaurant was open for business.

Police officer shot dead in Edmonton

Tragically the Edmonton Journal is reporting that one police officer was shot dead and another wounded in the line of duty last night while executing a search warrant in Edmonton.

A lot of people have mixed feelings about the police. No one likes getting harassed for stupid things and no one likes to see the police beating up suspects, violating civil rights or sexually harassing their own members. Yet the bottom line is there are a lot of good cops out their that literally put their lives on the line every day to protect the public peace and support law and order.

CBC is reporting that Norman Walter Raddatz, the man suspected of being responsible for the killing of Edmonton Const. Daniel Woodall, had an extensive hate crimes file related to online bullying of a family in the city. The shooting occurred when police served the suspect with an arrest warrant for criminal harassment. The Edmonton Journal is reporting that more then 50 bullets were fired during the exchange.

Daniel Woodall was a husband, a father and a son. Like it or not, he was our brother. Honor him.

A Beautiful Day

Today was what U2 would describe as a Beautiful Day. I couldn't resist the sunshine and took the kayak up Widgeon Creek at Pitt Lake and hiked up to the water falls. It was magnificent. A lot of people bring monster boats on Pitt Lake. Widgeon creek is for the quiet paddlers to enjoy in peace. If you hike up Golden Ears you get a magnificent view of the entire lake. It's a pretty long hike but unlike the Lions you can water up along the way.



I passed the clubhouse on Harris Road on the way to Pitt Lake. Didn't see any logos up. Just remember that my deal says you keep that clubhouse as well as Jabba's Palace. You keep all of them except Kelowna and get a fresh start. Think about it. Just get back to business and stop being so loud and proud. Ricky C's Gay Pride Parade at the Devil's Rejects clubhouse was stupid. It drew too much bad press and they lost it. Pride cometh before the fall. Nobody likes bullies. The strong don't bully the weak. The strong protect the weak. That is what the strong do. Peace.

Seizing Hells Angels clubhouses in British Columbia

The criminal organization status of the Hells Angels in BC is a hot topic because it relates to the government seizing their clubhouses. Right now the Nanaimo clubhouse has been seized and they have applied to the courts for the right to seize the East Vancouver and Kelowna clubhouse. If I was litigating that case, I'd be willing to cut a deal. Right now the HAs could lose all of them.

I think the criminal organization status of the Hells Angels in BC should be considered on a case by case basis. Each chapter separately. Kelowna was the chapter that really screwed up. That chapter was involved with a huge amount of criminal activity. Nanaimo was involved in some but not nearly to the extent Kelowna was. The deal I'd cut would be this:

Give them back the Naniamo clubhouse if the club let them have the Kelowna clubhouse in return. That's probably what the judge is going to conclude after a long and painful trial anyways. That would mean the Kelwona clubhouse is seized and sold but every other clubhouse stands until they screw up like Kelowna did. On the condition they agree not to build a new clubhouse in Surrey. Make those little Surrey girls use the clubhouse in Langley or Randy's freaking basement. Any new clubhouse would be up to he local city hall's discretion like how Langford shut down the Devil's Rejects clubhouse because of zoning concerns. This deal would mean Randy Jones would still get to keep Shakerz formally known as Tbarz. Only clean that place up man. It used to be high end.

The surveillance video when those Hells Angels associates were stabbed there showed just how far down that place has fallen. It's turned into another Dell for God's sake. Surrey can do better. Let's raise the bar and go back to the way it was when it first opened. That's my advice. That's the deal I'd cut if I was litigating it. That way we could all move on to other things. If they break their word and build a clubhouse in Surrey, Trevor would get extradited.

The Hells Angels just want to do business and make some cheddar. If they stop shooting people in public, shooting innocent bystanders like in the Surrey Six and stop killing drug addicts for small debts, I'll mind my own business and shut up. That way I can focus on helping TBM Canada instead. You don't have to torture and kill drug addicts for drug debts if you don't front them the drugs. It's that simple. Stop fronting crack addicts crack. That's bad business. That way we get rid of the Tony T's in the DTES and in Surrey. Time to give everyone a Fresh Start.

If both parties agree to these terms, it could become a consent order and the matter would be resolved until another chapter screws up.

Hot Pursuit

Stress levels have been a bit high of late so we went to see Reese Witherspoon and Sofia Vergara in Hot Pursuit. It was pretty funny. My daughter is a fan of Sofia Vergara because she's from Colombia. My daughter went to Colombia a couple of times and loved it. She talked about learning to Salsa dance at 3:00 AM on the side streets with some friends. She talked about how they poured aguardiente all over the bar, set it on fire and drank it through straws. Good times.

One time they were in the back of a cab and a guy on a motorcycle pulled up beside them with a gun. Her friends grabbed her head and pulled it down out of view as the cab raced in and out of traffic and pulled over beside a cop causing the high jacker to move on. She thought it was fun. It was hard for me to get mad because I had many similar experiences when I was her age.

Recently she said that she loves her new car but she really misses Columbia. She said the people there are dirt poor but they are really happy. I know exactly what she means. When I came back from Ireland all I wanted to do is go back. I just couldn't relate to the yuppie materialism that exists here. It was a lot different back in Ireland. I told her that I came to the conclusion that I'd be able to give my kids a better life if I stayed here. More opportunities and what not. Yet growing up poor has been good for them. They have a strong work ethic and are focused on positive things despite their insane father's antics. They're all grown up now. Life goes on.

I have to do something. I just don't see myself going back to church and helping out with the boy scouts again. Not when I know about all the horrible things going on around me. That's why I think TBM is the cause to support right now. They have a strong network of safe houses that aren't run by the government or the police. They run it themselves. Just like the safe houses the IRA would run back in Ireland. The same type of network except for a more positive cause. All former bikers and gang members. Not the plastic pretty boys we have out here that live in the ivory tower. Hard core soldiers who used to go over to Europe into Germany and blow shit up. These are the guys helping people leave the gang life and protect them.

I started watching a TV series on Netflics called Lilyhammer. It's about a mafioso in the States that was screwed over and went into witness protection. He asked to be assigned to Norway after seeing their winter Olympics because he figured no one would be looking for him there. It's pretty funny. TBM's network in Scandinavia is worth looking into.

Hells Angels to be deemed a criminal organization in South Australia

ABC Australia is reporting that the government of south Australia has proposed legislation that will officially declare the Hells Angels a criminal organization just like Manitoba has. In fact, they are adding 26 other outlaw motorcycle gangs to the list. This is the perfect example of how the Hells Angels are destroying it for everyone else.

The question we have to ask is how do we confront organized crime while at the same time protect civil liberty. It's pretty simple really. The freedom of association is a sacred right. The right to sell drugs is not. It's that simple. In Canada, Manitoba is the only province so far to have the Hells Angels deemed a criminal organization by law makers. In Ontario and Quebec it was the courts themselves not the actual lawmakers that made that conclusion.

Canadian mob bosses arrested

The National Post is reporting that two Canadian cells of the Ndrangheta who are Calabrians have been arrested. On Tuesday, Giuseppe “Pino” Ursino, 62, was arrested at his home in Bradford, Ontario. Diego Serrano, 66, of Vaughan, was also arrested. The Calabrians of Hamilton were the prime suspects in the extermination of the Rizzutos when Vito was in prison.

Surrey Shooting

Well, back to reality. CBC is reporting that there was a shooting in Surrey last night as four youths tried to force there way into a home at the 3000 block of Croydon Drive.

Honorary Chief of Chechen Night Wolves

The Moscow Times is reporting that Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov announced over the weekend that he had become the honorary leader of a new regional branch of the Night Wolves, a group of political bikers in Russia.

Speaking of Chechnya, Russian intelligence was caught planting a bomb in Chechnya and blamed it on terrorist just like the Americans. September 22, 1999, locals in the regional town of Ryazan saw three men emerging from the cellars of a block of flats who later turned out to be FSB officers. When local police checked the cellars they found sacks of high explosive wired up to a detonator. The FSB later attempted to explain away the incident by claiming that the entire operation was a training exercise. Kinda makes ya wonder about the wave of bombings that put Putin into power.

Speaking of the Americans, Graham Fuller was involved with Iran contra. The address for the Congress of Chechen International Organizations just happened to be the home address of Graham E. Fuller, formerly Vice Chairman of the Reagan-era CIA's National Intelligence Council.

Shots fired in Surrey

Surrey RCMP confirming shots were fired in the area of 134 Street and 70 B Avenue at around 8pm last night. The Vancouver Province is confirming the report. The Surrey Now is referring to it as the 28th local shooting since the beginning of March. Two random stabbings and two different parties as well.

Australia Comancheros close Clubhouse

The Herald Sun in Australia is reporting that the Comancheros MC has shut its original Victorian clubhouses in South Melbourne and Hallam under pressure from Victoria Police’s bikie Echo task force. Police have laid hundreds of charges against members of the club. The paper claims the vacuum left by the Comancheros has been filled by Australia’s newest outlaw club, the Mongols.

Former Comanchero president Mahmoud "Mick" Hawi was involved with that big fight at the airport where some Comancheros ran into some Hells Angels and ended up beating Anthony Zervas to death. Mahmoud was first found guilty of murder but appealed the conviction and was later allowed to plead guilty to manslaughter which only makes sense since it was the result of a fight in a chance meeting. There was no prior intent.

The Herald Sun is also reporting that "the Hells Angels, the club the Comancheros had replaced at the top of Victoria’s pecking order, has also experienced a period of change involving the toppling of several of its ranking members. Its most prominent identity, Peter Hewat, is no longer the sergeant-at-arms of its East County chapter in Campbellfield, following his arrest over allegations relating to his behaviour in the towing industry."

Peter Hewat, as we recall, was the Rat King. He was the Sergeant-at-arms for the Hells Angels East County Chapter in Campbellfield, Melbourne. That's the same chapter that kidnapped, gang raped and tortured a girl from Melbourne on another pig farm. It was frighteningly similar to the Pickton farm in Vancouver. Although the Melbourne girl was awarded a token criminal compensation for her injuries, no one was charged or convicted in that heinous crime.

Then there's the Chris Hudson story. They bribed him to betray his former club called the Finks to cross over to the Hells Angels. He was caught on video beating his ex in a bar, grabbing her by the hair and dragging her outside where he then kicked her in the head. Later that day he was assaulting his current girl friend in public when a lawyer and a Dutch backpacker came to her aid. He then pulled out a gun, shot all three and emptied the clip into the lawyer. The lawyer who was a father of three died but the other two survived. That is what the Hells Angels are doing down under.

March against Monsanto

CTV is reporting that "Protesters gathered in cities across the globe Saturday to rally against the American biotechnology giant Monsanto. The third-annual March Against Monsanto was held in several major Canadian cities, including Toronto, Winnipeg, Calgary and Vancouver. In total, organizers said that events were being held in 428 cities in 38 countries."

The protest is about the abundance of Genetically Modified organisms which inject pesticides into food and modifies the seeds. It is a serious concern because it is wiping out bees which means cross pollination becomes obsolete. In Europe where GMO has been banned the bee population is starting to return. It's another example of corporate greed where large corporations get a monopoly on a market and wipe out all opposition. I first found out about GMO at a Stephen Harper protest in Kelowna. Consequently there was a large turnout in the Kelowna protest today.

Castanet is reporting that "organizers believe Monsanto is destroying farmer’s lives across the globe and making headway into owning the seeds that farmers are forced to use – which would be GMO." Conservatives are supposed to support small business and the free market but that is exactly the opposite of what Stephen Harper is doing. Instead he is helping large corporations destroy the free market by killing small business so they can gouge consumers as long as they pay a kickback to the politicians that enabled them.

We need to enforce GMO labeling by law. If someone wants to sell GMO produce it needs to be labeled accordingly. Failure to do that is fraud.

Ireland votes to approve Gay marriage

Vice News is reporting that Ireland became the first country in the world to legalize gay marriage by a national vote with 62% in favor. I think the key word here is marriage. What two consenting adults do behind closed doors is their business. Gay rape is just as heinous as heterosexual rape. Especial when it involves children. So although the church opposes the decision it clearly must take the board out of it's own eye before it takes the speck out of it's neighbors.

Suspicious fire in Courtenay

CBC is reporting that a suspicious fire in Courtney yesterday. The Comox Valley Record is reporting that a witness described multiple explosions. Police have obtained a search warrant and are investigating the possibility of a drug lab.

Shooting outside Coquitlam Centre mall

CTV is confirming a News 1130 Twitter post about a shooting outside Coquitlam Centre mall this afternoon. Global is reporting that "calls came in to RCMP at about 3 p.m. saying one person had been shot near the Montana’s Restaurant."

There has also been an update on the biker brawl in Waco Texas. Breitbart.com is confirming the claim that all the bikers who were shot dead were shot dead by police. Their source is the Aging Rebel who was told that by the bikers or supporters.

Drug plane from Venezuela crashes off Colombia's coast

The Big Story is reporting that "a small plane en route from Venezuela with more than a ton of cocaine on board crashed into the Caribbean on Wednesday after being pursued by Colombia's air force. Venezuela has become a key transit country for cocaine produced in Colombia, with several government officials and high-level members of the military sanctioned by the United States for allegedly colluding with drug traffickers."

If it was heading to Florida or Mena, Arkansas it would of had safe passage. Remember Operation Watch Tower? It must have been a Farc trip as opposed to a Narco trip otherwise they wouldn't have shot it down. Video clip.

Ottawa pledges 100 more cops to fight Surrey Drug War

The Vancouver Province is reporting that Ottawa has pledged to hire 100 more Mounties in Surrey to respond to the dramatic increase in recent drug related shootings. What a crock of sh*t that is. You can fill every donut shop in Surrey with cops and it won't do a thing to stop the drug related violence as long as you continue to let drug dealers sell crack in Newton and outside the Front Room. If you don't arrest the crack dealers you are wasting everyone's time and money.

It's also a waste of time if you don't transfer Bill Fordy out of Surrey and put a professional in that will actually do the job. In the /80's when the US crack epidemic was thriving in south Seattle, I knew of two different police officers, as soon as they started putting pressure on the crack dealers and arresting them, they were transferred out of the area. We can't stop the gang violence until we stop the corruption in office that enables it and profits from it.

Welcome to the Brave New World where money talks and the bullsh*t never stops.

Police incident in New Westminster

News 1130 is reporting that there is a police incident at 1st & Royal Ave New Westminster. They also claim that it extends across New West, south Burnaby and into South Van. The Vancouver Sun reported that it was likely about "Police searching for an armed and dangerous man and woman following an attempted shooting and car chase through New Westminster, Burnaby and Vancouver."

Scan BC reported that #PortCoquitlam #RCMP are on scene with a person who has been shot in the head out front of a residence at 1100 Clerihue Road - unconfirmed. Global is reporting there was a shooting in Burnaby Tuesday night.

News 1130 is reporting that IHIT has been called in after police found a body in Richmond Tuesday.

9 dead in Texas biker brawl - New Update

CNN is reporting that Gunfire erupted Sunday among rival biker gangs in Waco, Texas, leaving at least nine people dead. Three rival groups were present. The violence erupted shortly after noon at a busy Waco marketplace along Interstate 35 that draws a large lunchtime crowd.

Seemingly it was between Bandidos and Cossacks. Law enforcement officials said the gun battle was primarily between the Bandidos and Cossacks gangs, a continuation of a long-running feud between the two groups, though members of the Scimitars and two other gangs were also involved. Texas police say 192 people are to face organized crime charges after the Waco bike-gang shooting that left nine people dead and 18 others injured.

Update: Mixed reports are coming in on this. It has been claimed that it was the police that fired all the shots which resulted in all the fatalities. That is worth finding out.

NEW Update: Breitbart.com is confirming those rumours by quoting a different account of what happened by the Aging Rebel. The Aging Rebel claims "When the restaurant refused to ban the Confederation of Clubs, police stationed at least 22 cops including ten Swat officers from the Waco P.D. and the Texas Department of Public Safety in the parking lot outside the restaurant. They did not station either uniformed or plain clothes officers in the restaurant."

"The shove in the bathroom became a scuffle in the restaurant. When about 30 Bandidos, Cossacks, Scimitars and other bikers spilled into the parking between the Twin peaks and the Don Carlos Mexican restaurant next door, the police were waiting for them. The scuffle became a knife fight and several men were stabbed. When one of the combatants produced a gun the Swat team opened fire with automatic weapons. Multiple sources have told The Aging Rebel that all of the dead were killed by police."

OK so the bikers claim everyone shot dead was shot by the police. Not necessarily a reliable source but at this point I'd say it's one step more reliable then the police on the scene which changes the events completely. Yes a fight broke out and yes someone pulled a gun and was going to shoot someone. So why not just shoot the guy who pulled the gun? Perhaps they also shot guys who pulled knives and were stabbing people.

We're never going to find out what really happened. The bikers who would have been shot by the biker who pulled the gun are still going to complain about the police saving their life. Just as the ones who were going to get stabbed next by the bikers with the knives are going to complain the police saved their life as well. The underlining question is, did SWAT over react and just use it as an excuse to exterminate bikers? We know a fight broke out and we know there is past history with those clubs. The Bandidos trying to tax the Cossacks. However we also know there is past history in Waco Texas with the Branch Dividians.

East Vancouver residents complain about dug related crime

This is the same problem that keeps repeating itself like a broken record. Residents complain about drug related crime while the police and the city refuse to do anything about it. The Vancouver Province is reporting that Residents of an East Vancouver neighbourhood say the City of Vancouver must respond to a “surge” of prostitutes, crime and drug activity that they say is endangering area families and harming children. The petitioners want the city to bar prostitution from residential neighbourhoods and contain it within a “red-light” district.

Banning drug addicted prostitution from residential neighborhoods is a no brainer. Yet creating a red light district is indeed problematic because drug addicted prostitution is nasty. The residents are fed up with the bizarre extreme they are facing and are willing to resort to any compromise to get it out of their neghourhood. Kensington-Cedar Cottage may be in East Vancouver but it is nowhere enar the DTES and it is indeed full of kids. Allowing that kind of criminal activity in a residential nehgbourhood is in itself criminal. So is rewarding outrageous behavior.

Likewise the Vancouver Province is reporting that "four men charged after a Downtown Eastside drug den was shut down and the premises sold have had their drug charges stayed by the federal Crown. Randolph Brown, Shawn Brown, Mark Chung and Dennis George Knibbs were charged on a 15-count indictment after police searched the former Backpacker Inn in the 600-block Alexander Street and seized more than $300,000 worth of cocaine, heroin, marijuana and crystal meth. An estimated $50,000 in cash was also seized."

Do you remember that case? The police sent out press releases patting themselves on the back for busting a ruthless drug ring that was exploiting addicts and the crown drops the charges. The pattern of corruption continues. Once again the problem is the public drug dealing of crack.

Handing out free crack kits or free crack pipes is not the answer and is the exact opposite of the New York model everyone raves about. Crack pipe vending machines aren't the answer either. They are promoting the problem instead of confronting it. Homelessness and rising rents are a legitimate concern. People need homes not drugs.

Alberta lawyer goes to jail for mortgage fraud

The Edmonton Sun is reporting that "a 'rogue' lawyer who was the complicit 'lapdog' of the ringleader of a $6 million Alberta mortgage fraud was put behind bars Friday for his part in the financial crime. Roy Elander, 65, was sentenced to 3-1/2 years in prison and ordered to pay $426,000 in restitution after earlier being convicted of 14 counts of fraud over $5,000. The judge ruled Elander was “instrumental” in facilitating the central Alberta mortgage fraud - orchestrated by Allan MacMullin - while acting as a lawyer for both the financial institutions involved and the straw buyers. "

The Edmonton Sun previously reported that the actual ringleader, Allan MacMullin, was given a 10 year sentence and ordered to pay more than $1 million in restitution to two financial institutions and various individual straw buyers after earlier being convicted of 38 counts of fraud over $5,000.

Another case of Mortgage Fraud in Alberta involved more than 100 people including Devinder Shory, Stephen Harper's Conservative MP for Calgary Northeast. CBC reported that the Bank of Montreal settled out of court with all but a handful of the 160 people involved after the insurance fund for lawyers, the Alberta Lawyers Insurance Association (ALIA) agreed to pay $9.2 million to BMO to settle the case on behalf of all 17 lawyers named in the suit which stopped the RCMP's criminal investigation dead in it's tracks.

Calgary Hells Angel associate Ali El-Sayed was convicted of being a "ringleader" of another mortgage fraud in Alberta. Ken LeBlanc and Ali El-Sayed's other associate Jahan Meshkati was shot dead in BC last year. Nobody likes a scammer.

Reno Lee murder

Police aren't saying exactly how or when Reno Lee was murdered but they are saying they found Lee's body north of Balcarres, Saskatchewan which is north west of Regina and the investigation began on April 23. On May 15th CJME reported that the Regina Police Service announced John Earl Desjarlais, 30, has been charged with first-degree murder in the death of Reno Lee.

CJME is also reporting that Four people are charged with first-degree murder: 31-year-old Daniel Theodore, 21-year-old Andrew Michael Bellegarde, 30-year-old Bronson Gordon, and Desjarlais. Desjarlais was already facing charges of kidnapping and aggravated assault in connection to Lee's death. Joni Victoria Reed, 29, has been charged with being an accessory after the fact to murder. CTV is reporting that 30-year-old Bronson Chad Gordon of Regina was arrested in Edmonton. CTV posted the above picture of Bronson who is one of the four men charged in Reno Lee's murder.

Newfoundland drug bust tied to Whiterock

BC Local News is reporting that "A White Rock man has been arrested on the East Coast in connection with one of the biggest drug busts in Newfoundland and Labrador’s history. Arlen Nathan Hodge was due to appear in Newfoundland Provincial Court today, on drug-related charges." 10 kilograms of cocaine, 300 pounds of marijuana, two kilograms of pure MDMA and two kilograms of a substance known as ‘shatter’, which is a chemical derived from marijuana were seized." The Telegram has posted pictures of the suspect.

46 Pharmacies confronted for abuses to the methadone program

Well this is a small step forward. The Surrey Leader is reporting that "The B.C. government intends to effectively shut down as many as 46 Lower Mainland pharmacies by excluding them from the PharmaCare program in the wake of a review that flagged various abuses. Letters have gone out to the pharmacies giving them three weeks to argue why they shouldn't be denied the ability to bill the publicly funded drug plan effective next month."

"A regulatory change that took effect in December now allows the ministry to refuse to do business with pharmacies with a history of problematic business and billing practices, and forces them to disclose their ownership, management and track record."

At least we're starting to talk about some of the many abuses in that system. Slum Lord Greg Woolsey brought his DTES scam to Surrey. We was one of the slum lords that forced tenants to get their methadone prescriptions filled though him. He was running bogus recovery homes in Newton. They were flop houses where addicts could do drugs and use tax paid methadone.

This recent article is referring to scams the actual pharmacies pull. Yet the biggest and most costly scam of all involves the doctors over prescribing it in the first place. The idea of the methadone program is to help addicts get off of heroin. The purpose of the methadone program is not to create a million addicts to methadone. The biggest problem is the fact that it is VERY rare for anyone to be weened off methadone once they're on the program. This means doctors, pharmacists and drug companies and making a huge amount of money by scamming tax dollars.

Another scam is the fact that recovery homes like the John Volken Academy that actually teach addicts life skills, give them a job and help them get off drugs instead of turning them into methadone addicts can't get government sponsorship. This perpetuates the tax fraud.

The review found methadone costs covered by PharmaCare have climbed by an average of 7.6 per cent a year since 2001 to nearly $44 million, making it the program's second-highest drug cost." What about all the drugs seniors need but can't get coverage for? This pharmaceutical scam is bleeding our system dry. It's like you can't get an MRI but you can get free heroin at the Not very Safe Injection site. That is messed up.

Afghanistan heroin bust

This one's kind of baffling. There was a big song and dance patting everyone on the back for breaking up a heroin ring that was bringing heroin into Canada from Afghanistan. 37 kilos of heroin were seized. That is a fair amount and a job well done. Yet it's all so conflicted.

After all this was heroin coming in from Afghanistan. Insp. Cal Chrustie, a spokesman for the RCMP’s Federal Serious and Organized Crime unit (FSOC), told reporters “The feedback we’ve received recently is we haven’t seen a number of shipments coming into Canada of Afghan heroin recently.” That's the problem right there. Afghanistan supplies 92 per cent of the world’s opium.

In 2001 the Taliban had brought opium production to a grinding halt. After the allied invasion Afghanistan once again became the world's largest producers of opium. So if Afghanistan is the largest producers of opium in the world, why aren't we seeing many shipments coming into Canada? Are we not looking for them? Would that interfere with our allies who are guarding, protecting and promoting the opium trade in Afghanistan? Just like in Vietnam.



US Soldiers are protecting the opium crops. That is the biggest con of the Brave New World. They claim that if we don't do it the Taliban will. Yet that is a lie because the Taliban were the ones that brought opium production to a grinding halt. We are the ones that reversed that trend.

This drug ring was sure taking a round about route to get to Canada. It wasn't coming from China like all the huge shipments. The Vancouver Province reported that "Shipments originating in Afghanistan traveled primarily by air - either on people’s bodies or in their luggage - through Johannesburg and Dar es Salaam, then to Brussels and on to Canada. The shipments were then distributed to Montreal, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver." Not like the half ton shipments coming here from China. Sounds more like a sting operation then the disruption of a real network.
