Safety Minister Declares BC Canadian Gang Capital
Van Loan says Vancouver Especially Bad
2/17/2009
Bad news from federal Public Safety Minister Peter Van Loan on the issue of gangs.
Van Loan says BC, and Vancouver in particular, has become the centre of organized crime in this country.
He says Metro Vancouver has not only the highest number of gangs but it's also got the highest number of very serious and sophisticated gangs.
Van Loan says making laws tougher against gangsters has been a priority of the Conservatives for several years, but each time they are stymied by the opposition parties in the commons.
The only punks they have were the ones the other punks shot and they were already on bail for gun related crimes. The manditory jail sentance for illegal handguns that the Conservatives forced through would have taken these punks off the street.
.. but BC judges don't have the balls or were paid not to use them.
