Shooting at a Kelowna Casino - Gangster Jonathan Bacon killed, Hells Angel critical UPDATE #202 - three arrests

[Guest The Brown Burrows]

Good shooting. The only thing is that there will be more now.

[JLumme]

What a tragic waste... of a Porchse.

[Common sense]

It's not exactly arguing, just responding to your stupid comments.

I'll enjoy being a internet tough guy because I called a scumbag a scumbag who has been a gang leader and been creating havoc for lots of innocents people.

Sorry I don't have any remorse for a moron who chose such a idiotic lifestyle. I don't think he should be rewarded with "Oh, I'm so sorry, RIP Mr. Bacon". Get real, he was a gang member, and no one cares if he dies besides he family members and "friends".

Where else am I suppose to call a moron a scumbag other then on the internet?

[Common sense]

Arguing with you guys is pointless.

Regardless, enjoy being tough on the internet the rest of your lives and have your heads down walking through the crowds in real life as to not get noticed.

Whatever makes you feel like a man I guess.

[Buggernut]

I'm not the one that's running my mouth. The internet had made too many people courageous these days.

Be it stuff like this, racism or whatever.

[JAH]

Maybe they should give these guys marksmanship training. 60 rounds from 3 feet away and only one guy dead?

That's poor shooting.

Like I said. I'm not asking to sympathize with this guy because I myself do not. I wont however, talk trash and calls him a scumbag or anything else like many of you guys have.

I seriously doubt any of you guys would say this to his or any of these "gangster's" faces. And that is why it's stupid and cowardly to do this.

Talking about the story (and backstory) like Wetcoaster is fine (In my opinion) but crossing the line is what some you "tough guys" write behind the security of noone knowing who you are.

[Wetcoaster]

Not really, the ratio of drug dealers that live free their entire lives to the ones that actually get caught or killed is gigantic.

[Wetcoaster]

Would not be surprised if the missing person set this whole thing up and double-crossed the other two guys...

[Wetcoaster]

I was unaware that these were mutually exclusive labels. Why can't he be both?

It's a pretty good bet that the guy is currently under investigation for something.

[LostViking]

No I wouldnt. But I also dont say it when I know that nothing will happen to me. Big difference. Essentially, back up your talk. Regardless if you're spewing that BS on the internet.

[ronthecivil]

As the Vancouver gang squad refers to them... the rich and the dead - first you get rich then you get dead.

Those who live by the gun will in all likelihood die by the gun.

An article with background on HA full patch member, Larry Amero was was seriously injured in the attack that killed Jonathon Bacon.

Injured Hells Angel linked to number of gangs

By Jennifer Saltman, The Province

A Hells Angel injured in the same shootout that left notorious gangster Jonathan Bacon dead Sunday has ties to members and associates of a number of Lower Mainland gangs.

Larry Ronald Amero, born in 1977, is a full-patch member of the White Rock chapter of the Hells Angels.

Amero leases three vehicles: a 2006 BMW M5, a 2007 Cadillac Escalade and a 2008 Chevrolet Silverado. The Escalade is a shared lease with his former live-in girlfriend, Sarah Trebble.

Trebble, a West Vancouver realtor, was acquitted this year of a charge of occupying a vehicle in which there was a firearm. The charge was laid after Trebble was found in a car involved in a shooting outside of the T-Barz strip club in Surrey in 2009. Police have alleged that Trebble is a known associate of high-ranking United Nations Gang member Barzan Tilli-Cholli.

Amero has also been photographed with one of the founders of the Independent Soldiers gang, Randy Naicker. Naicker was convicted of a drug-related kidnapping and extortion and was also the intended target of a shooting at a Vancouver halfway house. Another gangster — Raj Soomel — was killed instead.

Naicker and another Independent Soldier met with members of the Red Scorpions in 2006, reports state.

In December 2002, Amero was given a one-year conditional sentence followed by a year of probation after being found guilty of possession for the purpose of trafficking and production of a controlled substance.

The address associated with two of Amero’s vehicle leases is a $1.13 million Surrey property owned by a Ronald Amero.

Amero was in critical condition on Sunday. An update on his condition was not available Monday.

[Horny Manatee]

Yeah really, the only excuses I can think of is if they were provided weapons before this hit that they weren't really able to practice with in advance and couldn't control in full auto when the time came, assuming full auto was even used.

Or, maybe they shot decently enough but had pistol caliber SMGs and not assault rifles as seems to be reported.

Pistol caliber bullets are pretty marginal at getting inside vehicles, even angled auto glass will often deflect a bullet outright. If that was the case then maybe only a fraction of the rounds that were able to actually get inside the vehicle were able to do anything?

Typical mentality of a gangbanger right there. No one is allowed an opinion unless they are willing to get beat up or shot over it. Gangs would like us to think this way, so they can rule through fear, luckily it is simply not reality.

Sometimes people, like MegaNuck here, can get very frustrated. They are used to being able to simply punch someone in the face when something is said that they don't like, but when that power is taken from them, and they are forced to simply listen or ignore the opinion, they don't know how to deal with that situation. Anonimity makes d-bag toughguys powerless, and all of a sudden intelligence and debating skills become the most prominent forms of retaliation.

By believing in the incredibly outdated mantra of having to "back up your talk" you essentially rule out freedom of speech and opinion from society, and instead only the brave (or foolhardy) are allowed to be heard. Get your head out of the medieval ages and accept the times, people can speak, however they like, and no one has to back up a darn thing.

Good.
