I want to be known as Intel Chief of the MoFi detachment.
In fact, I demand it, goddammit.
Yeah. Let's form the Monkey Malitia.
Now give me a gun. I'll have a Sterling sub machine gun and a Glock 17, please.
Oh, and the Imperial March played whenever I enter a room.
Thks.

Shoot the filthy commie horse. In its long face.

co-founder of the Unified Network of Indo-Canadians for Togetherness and Education Through Discussion (UNITED).
I hate - HATE - tortured acronyms like this. They couldn't even get it right; It's more like UNOICFTAETD.
Why does "boyz" get the proper gangsta spelling, but the word "gangsta" does not?
Sounds like much of this could be solved by the United States legalizing marijuana.

Heh heh heh heh.

Yeah.
wow, this shit is good
Biscuit, anyone?
Oh duuuuude. A biscuit sounds sooooo good right now. Thanks.
hey, you got anymore of that weed?
From the first link: "Virtually all marijuana smuggling in the past fiscal year is either directly or indirectly tied back to the Indo-Canadian community".
This surprises me. Don't you have Hell's Angels or other bike gangs clubs out there in B.C.?
Does anyone know who controls the drug/gun trade on the Washington side of the border?
Also: "fiscal" year? Is that really what he meant to say???
weeds in the biscuits....

I think this post is attempting to link two dissimilar elements into one cohesive piece. The redneck malitia is more concerned with homeland security rather than drugs, and if there's an Indo-Canadian gang war on in Vancouver, the media are doing a good job of suppressing it.
Far out man.
heh...heh...he said 'supressing'...
Is there some inside joke that I'm missing, or did the drinking start eary today and I wasn't cc.'ed on the memo?

Oh yeah; they are said to control the Port of Vancouver. They are top dogs in the whole B.C. Bud trade but their are other groups who specialize in certain areas; the Vietnamese who run the grow-ops day-to-day, and the Indo Canadians who get it over the border.
One of the big reasons behind the specialization is that Indo Canadians have huge ties with the trucking business around these parts, and one tactic they employ is threatening small-time operator's families if a trucker does not let them stash product in their cargo.

Not dissimilar at all...both groups are armed, dangerous, and want a piece of the border; and the crews ready to go off over virtually anything. Also...do you not think Indo-Canadians might be mistaken for Middle Eastern terrorists by lunkheads with night vision?
As to media coverage; I don't know where you're located, but it's all over the place in the Lower Mainland - to such an extent that the Indo Canadian community feels its promoted the stereotype that all Indo-Canadians are gangsters.
National, local mainstream, local Indo-Canadian community
Six killings this year does not make a gangwar. Regardless, you're right in what you say in the first paragraph, moneyjane, I hadn't thought of it that way.
Fascinating stuff, MJ. I'd been following the doings of the Minutemen (Jeez Louise, what a name) on the Mexican border, because I worked on a documentary about the border in the Big Bend region of Texas a couple of years ago (huge govt. overreaction to 9/11, was the story -- I should do an FPP about it sometime), but wasn't aware that they were, uh, "mobilizing" on the Canadian border. And the Indo drug gang stuff, I was clueless about. Thx.

Oh. Better tell these guys, then. I didn't realise there was a yearly body quota for gang war status.
Some details from the first Minutemen article that caught my interest:
The top two officers of the Washington Minuteman Detachment of the Arizona-based army are disabled Vietnam veterans in their 60s....they check applicants' police records, and members on patrol will be properly instructed and supervised.LeBas, whose business card identifies him as "Intel Chief" of the Washington detachment, says he is a Canadian...LeBas was refused entry to Canada at the Sumas crossing two months ago after border officials discovered he had a record for bank robbery and other crimes.
LeBas claimed the record was manufactured by a U.S. intelligence agency...
It is intriguing that an ethnic group that seems like it would come under greater scrutiny at border crossings would have developed a niche specialty in getting the ganja across the border. Maybe the Minutemen want in on the action.
As Intel Chief of the MoFi detachment, guava, I'm gonna have to deny your allegations categorically. Also, we know where you live. Well, tracicle does. Well, she knows your IP address. So, you know, watch what you say. You're not against freedom, are you?
Heh...in Phonesexlandia, a "Minuteman" is a caller (usually clutching morning wood) who only lasts long enough for a one minute call, hence bringing down your average call length which lowers your pay rate.
