CPS arrest 14 in gang sweep...kind of...not really...no...

[l/l/rX]

This article makes it sound as if they hit all these places in 1 day.
I know quite a few people on this list.

Ayana has been in jail for the last 3 months.

Justin Pilon is still dj'ing and has been on FB the whole day. He'll be at whiskey this Thursday DJ'ing. He already got pinched a while ago.

Leon Li, ya not surprised, he's been in and out since gr 12. Im pretty sure if anything he got pinched a month ago or so.

Pedro, i thought he quit, i just saw him not too long ago.

Kristina, pretty sure she was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Ionno i guess this article just goes to show how the media and cops collaborate.

And gang members? uuh... not quite. I would say they have connections, but not gangster persay. I dont know how gangster caucasian people can be. lol. jk

And seizing 16.5 kg's of cocaine is KIND OF hard to believe at the moment.

Leon Li, isn't he a HK popstar?

Ya, all these media releases are usually a summary of what they've done in a long period of time to ease the public's mind.

Sounds like they are pretty specific in their weighing. 853 grams? I believe it.

Crap - that's a lot of blow!

[FilthyMcNasty]

WOW!! 13000 worth of mushrooms. thats total bs. mushrooms usually go for 5 bucks a gram, maybe 10. 853*5=$4265. how do they calculate these ridiculus figures.

And they didn't specify street value for the mushrooms meaning the guys could have bought that for $800.

But if they were rolling around with weapons and drugs like the article says, who cares if they were gangsters? Get them off the streets any way possible.

[ryosuket]

the list is a list of people they have got in the last year
probably made it public to show the cops are getting people
but in reality half of this stuff is old news

Let me fix that up for you....

There you go! So they're calling it a gang related arrest......you said yourself they have connections to gangs......so therefore there is a gang relation to the arrest. And as I outlined, they're alleged gang members.......so I still don't see where it says in the article that they are gang members. Would you like to try pointing it out again?

Who the hell calls shrooms "Magic Mushrooms" lol
