Hey, I was there......don't forget the hockey bags full of cash.......people are Niave to think that organized crime don't have their hands in the mix. The majority is run by organized crime, not ALL but the majority of commercial sized cannabis facilities have ties to gangsters. These people are smart "business" people, if they are good you will never know they are involved, but don't fool yourself they are there. Not all gangsters are bad, no worse than politicians. They are people too.

They are. And the ones i have known...most would have been excellent business execs. Or rather they are. But when things dont go their way... things get real ugly real fast... when they dont really have to... thats my only beef....

By the by...on the way from Nanaimo last month i smoked myself silly on the ferry with a half dozen full patch guys. I havent laughed so hard in decades...

Most gangsters put up a facade to protect their image, they rely on this for respect. But most are normal down to earth people who are mostly in it to support their family. The normal joe doesn't have much to worry about gangsters, violence is usually only a last resort. they are people too. I would trust a motorcycle club member before I would trust a politician.
