"Released from custody"! They are already out? They must not be considered dangerous or a risk to our community.

I suspect the main issue is that the guns were not registered.

And, I will assume that they were not stored properly either.

Everyone must feel comforted that these items were found and seized before any harm could be done.

Notice the T-shirt. A new way of identifying themselves.

Wouldn't it be nice if every poster on here sent a letter to their MP and cc'd it to their MLA?
The only way you are going to change the law to ensure people found in these situations with loaded and I bet guns smuggled from the USA, is to lobby politicians for a change in the way bail is granted and longer sentences for violent crimes. Right now Judges and Crown prosecutors have to use case law, decisions made in the past for similar bail and sentencing. So, put your money where your mouth is, tell the people who can effect change. I have.

Will the police inform the media, then me when it is a no longer an "alleged" gang house?

I seems that every week these GTS guys are making the paper (well by the local detachment anyway.... what is that gang task force doing ???). I was downtown the other day and I could not help notice a "GTS" tattoo on the side of some big guys neck! Well as if it is not obvious. The people of this town need to make a stand against these scum. I for one will start by identifying them when I see them and telling the cops where they are. Especially if they are in my neighborhood. Lets put some pressure on these guys. Lets learn their names and let them know we know who they are! Publish them anonymously, decline doing business with them, put pressure on the city to refuse business licenses if any of them have businesses here (Like the renegades). It's our town, not theirs and if they don't like it they can leave! The only way we are going to get rid of this problem is by helping, not bitching about nothing being done. Now is our time to do something about it instead of trying not to be involved. Come on Prince George, is it their town or ours!
