Your Sikhs today: Surrey BC edition

Meet Arman Singh (left) and Simarjeet Singh, members of Surrey BC's large and growing Sikh community. They have been arrested and charged after a brazen early morning shooting in Surrey on June 11th.

According to Inspector Singh (no relation) of the Surrey constabulary, his minioins were called shortly after 0600 to a home near 96 Avenue and 133A Street after reports that shots were fired. When officers arrived, they could see the damage to the exterior of the home. While people were inside, no one was injured.

Surrey's Extortion Response Team (ExRT) took the lead on the investigation and on June 12th, they executed a search warrant at two homes in Surrey. Four men were arrested during the execution of the warrants. 

Arman Singh, 21, has been charged with one count of reckless discharge of a firearm. Simarjeet Singh, 22, has been charged with one count of reckless discharge of a firearm. Police said both men remain in custody and as both are foreign (read: Indian) nationals, officers have contacted the Canadian Border Services Agency (CBSA) to find out how they got into Canuckistan. [Possibly students at the notorious Singh School of Truck Driving? Ed.]

The other two men arrested have not been charged with criminal offences at this time and are currently in the custody of CBSA who are giving them directions to the driver examination centere and welfare office.

Related statistics to ponder 

On Thursday, CBSA released new numbers, saying that since mid-June, they have opened 150 immigration investigations in the Pacific region, and issued 69 removal orders. Surprisingly, 49 people have actually been removed from Canada so far. 

Canada's Minister of Public Safety, Hon. Gary Anandasangaree (no relation) told the meeja that "Canadians deserve to feel safe in their homes, workplaces and communities. The government of Canada is working hard to stay ahead of increasingly complex international criminal threats like extortion." 

So far this year, Surrey police have received 128 extortion-related reports, including 20 shootings. Staff Sgt Singh told Global News, "Those numbers have thankfully come down a significant amount, where we are only seeing one or two shootings a month, but that is still one or two too many."

Walt sez: One or two Singhs is too many.

Citizen Vigilante has gone viral following intense attempts by Forces for Good (read: bleeding heart liberals and pro-immigration one-worlders) to ban the film. Here's the trailer.

It's a Uwe Boll film, starring Armie Hammer, about very controversial current events. Need we say more? Ed. is working on the download now and hopes to have it ready for you to view later today.

What is so rare as a Special Day in June

A Special Day in June is actually not that rare. The month of June is replete with Special Days of various kinds, commemorating or promoting Special Things and things that (IMHO) are Not So Special. There is one, however, which we do like to celebrate.

Saint-Jean-Baptiste is the patron of the province of Québec and French Canada. À tous nos lecteurs d'expression française: Bonne fête!

Here are some other Special Days you may have missed.

Yell "Fudge" at the Cobras in North America Day (June 2nd): Supposedly created so North Americans can shout the word "fudge" to keep venomous cobras away (despite cobras not being native to the continent). 

Impersonate Authority Day (June 3rd): A highly questionable day that encourages people to act like they are in charge, though you should probably skip trying this one on law enforcement. 

Repeat Day (June 3rd): A day designed to do things twice, a day designed to do things twice. 

National Gardening Exercise Day (June 6th): Celebrated by explicitly treating your backyard weeding and lawn mowing as an intense, high-performance athletic workout. (Walt likes this one.)

Upsy Daisy Day (June 8th): A day entirely dedicated to getting out of bed with a ridiculously positive attitude and a spring in your step. 

National Kiss a Wookiee Day (June 15th): A bizarrely specific, sci-fi-themed pop culture day urging Star Wars fans to show affection to their favourite fictional, hairy bipedal species. 

No Orange Clothes Day (June 16th): A mysterious day where the internet collectively decides that wearing the colour orange is completely forbidden. Canadian readers may have a different interpretation of this one.

International Panic Day (June 18th): An unhinged antidote to mental wellness days that encourages you to just let go and fully freak out over your daily stressors.

World Wide Hollerin' Festival (June 20th): An observance meant to preserve the historical, traditional art of loud vocal "hollerin'" used as communication before telephone lines existed.

Pink Flamingo Day (June 23rd): This day honors the iconic, tacky, plastic pink lawn ornaments invented in 1957. 

Cat World Domination Day (June 24th): A day coming up tomorrow that officially acknowledges what feline owners already know—our cats completely rule the house.

That's enough Special Days. Ed.

A very Florida story: Vicious pickle-ball player charged with assault

Meet Michele Bannister, 47, of St. Augustine FL. Ms Bannister, who appears to be something of a "tiger mom", was arrested at Treaty Park on May 31st after she allegedly struck an unnamed man "several times" in the head with a pickleball paddle after the victim criticized her son's style of play.

According to an affidavit obtained by Law&Crime, the alleged incident started when a match between Ms Bannister and the man turned heated over the retrieval of a ball. When the game was over, the man allegedly approached Ms Bannister's unnamed son to "critique" his playing style, which enraged the boy's mom.

Upon hearing the man allegedly confront her son, Ms Bannister "interjected herself" into the spat and got physically violent with her opponent. According to court documents, Ms Bannister, who is a local family nurse practitioner, left the man with multiple bloody cuts to his face. . 

Ms Bannister works for James M. Grimes, MD Orthopedics in St. Augustine, according to the company's website. Her profile says that before she was a nurse practitioner, Ms Bannister worked as a critical care nurse for 13 years, her profile said. She was also a helicopter mechanic in the Marine Corps. She's been described as an 'active mom' who enjoys participating in sports with her children.

Ms Bannister was released from jail after posting an $8000 bond and is set to appear in court on July 28th. Her lawyer, Rosemarie Peoples of the Smith & Eulo law firm, told the outlet that Ms Bannister's "heroic" actions were necessary in order to protect her son. "Michele Bannister is a mom, nurse, and model citizen," said her attorney. "She is wrongly accused of a crime; her actions were needed to stop a violent attempt to attack her young son. I expect that a jury of her peers will fully exonerate her heroic efforts to defend her child."

UPDATED: "Allahu akbar!" à Montréal? Errr, not exactly

The headline is pure speculation. The gunman who shot dead a civilian and a policeman today in Montréal's mainly Jewish Côte-des-Neiges ghetto neighbourhood may have been a Muslim. Or he may have been some other kind of anti-Semite. Or someone who decided to kill a few people regardless of their ethnicity or faith.

First the facts, then our questions. Just before noon EDT, Montréal police were called to the scene pictured above near the intersection of Trans-Island Ave. and Ave. de Courtrai, near the Supermarché PA on Westbury Ave. A man dressed in camo gear and armed with a "long gun" killed a civilian and a cop. A second cop, a woman, was wounded. The shooter was also shot dead.

The "armed threat" alert issued for the Côte-des-Neiges area was lifted around 1515. as "the immediate threat to the public is no longer present." Although officers on the scene initially told The Gazette they were searching for a possible second suspect, Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) Chief Fady Dagher later said he believes there was only one suspect involved in the shootings. 

The buildings in the area house condos, rental units, offices and commercial spaces, and are also home to many Jewish residents, many of whom reported numerous antisemitic incidents since the 7/10/23 attacks in Israel, including mezuzahs being knocked from doorways in the complex. 

More recently, the social-media account Leviathan identified a Montréal man who allegedly praised Hitler and threatened Jewish Montréalers, raising further alarm on Jewish social-media platforms. Police had not confirmed that the shooting was directed at the Jewish community, nor would Chief Dagher confirm who was responsible for killing the civilian victim. 

He urged the public and media outlets not to circulate graphic images, rumours or unconfirmed information. "Be very careful of rumours," he said. "The event that concerns us today has been neutralized. What motivated him is still unclear."

Well (Walt sez), what else could he say? Dead men, of which the shooter is one, tell no tales. The cops know his identity of course, but are keeping shtum about his ethnicity, his status in Canada ("refugee"? asylum-seeker? illegal alien?) and his religion (if any). Was it a hate crime? Or terrorism? Or both? Forgive us if we jump to a conclusion. If anything that suggests a possible motive is ever divulged by the politically correct authorities, we'll let you know.

UPDATE ADDED 23/6/26 at 0625 FMT: The man accused of killing a Montreal police officer in the city's heavily Jewish Côte-des-Neiges neighbourhood before being shot dead by police left behind a 104-page manifesto filled with explicit antisemitism, anti-Zionist rhetoric, Communist ideology, and grievances commonly associated with the online "incel" movement.

The manifesto repeatedly attacks Jews and Zionists, claiming there are "many Jews" within the Western ruling class and stating that the author sometimes refers to it as the "Judaeo-bourgeois class." 

A copy of the document obtained by Rebel News further alleges that "the influence of Zionist Jews upon the western bourgeoisie is in fact so strong" that it has shaped Western society itself, and goes on to assert that "Jewish interests dominate the levers of finance, media, and politics," describing this alleged influence as "pervasive and corrosive."

British PM Starmer resigns! What could possibly have gone wrong?

You won't be surprised, I'm sure, to learn that the image above was scraped from the Babylon Bee. Where else? Click here to read the Bee's version of the story. Then read on for Walt's comment.

Sir Keir Starmer, Prime Minister of the Disunited Kingdom resigned this morning after coming under mounting pressure from his own Labour Party. Questions are surfacing about what led to his decision to step down.

The threat to Mr Stormer's leadership, which had been building for months, increased ​sharply last Friday when Andy Burnham, the mayor of Greater (?) Manchester, won a parliamentary election to return to Westminster, beating ⁠a candidate from Nigel Farage's Reform ⁠UK party, which has led national opinion polls for more than a year.

The feckless Labour leader's fall from grace is directly attributable (IMHO) to the abject failure of Mr Starm and his pinko Labour government to deal with the fact that Once-great Britain has been overrum by Islamist hordes who are a law unto themselves, protected by the government and by police who now operate under a two-tier system -- white Anglo-Saxon Britons being on the lower rung of the ladder.

Nowhere is this more evident than in Manchester, where "Manchester rape gangs" have for decades been responsible for highly publicized child sexual exploitation and grooming gang scandals, most notably in towns like Rochdale, Oldham, and Bolton. 

These networks of Islamic immigrants from Pakistan and Bangladesh systematically targeted, groomed, and sexually abused vulnerable teenage girls (usually) for years, while police and other "authorities", including those charged with protecting children, have looked the other way and tried to pretend that it wasn't just a Muslim thing. Voters know the truth of it. Changing captains on the Labour Titanic isn't going to help.
