POLICE, POLITICIANS AND MEDIA NEED HELL'S ANGELS

To the Editor:

(Re: Police swoop down on Hell's Angels and associates, The Port Perry 
Star, April 29.)

Are there more steadfast, more helpful friends of the police, the 
politicians and the media than the Hell's Angels?

I don't think so.

If there were no biker gangs, how would the police be able to justify their 
huge budgets, how would politicians promise to slay the dragon of organized 
crime and what would newspapers like yourself find to write about?

If drugs and prostitution were legal, which they should be if the Charter 
of Rights means anything at all, the Hell's Angels would disappear.

But, of course, that will never happen because the police, the politicians 
and the media all have a vested interest in continuing these ridiculous laws.
