From Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo to a Pigeon Shoot in 72 Hours
|
|
Dear Friends, In the space of 72 hours, SHARK went from the nearly two-week long cruelty of the Cheyenne Frontier Days rodeo in Wyoming to a four-day massacre at the Wing Pointe canned hunting dump in corrupt Berks County, Pennsylvania. In Cheyenne, the victims were horses, calves and steers, all of whom were brutalized, injured and killed by phony cowboys. In Pennsylvania the victims were of course pigeons tossed out of boxes and shot by the scum of the human gene pool. Though we had little time running from one part of the country to the other, we wanted to expand the battle against pigeon shoots by live streaming video of the pigeon shoot. Even though we were broadcasting from a remote, rural location, the experiment worked, and we went far beyond the original two-hours a day we had hoped to be able to live stream. Those who watched online saw more than just the shoot itself, they experienced the unexpected at the same time we did. We were live streaming when Wing Pointe and Carlton Pools owner Joe Solana (the Slobfather) ordered a PA State Trooper to hand deliver to us a letter at our location in the woods bordering Wing Pointe. The letter was from Perry Township saying they had given Solana a zoning permit for a helipad.

1. Joseph Solana Jr. (AKA Slobfather) and pigeon shooter Ken Hassis talking a PA State Trooper into hand delivering a private letter to us in the woods. 2. The trooper dutifully delivering Solana's private letter. 3. Our Angels continued to fly that day and the next day even though they were shot at and hit. All of this went out as it happened on our live stream.

Solana thought that somehow that was supposed to shut down our Oktocopter flying operation. It was a ploy of course. We knew from talking to the FAA that what we were doing was legal, but it was shocking that a State Trooper would act as an errand boy for a rich landowner when the same State Police had refused to come to our location when I was violently attacked and bloodied by Stephen Spaar. Speaking of him, another unexpected live stream moment was when Spaar walked (or ran) by our position and we turned our camera on him. When Solana's plan to use the State Police to cower us into shutting down our flying operation completely failed, and we sent our copter up time and time again, the other side decided to take action. On Friday, when a reporter and cameraman from FOX 29 news in Philadelphia were in the woods with us, someone from Wing Point shot at and struck our Angel aircraft. Fortunately, the Angel was able to return safely. The same trooper who hand delivered Solana's meaningless letter now refused to give us the same consideration. We had to send someone out of the woods to meet the officer and report the offense. So the Pennsylvania State Police were good for private mail delivery for Solana the Slobfather, but worthless for going to a crime scene and doing actual police work. The next day Wing Pointe threw away all discretion and had two shooters in the field, and easily in our view, actively firing upon our Angel. One of the gunmen was masked, but the other was very identifiable. This was broadcast live and our viewers witnessed a crime being committed as it was happening.

Even though Solana did all he could to stop our flying cameras from recording his acts of depraved violence, SHARK ruled the air. Solana was, shall we say, impotent to stop us. This brings us to a new series of videos we are releasing; "Pigeon Shoot Perverts." The first two are on YouTube HERE and HERE. There is a third video which we are working on which is outrageous and vile. You won't believe what we caught on camera until you see it, although we must warn you that it is disturbing. |
Pennsylvania State Police Refuse to Do Their Job - Again
|
|
After being given video documentation of the shooting of SHARK's Angel aircraft, including still photos of one of the shooters (the other shooter was masked), the Pennsylvania State Police sent us the following email:
Mr. Hindi,
I was unable to identify either individual in the photos and after discussing it with my Supervisor he decided that we did not have enough evidence to proceed any further with this investigation and he told me to close the report.
Tpr. Michael KOSLOSKY
Not enough evidence? I have seen a lot of absurdity from the Pennsylvania state police during my 20+ years of fighting against pigeon shoots, but this one deserves some kind of special award. We filmed the shooters, filmed them committing a crime, have a clearly recognizable shot of one of them, and nevertheless, the state police are impotent.
Watch the video and judge for yourself
The PA State Police are making it crystal clear that they are firmly wedged in the pockets of the pigeon shooters. While this comes as no surprise, it is rare that they are so open about it. Of course, when we hand them everything but the shooters' names and addresses, I guess they are in something of a corner.
When the state police are corrupt, and you have district attorneys who take contributions from pigeon shooters, and a state legislature that has proven for decades that it is subservient to the whims of the NRA, you certainly have a cesspool of corruption.
I have requested the identity, badge number and rank of the state police supervisor who ordered the end of the investigation. I doubt I'll get that info. Welcome to Pennsylvania.
What You Can Do:
Please politely contact PA State Police Commissioner Frank Noonan and ask that this be investigated

Hey Ken Hassis - Where's the Company Car???
|
|
Some old-time shooters attended the Wing Pointe shoot including Operation Bright Light subjects Peter Streletz (who brought the kids again), Richard and Jean Pieros and Miller Ford employee Ken Hassis.
SHARK protested twice outside Miller Ford in Lumberton NJ based on Ken's use of a company car with dealer plates that he had driven to every shoot we had seen him at. This resulted in a coverage in the local newspaper, which, we can assume, didn't go over well with the powers that be at Miller Ford.
When we saw Ken this time, he didn't seem very happy. Was it because he had to take his own car this time? That's right - he was no longer driving his Miller Ford vehicle but had to put some wear and tear on his own private car. Poor Ken.
 |
Kenneth J. Hassis in his car. Note the vanity plates. In Ken afraid he'll forget his own name so he had to have his initials on his car? Now that's vanity. Feel free to think what the "SL" stands for. We have a few ideas...
|
However, if he was hoping this would not associate his boss and company with vicious pigeon shoots, he really shouldn't have worn a shirt with the Ford Logo while he blasted pigeons to pieces. You might want to consider this if you're looking for a new car.

Action Alert: Wing Pointe to Hold Another Pigeon Shoot Labor Day Weekend!
|
|
Apparently four days of slaughtering small trapped animals wasn't enough to satiate the bloody desires of Slobfather Joe Solana and his pals, so there are going to hold another major shoot Saturday and Sunday, September 3 and 4.
Due to the success of live streaming at the last shoot, we'll do that again, and we have some surprises in store for the cowardly killers. We hope you can join us for certain to be a hard-hitting event. If you can make it to Wing Pointe that weekend to lend a hand filming vehicles entering and leaving Wing Pointe, please let us know. Email: Media@sharkonline.org We want to thank those who came out last time. You did a great job - thanks for giving your time to help this cause! |
Reverberations of Cheyenne Rodeo Animal Abuse to go on for years
|
|
The 2011 Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo is now history, but the memory of the abuse, injuries and deaths that occurred will live on. Twenty YouTube videos have already been uploaded exposing the cruelty and corruption of Cheyenne, but there will be many, many more to follow over the next year. I think I could easily post more than a hundred videos of 2011 Cheyenne, if I can just work it in with SHARK's other projects.
I hope you will remember that singer Sheryl Crow, a supposed champion of wild horses, performed at Cheyenne and never made any statement about the abuse. In fact, after Sheryl was done at Cheyenne she found time to visit Sea World in San Antonio, Texas. Nothing like hanging out with the prisoners in a whale jail as a chaser after rodeo animal abuse. Crow is the kind of low person who tries to play both sides of the fence, making pro-animal statements to get good publicity from caring people, while at the same time catering to animal abusers. It's time people stop allowing themselves to be manipulated by public relations flacks for celebrities like Sheryl Crow, and corporations like Coca-Cola, GEICO Insurance, and Dodge. It's time we look the truth in the face and deal with it.  |

Turtle Abuse at Snapperfest 2011 - Aurora, IN

Last Saturday, Janet Enoch and another SHARK investigators headed to Snapperfest, a moronic activity designed by and for

inbreds in which turtles are abused and possibly injured and killed. This idiotic event is held at the Campshore Campground, outside Aurora, Indiana.
Our investigators were stopped at the entrance of the campground and questioned as to who referred them. It was as if we were headed to a drug deals, cockfight or

dogfight. The investigators tried to bluff their way through, but the paranoia of the inbreds was strong, and the investigators were turned away. The investigators set up outside the entrance of the Campshore Campground and videotaped and shot pictures of those going in to the campground. Like the Pennsylvania pigeon shooters, there was the usual acting out and flipping off. We will be posting a video of this soon.
An Ohio TV station "covered" this event, but it wasn't what anyone would call a banner day for journalism. The reporters were there only for the first couple of minutes of the start of the event and didn't really take much video of the actual event and instead focused on the people, so you can't really see what is going on. Intentionally poor journalism or plain incompetence? Judge for yourself. See it Here. Feel free to leave your comments on the

| newspaper's Facebook page.
The inbreds claim they've been committing this abuse for about twelve years, so they are predictably hiding behind "tradition," just like those who promote rodeos, circuses, bullfights, cockfights and dogfights.
As is so typical these days, local authorities provided no help whatsoever. Any time you find organized, persistent animal abuse, you also find weak, incompetent and/or corrupt leadership.

Someone is copying the pigeon shooters and covering their license plate.

In some ways, things appear to be getting worse instead of better. No wonder the United States is racing to become a third world country.

"Kindness and compassion towards all living beings is a mark of a civilized society. Racism, economic deprival, dog fighting and cock fighting, bullfighting and rodeos are all cut from the same fabric: violence. Only when we have become nonviolent towards all life will we have learned to live well ourselves." - Cesar Chavez, civil rights and labor leader, founder of the United Farm Workers
