Murder of a good man--shameful

[hskwarrior]

I have the unfortunate opportunity to inform anyone here that may have known a Mr. Alan Leung who was murdered yesterday in his place of business.

I am personally sadened because he was friends with my sifu who introduced me to him. I used to look forward to running into him when i'm in chinatown. Now i will only remember him when i go there. that sucks bigtime. He was really a nice person, regardless of being the president of such and such tong.

Mr Alan Leung was the brother of White Crane sifu Leung Kwan.
There is talk of a possible tong war now.

anyways i've attached a newsbrief on the murder of this respected man.

How much does that suck.

Spent time with Leung brothers when I was in San Francisco back in the day... sorry to hear, but can't say I'm surprised...

REST IN PEACE

Rest In Peace.


The Chinese still do things their "own way", even in America. Being a member of the martial arts community as well as taiwanese american who is not ignorant of such "situations" this event has affected me as well.

hopefully one day things will change.

sorry dude ....

few things suck worse than that.

[hskwarrior]

it really does suck.

but i will be going to the funeral with my sifu soon.

I just hope chinatown doesn't go to war. that wouldn't be safe.

the crazy thing is you know there will be hella f.b.i. taking pictures.

i'll make sure to smile nice for the camera.

Im with greencloudtj

[SimonM]

Now, come on, the Tongs aren't exactly gangsters....

Just "legitimate business men" involved in a "fraternal organization". ;)

I played pool with a guy I suspect was Triad once.

I am sorry to hear of this man's death. I have a strong distaste for cowards who shoot unarmed people and run.

[johnyk]

I did not know him,
but may he rest in peace.

[Hieronim]

well the reason I ask is it seems kung fu and the triads/tongs go together at least in chinatown so theres gotta be some hardcore kungfu ppl on this forum connected no?

[Oso]

I don't know anything.

Ask that guy over there.

[Green Cloud]

I am sorry and wish that his familly find peace.

hskwarrior: sorry to hear about the loss of your friend.
