Out of all the bikers only a minority of them are thugs. Almost all of them just want to ride a bike in leather. It's like any place really you get the good apples and the few bad apples, that being said these did commit crimes
Speaking only of the bandidos, they are currently ranked the forth largest organized criminal gang in the usa. To even join the bandidos requires you to have been involved in acts that are of a illegal nature to be considered trust worthy. Then you have to sign over everything you own to the club. Ex. House, cars, your bike.. Ect. They are indeed an organised crime organisation. It is also a well know fact of just about every biker club that you have to ask permission to fly your mc colors in texas from the bandidos, or exactly what just happened, will happen.
Yes that's why it's important when people say outlaw bikers not to get defensive about what is being said. It makes everyone look dumb.
It is indeed fascinating to watch where this hopefully obvious JOKE thread goes.... The loss of human life is always tragic; the humor lies in the absurd scale of this incident (170 arrests!) involving five biker gangs at an apparent 'summit' at an aptly named Twin Peaks restaurant. Some takeaways so far: 1. All bikers are not criminals, all criminals are not bikers, but all criminal bike gang members are criminals and bikers. 2. Some biker clubs provide very worthwhile charitable work and donations. 3. Always wear your helmet. 4. Never tip over another biker's motorcycle. Oh, and I'm still looking for a brick to slap myself with Omar.
Saying outlaw biker imply that bikers are outlaws is dumb .people regardless of having a bike or not can be outlaws or not outlaws. Why didn't you just call them outlaws. Hmmm biker outlaws extends to a racist point of view. Same as saying any other racist comment like white trash ect. Could just call the person trash regardless of color but not color or in your case bikes matter emotionally somehow to you so you connect outlaws to bikers. And what does out law mean. Hmm a person that steps outside the law maybe. Let's see I can name countless outlaw presidents mayors gov kings queens ect that never rode bikes.nor were they condemned for acting outside the law in most cases , it actually elevated their careers. Anyhow let me know if this is to much for you to absorb at once bud I slow down to 1 sentence per post
Being the term outlaw bikers refers to 1%ers it isn't so dumb. Now we can just say bikers and put them all in the same barrel if that better for you. Think about it. Out on a Sunday cruise with the old lady. You got it leathers on. Some shade. Whoop whoop pulled over for being on a nike and looking like a 1%er. Sometimes those little patches are hard to read and blurring when looking at a moving object. It's hard to tell if that's a 1%ers patch or not. Oh you are a doctor! Sorry Doc this is how we profile in america. Pew pew pew 3 to the back. Pow one for that old lady of yours. Have a nice day. Is that your little doggie in the side car? *punt*
I was just playing around, but what isn't funny is that guys on Harley's from the lower middle class middle class do get pulled over on bikes. If you look a little rough around the edges for sure. I mean no one is punting the dogs, or shooting their old ladies or anything. But who's old lady is getting shot be police in a profiling case? I leave your thread now op. Bikers have all kinds of legal support systems set up. Unlike CNN or FoX news the people know all about bikers and gangs. We live around them. The news ain't saying nothing. Peace.
Word is that it was the police that shot and killed those bikers. Not other bikers. They were just busy beating the out of each other.
RDV that's correct, 9 dead and 27 wounded by COPS, NOT BIKERS. I don't care what that stupid troll thinks, he/she probably so ugly he's tied in a corner and fed with a slingshot. Your a joke and have no clue about the real world.
Very amusing thread of bikers getting all defensive and uptight. If you're a biker and simply ride for fun then this thread is not about you so all the defence of bikers both isn't required or appropriate. It is however really funny to read . A good read with my morning cup of tea - thanks.
