Do you know what happens to a 20 or 30 year old after 20 years?

You guys can make all the fun about it you want from behind your keyboards. Some of these MCs take their shit real serious. Guys watch SOA? Yeah well, that is pretty close. You so much as start a 3 piece patch club without the consent of the CoC of your area, you will get F'ed with. You don't want to be hanging at your spot and have them roll up for a kickstand party. You don't like it? They don't care. I'm not spewing some tv bs either.

True... they usually only care about each other, not the general public.
Yeah but those fire & police dept groups aren't really true MCs. |

HBO did a documentary a while back on a gang in the bronx called the ching a lings. Mostly latino bikers and they seemed to be a local smallish club. Actualy saw a guy with their colors a few months ago so I guess theyre still around. I wonder if they have to pay up to the angels or whoever is the dominant outlaw club in NY now. |

You mean truly stupid? Because that's what ALL clubs are, IMO. A motorcycle is a transportation device, nothing more. The moment these idiots finally realize that, we'll all be better off. |

I actually watched a special the other day about an undercover ATF agent who infiltrated the Mongols in California. Crazy fucking shit. What I mainly got out of it is if we ended the war on drugs and firearms then those groups would be demoted down to riding tricycles because that is all they could afford. They make their money from drugs and firearms since they have no real life skills. Get rid of that and they have no money and become the bum on the street begging for change or at the most breaking into your home trying to steal your flatscreen. If they do get a job, maybe they'll make enough digging ditches to afford a Honda Rebel.

What seperates the "true" MC is the CoC and the pecking order you are put in by the dominate club of that area. I'm not supporting this in any way, I'm just trying to explain it. I have a few buds in various MC or RCs. Some in the dominant club of Detroit and some in the police club and fire clubs. The police clubs act all cocky cause they know as soon as it goes south, they'll instantly become cops instead of riders. It's BS. Do you all remember that big gun fight in sturgis or somin between a police club and a 1% club? This all might be something that some don't know anything about. |

Yeah I remember reading some of the "laws" of some 1% club, talking about how new clubs can't be created unless they petition to the dominant club. WTF is that about? The whole idea of giving a shit whether another group of people call themselves a club and make vests for themselves is so ridculous I can't understand it. Unless it's simply about extortion and money -- Now that I can understand. But if it's about "Only the dominant club can show their colors in this town", that's fucking stupid. People should be beyond that after age 25 or so.
