Is it Illegal to be a Biker in Australia ?




Interesting blog from Long Ride shields in my e-mail today.

 

Its not all biker clubs. Its only the ones the government defines as 1% clubs. I am a member of a Military Motorcycle Club and we have no problems.

There has been a change of government in Queensland so these restrictions may be relaxed.

 

 

So he was stopped 21 times for wearing a vest? 6 or 7 cops standing around acting like he is some kind of mass murderer? I don't know if I could keep my cool for as long as he did.

 

That's the way it is when the cops have nothing better to do. Here in Japan you'll see 9 cop cars in a convenience store parking lot with all cherries flashing, as if an armed robbery had taken place and people were shot. But it's usually nothing more than somebody having made off with an item or two that they didn't pay for...

 

From the looks of it...they don't favor 1%er's and possible shake-down others...

 

It's not illegal to be a biker anywhere but when you're in or associated with certain clubs, you have to expect what they've done to follow you. Their past is now your past. And cops don't know what YOU have done, only what the club you're in has done, so they check you out. I was stopped 5 day out of 6 because I was in the dominant club in Dallas in the 70s. It's goes with the territory.

 

 

You and I may have crossed paths I ran out Kansas City around that time .



For the rest of this ;

You guys are killing me, always has been and always will be you fly an outlaw patch you have a target painted on your back just a fact of life. Problem today there's so many nickle & dime clubs popping up weekly the law isn't discriminating anymore in some places. As for that video you don't want the hassle don't fly a patch all the time otherwise take a man pill and deal with the the fallout.

 

True, but it can't be nearly as bad here as what was just depicted in that video.
