Default Who knows what "Filthy Few" means

Some of the MC vests I've seen have a "Filthy Few" patch on them. I think I've seen it on HAs, Heavy Hitters, and others. Anyone know the meaning?

Edited: Changed "Dirty" to "Filthy". Thanks for the clarification.

It should be "Filthy Few" One of my buddies that prospected for HA before he came in the army said it was just the guys who were the first to show and the last to leave a party and would put anything in their body to get a buzz. There are tons of rumors. Do a search on Google and you will find al ot of BS on it. You would be hard pressed to find an HA members that have 1% patches too. Sonny Barger didn't like them back in the day since every MC was wearing them.

Do you mean, "Filthy Few"? It means that those who are members have killed for the club. I have heard of only one club that has this membership within. I won't mention what club, though.

I've heard that in several documentaries about the H.A.'s and other outlaw clubs.

Filthy Few, 81, nomads, red and white are all "Hells Angel" club terms, I've even seem some used in states that have outlawed MC clubs displaying their colors so the clubs use other terms for identification, merchandise lines, chapter names etc.
