Funny how this thing comes up every now and then. I ain't talking about the initial issue, but those who have the attitude of "F**k 'em, this is Amurrica ..." While in a sense you are 100% right, there are also these things known as consequences. You can wear whatever you choose. But you might face severe consequences, legal or otherwise. The otherwise tends to be humiliating and sometimes painful.
Whether you choose to acknowledge it, whether you choose to like it, there are protocols in the muttersickling world. You might go a lifetime of riding and never even be aware of 'em. And you might take a 1 mile ride and fall right into the middle of a war. Doesn't matter one bit what you think, it is what it is.
Good advice... For folks who have a relatively short attention span, I'd urge you to at least read "Protocol Basics" from the Earthlink URL. If you read and understand those points, you'll have no trouble with MC patcholders unless you're spoilin' for a fight.
masterblaster, you obviously have no clue as to the ruthlessness of some clubs. Pulling a .45 on a club member will get your house burned down with you and your family inside it. An assult on a club member is akin to declaring war on the club. There are unwritten rules in the world of motorcycling. Like it or not thats the way it is......................BG

That goes both ways!
Fear is what gives power, I don't fear them they have no power.
I show respect and that is what it is really about, what is given is returned.
Just so we are all clear on this Mr. King FLH, you are saying you would have no problem walking into an outlaw biker bar or showing up at Sturgisor Daytona wearing their club colors and you would proudly proclaim to them "Ill wear WTF I want"? ...............BG
Some of you guys don't have a clue what could happen when you step on somebody's toes or show disrespect. You may be approached and asked to take off your vest and if you don't comply they might just take it.No I don't belong to a MC but I do have respect for them.If you go out of your way looking for trouble you will surley find it.Don't ever go out with the F em attitude, you tramp on one of there toe's you just tramped on all of there toe's. Just my 2 cents
