Well put!!! That's exactly what I was thinking.

Seriously, the only people that have ANY idea what a 3PP means are patch holders, some cops, and the people who read this forum. Most don't know, and the 1%ers know that most people don't know, and it's really not worth confronting a retard and drawing the attention of law enforcement because you beat up a retard for wearing an SOA shirt.

If I see somebody wearing that shirt with a bottom rocker, I'll snicker...So will most 1%ers.

I'll buy that might happen. The problem is now you have to explain to the offender "why" he can't wear it.....and as brenn so eloquently stated, it'll be like talking to a retard....Hardly worth the effort.

They have been on flea bay for awhile...I can't imagine anybody wearing one. What I find even more surprising is the new line of HD shirts that bear an eerily close resemblance to the skull and crossed pistons of the Outlaws MC logo.

I had a 1%er pull up to me one day when I was parked on the shoulder of the road minding my own business. He asked me if I was ok.

Its been a long long time since I've even held a conversation with a patch holder, but that surprises me. My experiences tell me they wouldn't give something they know to not be real on some one they know to be a civilian a second thought. Times do change though.

My only intent for posting this originally is that I find it funny that a dealership would have these when the MOCO itself did not ever want to recognize the HA's. I guess anything for a buck!

It wouldn't surprise me to see the official licensed shirts sold at a dealership. They look nothing like a three piece patch. What really surprises me is that they are selling counterfeit t-shirts. A licensed Harley dealer could get into a lot of trouble selling this ****.

Doesn't surprise me at all.
