Never head of the club. Just last month me and my dad ws talking about how alot of the public still look down on bikers/riders even though most of us are just normal working people that like to ride. The news will always jump on a band wagon and try to make a gorup look bad. I have no problems witih any clubs, I don't care to be a part of them, but what thye do is there biz.

Some of the most brutal, senseless treatment I have seen of defenseless people on TV didn't involve a motorcycle club at all.

They have a presence here in north-central Ohio. You don't see the patch much in the area though. There was a shooting in nearby Marion (late last winter or early spring) at a club party. One guy killed and another severely wounded (head shot IIRC).

Sounds like a handy place to get shot!

Since "m/c"s are all made up of doctors, lawyers, and Sunday school teachers one could get patched up, a legal defense rep, and forgiveness all at the same place!!!

Yeah...getting stopped by the police for no reason, stealing and killing, prison, getting shot at by other clubs...yep, fun for young and old. And nice thread revival.

I don't know about your world but in my world people getting threatened, assaulted, shot and/or murdered is not common place. Guess it all depends on the kind of activities you get involved in.

I never heard of them until I saw some of the herd at a bike show/swap meet near Boyertown last year (Jake's). I didn't realize that they were a 1% club and gave them the old stare-back as they stared us down. Buncha' scrufty lookin' mother f*ckers on mostly POS bikes, just sittin' around trying to look bad *** and intimidating.

Fun? Nope, not IMO. You might as well paint a huge "F*CK YOU LEO" sign on your back and prepare to get hassled for anything/everything you do.
