Interesting first post, a debate about rules. If you want to know the real truth, in your travels, if you run across an outlaw motorcycle club, maybe you should flag them down and ask them, I am sure they will educate you in a way that will satisfy your interest.

you are confusing clubs and gangs. a motorcycle club follows the laws of the land and also have rules for their members to follow. a motorcycle gang does not follow the laws that john q. public lives by. they have their own rules and regulations-and punishments.
do not flag down a club member that is flying 1% colors and ask them to explain things to you...you might not like the answer.

I am sure that you are not asking whether these sets of 'rules' are lawful or not. Usually that is what the problem is. They often have a code of honor within their club, that may be the set of 'rules' that you are referring to.

That's what i am really asking.
Why give up one set of rules/laws to go by another?

Not all MC go by the same rules, anymore than companies have the same rules. Just like someone going down the highway...one car is going the speed limit and another is going 20 over. They're not going by the rules/laws that were made. It's just what people want to do.
But like I once heard someone say, it's not against the law if you don't get caught.

outˇlaw
1.
a. A fugitive from the law.
b. A habitual criminal.
c. A rebel; a nonconformist: a social outlaw.
2. A person excluded from normal legal protection and rights.
3. A wild or vicious horse or other animal.
I don't think they join Outlaw MC's to be "law abiding citizens" or they'd call themselves "The Non-Outlaw Law Obeying Riders Club" which is just against their nature...
