On a thread about the Women’s MC club, called the Litas, they kept calling them badasses. I’m sure they’re pretty, interesting, Skilled motorcycle riders. But why are they badasses?

I don’t hang with murderous criminals, so most of the badasses I know are veterans, or police officers. Some doormen.

I was a doorman on Rush Street in Chicago. I broke up a few fights, but I’m no badass. One guy I worked with was though. His Dad was a Chicago cop. We worked with a nice guy who would always get in a fight when he was drunk. One night we could see the writing on the wall, so my buddy took a broomstick that had an eye with the bar keys attached to it. He took the keys off, so it was just a stick with an eye sticking out. When the 240 lb drunk started a fight, the wiry 6’2”, 190 lb doorman walked up, whacked him upside the head, pulled it forward opening up a jagged, 1/2”deep cut. Big man fell like a pile of rocks. I thought that was cold, but efficient. There were no repercussions back in 1979.

So that’s the kind of guy I think is a badass. Quiet, polite, but strong in mind and body. They don’t bully people, but they don’t take any crap.

I could tell tell stories about a Racine cop I knew that was a defensive tactics instructor, and Vietnam Marine veteran, but I don’t know what the statute of limitations is.

 

This is pretty BadAss:

 

Not really a definition, but along the lines of what Ron750 said, a true badass is usually the last guy you would think of as being a badass....

 

Those girls are all posers, just like my girlfriend

 

They may be cute ***'s, smart ***'s, fat, saggy or lazy ***'s but bad ***'s they ain't.

 

A couple of those girls look like they started out as guys.

 

This is a Bad ***.
