You had better find the big boss in your state and ask permission. He will probably and most likely say NO!

I do see where your coming from... I have a Road Kill sticker with a skull on the back of my front fender... I've heard of guys who have the same sticker getting hassled by the 81 about the sticker (out of state) because the 81 didnt know that it was a MC shop out here on Long Island... even though I havnt been hassled or even talked to about it.. i guess its alright, but some people who dont know may take things serious.

Edit: This shop wasnt just for a certain group "Hells Angles, Pagans, ETC" it was for everyone who had a HD

BTW, I don't think it is something I would do. But I doubt the pastor wearing bright yellow vest on the beemer is going to get his head stomped. But that is just me. Maybe putting something to do with religion along with the 3-piece would make you a little safer too. Actually, make it "God's M/C". Can't nobody F with Gods crew.
By NO means should you count on that!!! There are areas that this would make you an even bigger target.. I tell my patches all the time.. You wanna go into that 1% club house and preach Jesus to em?? go right ahead.. But you better make darn sure the Lord told ya to do it.. If not, yer gonna be meetin him in a matter of minutes..

Our Patch is flying in this area ONLY because they allow it to..

I have lived on both sides of this Fence..

This is something you don't understand, something you won't understand, something that you will never understand... Just leave it alone!

Ask yourself, "Am I willing to die for this patch?"

I'd love to see you do it. There's nothing quite like a good beat down, especially when the idiot get smacked knew better than to get into somebody else's turf. Go for it, and send us the pictures. It's always funny until somebody gets seriously injured, and then it's hilarious!!!

Correct me if I'm wrong but the last time I checked we were living in the USA. You can't wear this or that, someone might be offended. Some of the people in these clubs claim to be veterans who fought for the country's freedom yet one has to ''ask permission'' to wear a particular type of patch. Do these people set the standards on what the citizens of this country can and cannot do? This is ''our'' territory. WTF If this crap is true, then we are in a sad state of affairs in the USA. What happened to freedom?

Clubs have been around a long time so this isn't something new. It is a free country though so wear whatever you want as long as your man enough to deal with the attention it brings be it positive or negative. Just don't pretend you are some crusader for freedom with a post like that.

Why not do a little research and find out why this situation exists? It's not necessarily a bad thing.
