No LEO would bother to come on this forum and think he'd get any kind of relevant information about anything of interest to a leo,.... other than many different opinions on important issues like.... AZZless chaps, fingerless gloves, and rants over hondas, bmw, and helmets .. oh almost forgot.. exhaust.
Someone was in the wrong place at the wrong time and paid for it with his life. It's like digging in the sand, you remove some and the hole fills in again. It's so pointless.
Back in the mid 60's when I was about ten years old, I ran into a couple of Hells Angels, one of which had run out of gas as they rode from Malibu up through the canyon into Newberry Park where I lived. I was on my Taco mini bike, or maybe it was my Honda 65, and stopped to see what was up, then went to my house and got them some gas. They looked pretty ruff and tuff, but could not have been nicer to a kid, and even reimbursed me a whole lot more than what that gas was worth when they certainly did not have too.
If those two are still alive, they would have to be getting close to seventy years old soon. I have no idea who they were, where they were from or going, but it would be interesting to know, and if they remembered that little kid they impressed that day, and I wish them well if they are still around.
texascowgrower,,,,,,,,,what is a LEO ??? and i like the big words..i do 4 to 5 crossword puzzles a day...but honestly,,,,you have to get a picture a little less like charlie manson....the goatee is cute,,,but can i comb your hair a little ??? this is not a 'dis',,,just an honest opinion...i am the most 'down to earth' person you will ever know...my late husband kinda looked like you as a matter of fact... and,,,,he liked it when i combed his locks...hopefully your wife or better half will indulge you in the serenity you will receive when she caters to you in the grooming department...do i sound silly here ????
As I posted in another thread, I first became interested in motorcycle clubs (specifically the Hells Angels) while in the third grade living in California in 1969. As I've grown older I suppose I've evolved from the childhood fascination into a deeper interest about these organizations involving motivation for joining, submission to authority, life at the clubhouse etc. Trust me, the stories we heard as 9yr old boys made ANY red blooded manchild want to sign on the bottom line! Life choices, marriage, and general authority "issues" have precluded me from actually attempting membership, but I figured this forum would be the best place to quench my thirst for knowledge. If I WERE a cop, I'm thinking that discussing these issues over a beer with a club member who'd "flipped" would be a MUCH better method of gleening usable information for a prosecution. RELAX...I'm harmeless...
dude, I totally understand your fascination with the clubs, especially the HA's, but it is totally unrealistic, not to mention histerical that you think your gonna find info on them in this forum. have you read some (most) of the thread titles here?
