I concur. I'm 28 and it's amazing to me how many of my old classmates have failed at life.

If you're looking for studies that support my opinion, they do exist. DOJ and various State agencies have lots of data available. Some is public information and much of it is not. Some is available on the web and other information would require a FOIA request. I'm not going to waste my time and do your research for you only to post things that you will just say are government propaganda.

if you're really interested in seeking the truth here is a good website to start with: http://www.justice.gov/criminal/ocgs...otorcycle.html

Follow the money and drink the Kool Aid.

Truth is relative to those with theory vs experience.

I trust my own reality.

BTW- National Geographic is having a MC propaganda marathon right now.

I have over 20 years of direct law enforcement experience and training that I base my reality and opinions on. What is your experience that you speak of?

There are vastly more priests that are child molesters than there is in the public at large. The Catholic Church is a known safe haven for them. You picked the wrong analogy for trying to push your argument.
