Wolf, who wrote his PhD thesis based on original research done during his membership with the Rebels MC in Canada , defined an outlaw motorcycle club as, "technically," The bust went down with search warrants and arrest warrants. The Mongols, a latino gang formed due to the Hell's Angels refusal to admit hispanics, was named after the Asian warriors, and has had chapters become subject to rule by the Mexican Mafia prison gang.
Reports say many Mongols were admitted from lesser Mexican Mafia controlled street gangs, even without motorcycles, to assist in the drug trade between Mexico, California, and Canada. Canada , especially, has in the past two decades experienced a significant upsurge in crime involving outlaw motorcycle gangs, most notably in what has been dubbed the Quebec Biker war , which has involved more than murders [ 33 ] plus a young bystander killed by an exploding car bomb , 84 bombings , and cases of arson.
Members and supporters of these clubs insist that illegal activities are isolated occurrences and that they, as a whole, are not criminal organizations. They often compare themselves to police departments, wherein the occasional "bad cop" does not make a police department a criminal organization. One biker website has a news section devoted to "cops gone bad" to support their point of view, [ 37 ] and the Hells Angels sponsors charitable events for Toys for Tots.
These confederations are composed of MCs who have chapters in the state, and the occasional interested third party organization. The confederation holds periodic meetings on neutral ground, wherein representatives from each club usually the presidents and vice-presidents, but not always meet in closed session to resolve disputes between clubs and discuss issues of common interest.
The largest one-percent club tends to dominate the confederation, using their numbers to impose their will on other clubs. Sometimes clubs are forced into, or willingly accept, "support" roles for a one-percent club.
Smaller clubs who resist a large one-percent club have been forcibly disbanded, e. This is considered an act of shame by some clubs, and a club thus forced may wear an upside-down AMA patch on their colors as a form of protest and to retain their dignity. Certain large one-percent MCs are rivals with each other and will fight over territory and other issues. Police reports indicate the Pagans were outraged that the event was held on what they considered their "home turf".
Club members tend to be older veterans, and given the cost of ownership of a Harley Dresser type motorcycle, increasingly well to do.
Smaller clubs are allowed to form with the permission of the dominant regional club. Smaller clubs will usually be required to wear a "support" patch on their vests that shows their support for the dominant regional.
Certain clubs are exempt from this requirement, such as the police clubs "Blue Knights" as well as the national "military only" clubs like the "US Military Vets MC". These are not considered "real" motorcycle clubs and can be easily differentiated from "real" clubs by the lack of "MC" Motorcycle Club or "MG" Motorcycle Gang on the back of their vests.
When a bar or other establishment posts a "No Colors" sign, they are specifically targeting people with the "MC" or "MG" letters on the vest.
The incidence of drug dealing and illegal activities in the vast majority of MC's mirrors the percentage of criminal behaviour in society as a whole. Most clubs are organized as a c charitable organization and provide money and support to a variety of charities. Typical events include "poker runs" and '' raffles where a portion of the proceeds are donated to the clubs designated cause.
Additionally the clubs provide support services and maintenance for members in the form of trailers, tools, etc. The clubs also stress safety and rider skills. Most will have a "road captain" that is responsible for safe riding. The members will generally have a pre-run safety check where required equipment, tires, etc are checked. This is both for member safety and prevent giving the police any justification for stopping the pack. Several of the articles mentioned that many motorcycle clubs were present at the funeral of Officer Ortiz.
I would like the media to be aware that the largest presence of motorcycle clubs was the Choir Boys Law Enforcement Motorcycle Club. As racism, sexism and xenophobia break through the polluted surface of our American landscape along with the attempted justification of discrimination espoused by the radical religious fundamentalist right, we continue to hear from our Republican friends that it is not their fault, but the fault of the media, the President and the Democrats.
What kind of an argument is this? The continued ridiculous attempt of congressional Republicans to shift the blame from them and their policies is past even being tired any more. How about Ted Cruz?
Instead of proceeding to my assignment, or even returning home, I drove to a major warehouse store. All around me sounded the din of Christmas music and the frenetic chatter of shoppers. I wandered over to the clothing area and grabbed a silk shirt.
I made my way towards the exit, still wheeling the cart, and exited the building. He explains how his brother picked him up from jail and he tried to sneak into the house without anyone noticing. My seventeen year old son stared at me in disbelief.
I sheepishly went up the stairs in a cloud of shame. He was the oldest and had taken on responsibility by default as the man of the house. I was an addict for roughly forty years.
