Why would anyone want to join a gang like that?

I have no idea!

And its not to say that all 3 patch wearing clubs are like that. many are what you and I would call normal. I have been approached by a few of them. But I simply don't have the time to devote to any level of a club. So I poliety decline.

I get a kick out of gangs.


I've sat and talked with a few hells affiliates, they talk to me because I ride an American bike. The funniest time some guys had made a club. They had patches and vests. And they pulled into the parking lot. The minute the two HA guys saw them, they dropped their gear to show their colors.


I thought it was odd that they weren't showing them all the time, so I asked what was up about that. They told me that the HA was run out of hfx, and they had to start an affiliate gang.
Pretty cool guys, they just gave off a bad vibe.

I would laugh if one of those "Bad boys" got the beat down from some kid. It is very possible.
Last time I heard of a 1%er giving a damn about this sort of thing was maybe 10 years ago, at the Toronto International Motorcycle Show. Some white patch got pissy about someone in line not giving him 'respect' so he started a fight and got his ass kicked, while his full patch 'brothers' watched. His 'brothers' said something about respect having to be earned.

Don't know if the same would have happened if it had been a full patch who picked that fight, but I strongly suspect that one wouldn't have.

That is my point. 1% in Canada are all about organized crime(they are the new mafia). They won't risk their drug trade because some South Park fan called them a fag.

They probably loved the episode too.

If you wanna read a good book, pick up "Under and Alone". It's about how an ATF agent infiltrates the Mongols. These are the guys Gas is talking about. Crazy stuff.

I think there was an episode of this Gangland about that.
