[i do know some things]

opinions

[itsabargain]

a lot of police departments use harleys for their officers. so i guess a lot of cops ride them?

[i do know some things]

maybe i should have rephrased this?...what are your opinions about bikers ,have you ever been bullied by them ?

[Eric Sam]

are you refering to the weekened warriors, or gangs like Hells Angels?

hells angels and such

I've never been bullied by them. They more often than not don't start trouble, but if there is "provocation", they are on a hair trigger. They don't go 1/2 way, they go to the extreme at that point.

[Stereotyped]

Why stereotype bikers, you are insinuating that all are bad, this is not the case, why not sterotype families that live in white houses for example are they all "pure", or people that drive mini vans are they all great family people, the sterotyping for bikers goes to extremes. This day and time many great citizens of this commmunity, Doctors, Lawyers, and business owners to name a few, ride Harleys for the sport, and many belong to biker group organizations. Bikers enjoy their freedom, that is where the sterotype should stop.

Before you call yourself a "whambulance" read his other post that clarified he was referring to "hells angels" and such. Outlaw motorcycle gangs are true bullies and bums and should not be confused with law abiding bikers.

I ran with them for years, and yes law abiding citizens do hang with the gangs and they do join up. Dont be fuuueelish.

Not all are bullies and bums, some make more money than you do.

Some "gangs" are not "outlaws" just wannabes.

Which gang did you run with? Amazing how your psychic powers have already determined my income level, LOL. Seems to be a pattern with some of you biker sensitive folks since most have made reference to income level. Apparently income equals status in your mind.

I am certain that the outlaw gangs make pretty good cash income from their meth sales.

The Chosen Few iI knew in the 1980's were all employeed selling drugs, and anything other not legal way to make a buck.I caould see a clean cut Doctor walking into a club to join up. HE'd better have an appitite for sex, drugs & rock & roll. WIthout it, he'd be no friend of theirs.

LOL I dont know anything about you, just saying that not all outlaws are bums,LOL Some own businesses some work for large companies in executive positions. I'm not biker sensitive, just know reality.

They do own properties as a club, and they do raise money having parties.

But I am not saying they are angels LOL

LOL sex drugs and rock and roll about sum it up LOL
But most of them had jobs, good jobs. Ya think harleys are cheap? And all that partying? Cheap?
We used to rent halls to have parties, and rent out whole camping areas. They would also rent beer trucks, and hang lights set up stages, have bands. Cant do all that without money or just with drug money. The clubs do have membership fees they pay.

I am trying really hard not to be totally negative here. But I will say this much, they are probably worse than you know....
