India still embraces a caste system and Patel is a caste name or so I've been told by a Patel. Lookee here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patel" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;TVGuy wrote:koine2002 wrote:

I'm not quite sure where you pull this from, but it's complete and utter hogwash. Five minutes of research on the internet will prove the case.
All of the Patels in the world are about as related as all of the Smiths.
agreed. and not all members of the gun community are choir boys. and all Leo's are not choir boys.mojo84 wrote:Yeah, but 100% of the bikers shooting it out at Twin Peaks were bad guys and not choir boys.

and again, the large majority of riders are independents. not affiliated with any club.
Good decent family man would be at home or work taken care of their family not affiliate themselves with an OUTLAW club. I have delt with the Cossacks a few times as an LEO and they are into plenty of illegal activity. Dope, running guns, prostitution, and bike thefts. Funny I see people defending them because they get involved in toys for tots and other charitable events, they do this to try to convince the public they are good guys. All the while the rest of the club is living up to its 1% patch.gemini wrote:Lots of guessing what's going on, and who knows who. Just a couple of points to make
regarding this discussion:
not all bikers wearing a vest or jacket are members of a gang
not all bikers dress like pirates
not all bikers that join a club are 1%ers, and not all clubs that have colors are 1%er clubs
not all bikers that attend a "bike night" are there to fight or shoot anyone, it's a social gathering of common interests
not all 1% club bikers are out to hurt anyone
not all club bikers are jobless, homeless, drug addicts or single guys without families
for a bike club to issue orders to go after Leo's would be ........ insanity to the max
for a bike club to retaliate against another club, yea, probably happen later
MC does not stand for Motor Cycle. It stands for Motorcycle Club
99.9% of MC business is kept in house or between clubs, does not involve the "average" person
there are plenty of good MC's and Riding Clubs; CMA (Christian Motorcycle Assoc.), Blue Knights (Leo), Dragon Slayers (Firemen),
Defenders, Guardians, Iron Horse, multiple veteran MC's etc etc etc.
the majority of riders are independents, just normal guys that enjoy motorcycles
I'm not trying to defend anything that happened in Waco. Not trying to defend clubs.
My mission here is to remind folks that most of the riders you will encounter are people
just like you. They have families, jobs, go to school, church etc. The only difference is their
preferred mode of transportation. You'll see more riders during the spring and summer. Please,
please remember not to tailgate, look twice before entering traffic, look twice before making a
left hand turn, the texting can wait and double check your mirrors before changing lanes.
Lets all have a good week.
As well you should. Be careful out there!nightmare69 wrote:We did receive multiple APBs warning of the death threat to LEOs. We take this very seriously.
Good Lordy. You think my post was defending 1% MC's? No. The post mainly tried to get across that 99% of the riders you mightnightmare69 wrote:Good decent family man would be at home or work taken care of their family not affiliate themselves with an OUTLAW club.
