I rode motorcycles for many years, and still do, occasionally. In that time, I've known, and
called 'friend' several so-called 'outlaw' bikies. Yes, genuine, patch-holding colours-wearing
'bikies'. I even went to school with a couple.
And guess what?
Most (no, not all) of them were/are not criminals or law-breakers at all, and deplore
the criminal element in their gangs/clubs giving them a bad name.
I believe that you believe that, however, I don't believe that.
Nor was I a criminal merely because I rode a motorcycle, wore leather and denim
and occasionally associated/rode with some of these guys.
I've never said that all people who ride motorcycles are criminals. Bikies are criminals, bikers are not.
But hey, I know you're going to stereotype away.....
Bikies are self-proclaimed outlaws who admit to being involved in organised crime. I'm not stereotyping anyone: they readily admit to the fact.
