[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 2748667, member: 5412"] I put on a lot of satire early in the thread. In the early 70's I lived next door to the President of Satan's Angles. An all black motorcycle gang in the Kansas City area. Our front doors were 20' apart in a low rent apartment complex. He rode a pan head Harley, and I rode a 450 Honda. Why in the hell that guy took to liking me, I don't know. He was a heavyweight Army golden gloves champ for two years, but had been out for three or four years. He also rode bulls in all black rodeo's around the region. He was a huge man. He would invite me over to have beers with his buddies. Eddie Murphy in his early days would be on an 8 track with the N word in every sentence. They just laughed and thought it was the funniest thing they heard, but as a veteran of several classes in the Army that preached the Nword was not acceptable, I didn't know what to do, so I just grinned, and said oh hell ya that was funny. Sam and I would take rides to the Black Crow club in North KC. I'd be the only white guy in the place. He made me park my Honda across the street, not in the line-up of Harley's. Got a lot of stares, but never had an issue. I have some sympathy to this day with a black person being the only one in a room of a different race. I'll agree with some that as long as you didn't violate their rules, you were as safe as you could be. Cheat at the pool table, lie to one of them, your evening was not going to turn out well. Honesty/respect among the members is the rule they live on. All that being said, they survive because of dealing in drugs, guns, and other illicit activities. I've never seen a serious biker group put on a bake sale to raise money. The Texas group falls into that circle. [/QUOTE]
