Title: Avoid western Washington right now... Post by WD on 06/27/05 at 22:51:05 The feds raided the state headquarters of the Banditos a couple weeks ago. The Hells Angels advance scouts were in the shop today. Stay home. I've got a sneaking suspicion we're fixin'to see a turf war before long. Nothing on this side of the state is worth risking riding here if you don't live here. If you want to see the mountains and the whales, I can't stop you. BUT, fly in and rent a car. I'll let you know when the Seattle area is safe to ride in for a visit. -WD |

Title: Re: Avoid western Washington right now... Post by sluggo on 06/28/05 at 14:10:47 which brings us back to perry's dissucssion of "colors". if you dress, act, talk like a "biker" with some colors you threw together and ride on down to the local chapters turf, then it's not a great time, if ever to be doing that. i think people are smart enough to know the "bad places", and the bad guys. well, don't do the above mentiond things and there won't be a problem. i wear well worn leathers, but not a single marking or pin. or do i stop in "biker" hangouts. i do however get pulled over a lot just to get the look over, they love checking the lights. find a problem with one, then they can go fishing, that's my biggest problem. i got papers on the "piece", and always fess up when asked. i also am as a known good guy to local law, that is up a point, that point being the other "piece" that the dr says is ok but the judge says otherwise. so i don't carry that one often. |

aw shucks, come on down it's still lots of fun around here. imho, the "outlaw" bikers have benifited by the explosion of the sport. they now blend in much better, easier to conduct the criminal activities that way. i'm sorry the sky is certainly not falling. there is however a vogon construction ship poised to begin it's actions. i got my towel handy. |

Title: Re: Avoid western Washington right now... Post by GITARZAN on 06/28/05 at 17:13:24 Do the outlaw clubs really bother with the riding populace? I'd figure they'd be more concerned about the drug marketing scene. "Hey you! Are you that guy that wrote that crappy poem about V-Twins on suzukisavagedotcom?" Gangs fight over boundaries that most of us don't even recognize. |

Title: Re: Avoid western Washington right now... Post by WD on 06/28/05 at 22:41:46 Scoff if you want... Pierce County, where I live, usually has the nation's fourth highest rate of meth production. The labs are up for grabs with the Banditos gone to ground. Awful lot of money to be made...if the Tongs don't grab it up first. Well, enough on this topic. At least it will make for an interesting summer for a change. :-/ -WD |

don't forget the mexican mafia, they be working that side of the street hard. that and the county's most corrupt sherriff ever just died. hence my vogon reference, bad guys do bad things, just about everywhere. it's just when we look a little harder that we actually see it in action. something about rose colored glasses and all that. |

Just be glad I didn't quote Paula Nancy Millstone Jennings. The feeling would be rather unpleasantly like being drunk. "What's so bad about being drunk?" Ask a glass of water. |

Title: Re: Avoid western Washington right now... Post by PerrydaSavage on 06/29/05 at 03:23:36 Well, there's been a bevy of big drug busts here in Nfld. lately ... but it's unlikely that outlaw biker gangs are involved ... just some out-of-work fishermen tryin' to get rich quick ::) |

Title: Re: Avoid western Washington right now... Post by Savage_Rob on 06/29/05 at 11:03:41 Based on the phonetics, I imagine that to have a sort of Scandinavian lilt to it; maybe Norwegian? |

Title: Re: Avoid western Washington right now... Post by PerrydaSavage on 07/01/05 at 02:59:43 8)Nawww, not Norwegian Rob ... 99% of Nflders are of English/Irish/Scottish descent ... there are several different accents here, depending on which part of the province you're from ... most of which sound reminiscent of the original "old country" dialects ... though now-a-days, most of the young people in Nfld. sound like anyone else in Canada ... eh?! ;) |

Title: Re: Avoid western Washington right now... Post by mornhm on 07/01/05 at 05:13:22 Perry... I'm impressed. Yes indeed that would be said with a Scotch/Irish lilt. That's why I think the first word would be spelled with a w. ::) |

Title: Re: Avoid western Washington right now... Post by Savage_Rob on 07/01/05 at 05:35:37 Yeah, I guess I could see a stereotypical Irish accent spelled that way too. |
