vests!!
10/11/09 at 17:15:36
 
i finally had a day off 2day, and went to the gun show with a friend of mine. i am looking into getting my concealment, and i got this sweet leather vest that has carry pockets inside.

there's nothing on the vest, except for a small biohazard symbol that i put on the front chest over the heart.

the outlaws, pagaens, and i believe bandidos are big down here. i was wondering if anyone ever had any trouble from wearing anything that closely related mc clothing. i have some family affiliated but they are jail.

i originally bought a sport jacket so there'd be no confusion, but i couldn't help myself on this one lol i plan on leaving the back letter free. just wondering what u guys thought on the topic ! ! !

i also got a pair of leather gloves for 5 bucks! if they last a month i got my money's worth!   Cool

I can't speak for FL but the Hells Angles are big in AZ. The biggest chapter is right up the road in Cave Creek (Sonny Barger's home). I never seen a problem around here.
I believe that with that crowd you get trouble when you make trouble. Ain't the president of the Outlaws doing about twenty five years? That ought to make them keep a low profile.
The Mongols colors were RICOéd, and it is against the law anywhere in the US to wear them or display them. How bad do you got to F*** up to pull that off?

you could contact your states' "confedration of clubs" laison or public affairs officer..
generally the 1% crowd is back patch "colors" and rockers sensetive..
nothing that says M.C.  (motorcycle club) or state name..
i contacted colorados' before i designed for a pgr back patch, didnt get very far his attitude was"welcome to my world" i did what i wanted afterall this IS AMERICA!!!
never heard anything about front patches/pins etc.. enery state is different..they use the word respect alot tho they want it their way..
dont get in a confrotation worse case you take the vest off and ride away...GOOD LUCK

That movie was funny before I drove my own motorcycle, but soooo much funnier now.  We've watched it quite a few times.  Gotta work on that fist bump....

The main things to watch with vests is what back patch you wear and DON"T wear any rockers without getting permission from the dominant MC in your state. Back patches and rockers is what will get you into trouble. Oh, and the MC patch can cause problems too. Otherwise wear your vest and put what ever small patches on that you want (as long as they don't look to close to any MC patches).

i'm totally ignorant, but intrigued. what's all this about vest patches and what are "rockers" ?  

are there really MC clubs that would beat you for wearing the wrong patch?

Here's a link about motorcycle patches. It was posted a good while back and I bookmarked it.

The only club I ever got to see up close was the Warlocks up in Scranton PA and one look was all it took.

Check out the link Ed posted. And yes MC's will beat you for wearing the wrong patch. Bike wars/feuds have been started over rockers aka state patches.

Wow, good informative article.  So, if you just have a bare vest, you're probably safe?  I ask because I recently got a nice leather vest that sounds similar to Rocco's, and I'd really like to avoid getting beat down just for wearing a comfy vest. Tongue  I don't plan on putting any decorations on it for the forseeable future.

Hell, in Compton CA they used to shoot you for just wearing the wrong color! Bloods and crips.
Hard to believe that people are that crazy, sad!
