gang: an organized group of criminals.

You mean, like these desperadoes?

While one of the definitions of gang implies criminal activity, definition 2 is:

a group of persons having informal and usually close social relations [watching TV with the gang]

Hence, there can be non-criminal "biker gangs", in the sense of people who enjoy hanging out together.

Kinda funny that you bothered. TXG8R clearly saw that definition, he or she simply ignored it. I knew that; thus my comments about being ‘coy’ or ‘cute’, and not bothering to take the time to point it out. If someone is intent on being a jerk, no amount of explanation will help. Only those who are intent on seeking truth will see truth.

"And hey all you bikers who outnumber the gangsters apparently 99% to 1%, can’t you just cut the ties to the gangsters and ride free and legal? And if not, why not? "

You got the same response I got ... silence.

They whup a$$ on the keyboard and pay their extortion money dues to the gangs Confederations.

Wrong again. We had a two hour power outage.

Notice the SS tattoos and patches. The Cossacks were allied with Hitler in WWII.

"During “Operation Hog Trap,” officials arrested 258 people, and 14 of those were “violent fugitives,” according to a news release."

This is textbook OCD.

Every time you interrupt its train of thought, it has to go back and start over, posting the same crap a particular number of times.

And then it gets interrupted again and we all have to start over, with it.

Bike Fest, aka “Black Biker Week” did not fare nearly so well.

Main thing is still the new bridge improvement tween the split and Newport but it’s not too bad

Worst part is NCHP.....they swarm 40 tween state line and Asheville

And speed limit is 50-55 so u have to watch

But it’s vast improvement from before the tunnels when it was crazy switchbacks forever

When was the big rock slide.....96 maybe

Folks forget 40 was closed what two years then....maybe more

Is Cumberland Gap worth seeing...I like the historical significance but is it visible really

It’s off the usual beaten path

Then again, he HAS been bumping the thread, to the point where every FReeper has seen it. Gater seems to have as big a "thing" about motorcycle riders (and, fair disclosure, I used to be one in my younger days) as certain other freepers have about Mormons or Catholics.

You often are engaged in behavior you accuse others of.

No, that's what you're doing.

I perceive that you know what a dangerous word and concept sub-human is.

ISIS is full of subhuman filth. Do you dispute this?

They won't do that, because a vocal segment of this supposed 99% actually support the gangsters. No decent person would try to portray Bandidos and Hell's Angels as all-round decent guys who (purely by coincidence) have had a few bad apples among them.

The evidence shows that you do. You have made a couple of "I/m here to bury Caesar, not to praise Caesar" posts but the initial post by you I read was siding with those who threw the term around like a Democrat politician throws tax payer money.

At least be honest with yourself.
