Midwest biker baron Harry (Taco) Bowman died behind bars of cancer over the weekend at 69. The legendary Outlaws Motorcycle Club President ran his biker empire from Detroit and brought the Outlaws to prominence nationwide, presenting a formidable challenger to Hells Angels founder Ralph (Sonny) Barger as America’s most powerful biker boss at the apex of his reign in the 1990s.

Metaphorically
Prayers for his soul.
May he burn in hell for an eternity
Hiding from the Waco biker threads but posting on the Detroit biker threads. You’re schizophrenic.
Well said FMDJ
I guess the clubhouse over off Spence lane and Lebanon road will Ben holding a vigil
Not that I’ll be there
I do have an aging Outlaw MC in my employ
One of my best honestly and he’s about Bowman’s age
Lol
He was indicted in Tampa, Florida in August 1997 for the three murders and bombings. The sweeping indictment, under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) conspiracy law, alleged his involvement in violent racketeering acts to also include drug trafficking, extortion, firearms violations.
Sounds like another wasted life. Did he ever repent that anyone knows of.
What the heck? Do you admire that sicko? He was a murderer, a bomber and a dope peddler. Putting his gluteus maximus on a bike seat doesn’t make him someone to get all misty eyed about.
Ralph (Sonny) Barger.............I thought he was dead already!..................
Any jailhouse interviews where he turned away from the evil? Or followed Jesus and warned kids not to do like he did? Or was a hard case to the end? Anyone know?
Barger had some kind of throat cancer, but I thought he survived it.
Irrelevant reply which is out of context to my comment to another poster.
I heard he was sick, and thought he died years ago.
The Outlaws still cause trouble here in Florida.
Last couple of years they have demanded that other biker orgs wear their colors inside out at the biker rallies and even tried to ‘enforce’ their stupid edict at the Panama City Beach Spring rally.
They soon found out that they were kinda outnumbered................
The Outlaws down in Tampa town, yes, a mighty fine place to be
They got green grass and they got high tides and it sure looks good to me
Wondering if this will have an impact on their community outreach efforts at the local children’s hospitals or holiday gift giving programs./s
I see what you did there...........Wrong Outlaws!...................
Heh heh ;)
Was his girlfriend/ wife known as Taco Belle?
To some, having your hero on the FBI top ten is an honor.
