Talk about being a man of the people.
Tucker has his finger on the pulse of America and this makes it clear why.
(Excerpt) Read more at twitter.com ...
Bad headlines in broken English ruin the credibility of a post.
It’s copied directly from Twitter. I don’t believe in altering the headline of any story I post here.
“And nice tribute by Tucker.”
ROTFLMAO! The murdering drug dealers should get no tribute.
It’s just a bit odd since he was once known for wearing bow ties back in the day.
> So, Tucker values the amoral: “Stand Tall, Stay Loyal, Remain Free, and always value Honor.” <
This incident is making my head spin. I suppose there are decent Hell’s Angels folks. I dunno. But wherever the HA go, drugs and violence follow. Yet we are supposed to give them a complete pass because the words “loyal” and “honor” appeared in some HA letter.
Well, here’s the thing. The Nazi SS claimed to value honor, too. In fact, their motto was “My honor is called loyalty”.
And Mafia members often referred to themselves as “men of honor”.
I guess Tucker has become star-struck with the HA, much like some folks have become star-struck with the Mafia. It’s pathetic to the point of being disgusting.
Actually none of that means anything bad was none.
And all of that means good things were done.
“High respect, as that shown for special merit; recognition or esteem” is pure goodness.
I see Honor as respect for other people. That means you will not victimize anyone (commit crimes).
The entire phrase is amoral.
“High respect” is earned within a criminal syndicate by killing people.
For you to equate murder with “pure goodness,” is beyond me.
As the younger folks say these days:
BASED AF.
Not to mention, we Real American will need folks like these if/when things go sideways.
Nice networking move, Tucker.
The unfortunate thing is that one needs to preface “Honor” with the specific way they interpret it, because the major definitions are otherwise amoral, and equally encourage bad and good.
Perhaps it has to do with the individual, rather than the group?
I have known a few MC members, and they were quite respectful, friendly and approachable. They didn’t take any crap; but they also didn’t allow a whole lot of crap to go on around them. If one or two of them were at a local bar, that bar did not have any fights or stuff going on - it was quite clear that it wouldn’t be tolerated.
Now, the MC had ‘their’ bar; and unless you were a member, it was pretty clear that this was a private establishment. But, in my “limited” experience, most MC groups do not want chaos going around where they live. Many are ex-military, some are weekend bikers, and weekday bankers, lawyers and doctors. You truly never know, until you take the time to talk to one, and treat them with as you would be treated.
Don’t make nothing; there generally won’t be nothing. That’s been my experience. Go into that meeting with an attitude, expect unpleasantness.
South Dakota has had a reasonably decent biker rally every year, for decades. it gets MC clubs of every variety - and if there are problems, they don’t happen anywhere near the meet.
Actually most Hell's Angels Club members are decent folks who pay taxes like everyone else.
Yet we are supposed to give them a complete pass because the words “loyal” and “honor” appeared in some HA letter.
You are not supposed to do anything.
Worth pointing out that BLM has committed VASTLY more violence and crimes than the Hell's angels ever did even in their hey days.
And BLM has only been around for a very short time.
The Nazi SS claimed to value honor, too. In fact, their motto was “My honor is called loyalty”
The United States military, the Supreme Court and every major government organization in almost every country values honor and loyalty too.
That doesn't make them bad. It makes them good.
I guess Tucker has become star-struck with the HA,
Tucker Carlson doesn't have to get star struck about anybody.
He is the biggest star in media.
Not breaking nor is it news
I worked with a guy who was HA of mature age. As he got older he had mellowed. Good man. Saw things pretty much as I saw them.
I also met a couple of his HA friends who were pretty rough around the edges. I would not be comfortable hanging around them. They are, after all, an outlaw gang.
Nope.
The entire phrase is very moral.
Don't go changing the meanings of words agaib, whereby Dementia Joe claims inflation is zero, when its at 8.3% and at 40 year highs. and the “borders are secure” when they are at the most insecure in history.
For you to equate murder with “pure goodness,” is beyond me
Nobody said that, apart from you that is. Try again.
The dictionary agrees with me.
What’s your defense?
> Actually most Hell’s Angels Club members are decent folks who pay taxes like everyone else.<
True also if many folks who mistakenly support BLM.
> Worth pointing out that BLM has committed VASTLY more violence and crimes than the Hell’s angels ever did even in their hey days. <
Agreed. Nevertheless, Tucker has weakened his brand by appearing with the HA. It looks a bit hypocritical to be criticizing one group associated with violence (BLM) while hanging around with another group associated with violence (HA).
I know Tucker is deep down a good guy. You know that Tucker deep down is a good guy. It’s the folks in the middle who will be swayed by this. It’s not that big a deal. But it’s a net loss for our side, as I see it.
The fact that morons around here are saying “I’ve known a couple guys who wore leather jackets and rode motorcycles and they were nice to me!” indicates that real outlaw motorcycles gangs don’t commit violent felonies really shows how people will twist themselves into knots to justify anything. I thought only libs did that. Turns out cons do it as well.
I, and the dictionary, say Honor is amoral, by the most major definitions. It does not mean good or bad.
You believe Honor can’t be had among criminals for the most accomplished murderers within. I say you are out to lunch.
What are you Smoking, Joe?
