"This handgun was registered to and belonged to a Thomas Wood," said Police Superintendent Michael Chitwood.

Wood was a leader in the Hells Angels motorcycle gang. He was shot and killed in January of 2005 in South Philadelphia. Police are trying to determine how Jenkins obtained Wood's gun.

Okay, so a leader in the Hells Angels has a clean enough record to buy and register a gun? Hmmm. That sounds a bit odd.

Maybe that is the liberal idea of gun control -- let criminals register and keep their guns. Maybe you have to be a thug before you are allowed to own a gun?

I think Thomas Wood may have been clean in say 1952 when he purchased the handgun, but in 1968 had better things to do like...riding? The gun has been registered for decades and lost for the same.

A prison record is not a prerequisite for membership. If he was smart enough to avoid arrest he could easily raise through the ranks.
