From what I’ve read in several biker forum posts by people who were actually there, the ‘vulgar’ clubs were there to support the vet being buried.
The WBC went over the top [what a surprise] and the 1%ers didn’t back down.
One of the PGR chapter heads said that they had a goodly number of ‘outlaw bikers’ amongst their ranks who rode faithfully for fallen vets.
Maybe they got fed up with seeing signs saying the dead soldiers deserved to die and were going to hell.
It wouldn’t take seeing much of that to make me get “vulgar”.
Don’t be too surprised if Phelps thinks he’s found himself another group to harass into giving him more lawsuit fodder by provoking them to rash actions.
It’s what he does.
Under the bottom would be a better way to put it, really. I loathe these self righteous, non-useful (they never show up at any gay pride event) gratuitously irritating gnats on a mission from self, not from God. But if a Starbucks didn't want cussing on its property while the face-off was taking place, then myself I think it's a mite over the top to refuse to accommodate Starbucks' wish. The bikers ought to have simply said "excuse us sir" and moved to some other spot. Too often, the biker statement, 1%ers especially, seems to be that "meanness is God" and this is a tragic state of affairs all around.
