Well, maybe they made it safe for you, but it sure wasn’t safe for other people, such as the girl they dragged into the club one night and raped until she was nearly dead. They also had regular vicious fights with another outlaw biker club (I don’t recall the name) and occasionally would beat up some passing stranger for apparently no reason.
I lived around there for awhile, and the Hells Angels made it safe the way the Mafia made their neighborhoods safe: if you played their game, didn’t get in the way of their drug trade (which was how the Hells Angels stayed in business) and didn’t see anything, they’d let you walk through their neighborhood. Maybe. Unless they were high and you were young and pretty.
Sorry, but an outlaw biker club is just that, regardless of their color.
sorry...I don't the racial relativism thing...I'm very post all that
I actually though think white one percenter MC clubs are exponentially more dangerous to those who come in their crosshairs than a black MC gang..what few there are
I doubt this Hudson Pkwy incident was an MC club but just brother thugs on two wheels
if it makes you feel better I have been corrected about recent HA bad deeds in that east Village neighborhood and admitted it...something I don't hesitate to do when wrong...which distinguishes me from many here
