Armed Bikers Plan to Draw Cartoons of Mohammed Outside a Mosque in Arizona

An armed biker gang. Cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed. A mosque in Arizona. What could possibly go wrong?

Gang, or club?

So far every account that I see is calling them a gang, but what “gang” is this?

I click on the link but the pop ups are making it impossible to get to the story.

Do you know when and where this is taking place, specifically?
