>>> I would say the FR consensus view is the opposite. The bikers have a very strong following around these parts. <<<

It seems to me that the greater concern is the apparent abuse of the law employed against 177 people based on their choice of clothing.

Wearing gang patches in public is more than a simple clothing choice...if it were the Bandidos & Cossacks wouldn't have gotten into a shooting war over who had the right to wear the Texas patch on their back.

There is also the fact that not all the bikers present at Twin Peaks on May 17th were arrested, including members of a number of well known motorcycle clubs.

So your premise that there was an abuse of law based on choice of clothing is patently false, something which has been pointed out to you multiple times.
