Imagine how sensitive you need to be to let a show ruin something for you. Especially if that something is motorcycle riding. couldn’t be me. I seen the show twice and I still love to ride 🤷🏻♂️
People that feel the need to dress up in their "full patch" gear are sensitive and insecure to begin with. Nothing says independence like conforming to group rules because "muh biker club". I'm surprised every motorcycle club around the world doesn't have a prerequisite of under 50 IQ.
@@DryeLint I was at a city sponsored spring coming out rally last March and saw a SOL cut walking around. Looked kinda funny as the guy was like 30-35 yesars old. Got a picture last year at the Euro Harley Rally of several guys sitting around a table drinking a beer each with a lone rider rocker on their cut. Guess that's the club they belong to.
Lol yeah, any and all MC members I've run into at rallies looooove talking shop. Even in interviews you can tell that a fair number of the main cast had little to no knowledge of their rides. Sad really.
What do you mean gang for 1 be careful what you say cause some bikers and CLUBS will kick your ass for calling it a gang also your talking shit about m.c. royalty thats a ass kicking right their
@@monkmoto1887 I’ve noticed a lot of low iq people call crime drama garbage because they just wanna see an explosion or shootout within the first 20 mins they can’t comprehend character development or psychology
I understand the problem but it is a fictional TV show. Are you going to beat up 6 year olds for wearing a Mickey Mouse shirt because they don't belong to the club?
soa is obviously one of the best shows of all ..it tells many stories ..just small minded people will think in one direction only ..and saying big words don't make you smart just scripted ...hats off to Kurt Sutter
Thank you for pointing out the obvious. Unfortunately some loser 1%er will eventually come across that poor kid and take his wearing the SOA vest as a challenge or an insult. More the pity why anyone would look at outlaw bikers with any level of respect. Pitiful if you ask me! Ride safe.
Sons Of Anarchy is just a fucking TV show and that`s how everybody should take it. I really don`t understand why peoples are getting so offended by some kids wearing SOA cuts. I am biker and i definitely won`t wear any fake cuts on any circumstances. But making threats to some kids because they do. Its just ridicule.
I mean, I'm a kid... 18, no patches, but I ride before watching the show, and I like it.... that doesn't mean i have to wear a fake vest whit fake patches... it's just dumb
they call that elitism. The douche bag in this video here is a good example of this. He wishes he could write as good as Kurt Sutter or act as the cast on SOA.He cant so he does some stupid RU-vid videos. but i am sure he has a bunch of fanboys and fangirls who will back his dumb ass no matter what he says or does
Wait I thought Sons was a real biker club...I been prospecting with some guys wearing SOA colors for a year..I even let them pull a train on my ole lady! What the hell man?
Rufus D the sons of silence is one of the biggest mc’s in the world and way before SOA there was the Sons of Silence and in Colorado they are called Son for short
Beating somebody up for wearing a vest from a TV show sounds ridiculous, but beating someone up for wearing a patch from a actual real club that they didn't deserve? that's different.
I don't think so. You can get killed wearing a patch that your not supposed to be wearing. That's a fact. Sons was a tv show and that is all they were. They were imitating the Hells Angels. All you people that think you know, probably know nothing at all. There ae things that you just should not talk about or it could be an end to you. That includes me. So shut the hell up.
It depents on your country.....for example i cant wear the soa jacket because is called "sons of anarchy" and some people will try to stab me only because it says "anarchy"....in other countrys you may get stabbed for acting like a gang member (for example acting like a crip ).
Damnit, now I can't wear my Patriots jersey because I never actually played for them. Glad I never got my ass kicked by actual NFL players. Dodged a bullet there.
.... are the patriots serial killers and criminals? Well... I guess there is Daniel Hernandez. Have at it, pats fans! Wear those SOA gang patches with pride. It’s big time adorbs
@Actlikukno916 Boyyy same here! I can't wait 😄 who's your fave Mayan from the Santo Padre crew? Mines EZ, I know it's a cliche fave cause he's the main character but he's just cool af to me. Another fave is Coco, I felt for him in season 3, I hope he bounces back in season 4.
Wearing an S.O.A. cut is kind of like wearing camouflage pants when you've never been in the military. It actually means nothing, but those that seek out ways to be offended will eventually find it.
That said, if it's not hunting season, and you are grocery shopping at 1600, why should it be frowned upon to wear camouflage? I feel the same applies to wearing an S.O.A. cut. It's not a real club. It represents no actual values aside from Television show fandom. But yet, people feel the need to be offended. If anything, it exemplifies what a douchebag that person is. And those that are real should just laugh at it for what it is. Using some cry-bully tactic about how offended you are that this person who doesn't have the scruples to be in a 'real' club is just sad. More to the point, if you are offended by someone wearing an S.O.A. cut, you are just as much of a pussy as any virtue signalling lib-tard. Shut the fuck up and ride.
the only time I ever get "offended" by some one wearing the uniform is if they are in full uniform wearing rank and patches they didn't earn aka Stolen Valor
Dear Shadetree, I understand what you're saying about being able to rely upon that guy, and make sure he is really one of the club, but I have also got a confession. I used to be the "enemy" period, being an ex car driver, but I want you to know, I have always *thought bike", so you wouldn't have to "beat the crap out of me" as you rightfully say, unless you were one of the Sons of Anarchy. Thank you.
not really its like a kid dressing like a gangster and wearing gang colors just cause he seen boys in the hood -_- wearing a vest like that could be rude to other 1% mc trust me a 1% mc would most likely try to mess with you if you wear any kind of vest even if it isnt a 1% club
Diego Munhoz yes. atleast here in Georgia the law states you can defend yourself from bodily injury or death so in other words.... if someone fights you... they pull a knife... scatter their brains on the street
Perhaps, but it still is a TV show and people sometimes like to wear something based off a form of entertainment they like to further support the show. Because it's a TV show of course there is merchandising involved with merchandise like a SOA vest. I saw one on hottopic once. If they know it's just a TV show and the someone is wearing some official merchandise based off of the TV show then it shouldn't be rude or disrespectful. Unless the guy got a vest and put on patches posing as a member of an actual MC club, there is no reason for that nonsense at all. If that's how they are gonna feel about it then maybe they should get on the company for producing the actual merchandise in the first place, rather than beating up a kid for wearing something based off a show he loved.
Maybe he was a real diehard fan of the show and meant the fictional world. I mean there sure is a lot of killing in SOA and many died for those patches.
Yeah he says that as though they died honorably in a war. Give me a freaking break! 1%rs die while fighting over territory that they hold dear in order to continue selling and distributing drugs and to continue committing other crimes. Bottom line. There's no honor in that! Why don't punks like the guy in the video threatening the kid ever walk up to me acting tough? Because I would see to it he regretted his words in short order. Ride safe everyone.
there was this guy in his early 20's in Chicago who purchased the S.O.A. jacket, patches & a few other items to support the show, because he loved the show. Just like buying any other movie merchandising. - Well one day it seems he was walking around with a few friends in the city and had the S.O.A. jacket on and he got stopped by some biker gang. They broke the poor young guys jaw, arm & a few ribs and both his eyes was bruised shut for weeks and they broke his phone while also beating the crap out of his friends too. And then they say there is no biker gangs and they are clubs.... Like seriously, they claim not to be a gang, but yet act like gangs & beat the living crap out of people because they purchased some Movie Merchandising ..... like really wtf is going on in this world?
You must be a biker gangster, .... lol also , whaaat?...your territory, I didn't know you owned the roads.? LOL your territory......lol omg im on the floor laughing my ass off. I dont know why gangs think they own anything. the streets and land are the property of the state, not the gangster. when you leave this planet, the land will still be here and STILL be owned by the state. So telling people "Your Territory" is just hilarious.
Didn't you know you can buy a piece of sh!t bike and declare yourself entitled to all the land you want. You get to wear a sweet vest like Peter Pan and add "Flair" to it, feel fabulous about yourself and brag to all your boyfriends about your accomplishments. You get to hang out with your group of men riding your bikes on the country side with the wind in your face and your hair blowing freely. Ah yes, the true life of a hard ass. I pitty the fool that calls my gang queer
outlaws, vagos, pagans, galloping goose(especially), no doubt in my mind that any four of those clubs would do something like this especially galloping goose who dont let any riders wear anykind of patch if your near their clubhouse. If you hang-around 1%er's at all you should know that there are badass guys who will treat you with the utmost respect and will actually have your back if/when shit hits the fan. Than there are the homicidal maniacs that'll kill a pair of 6 year olds for a top and bottom rocker. As with any social organization you cant just assume one type of person will join that club. 1%er's are a myriad of different personalities, not just 1 type.
I think the "custom chopper" shows on the Discovery Channel did more damage than Sons of ANarchy. It seemed like every fucking yuppie had a fat rear tired, raked out piece of shit in their garage. Only to be taken out on "bike night" at the local chicken wing place.
There's not a motorcycle rider in the developed world who didn't choose to ride at least in part because they thought it was cool. I'm certainly no fan of Sons of Anarchy but there's only one guy in that video who needs a boot lodged in his skull, and it ain't the guy in the vest. Threatening some kid minding his own business is not okay. And I find it wise to always question the motives of someone who takes the time to get a camera ready before going on a tirade.
shadetree surgeon I'm only 17, and got my first bike at 13. 1985 rebel 250 I built up, loved it. loved everything about it. there's nothing quite like the feeling of just you and the road. that rush of no cage around you and the peacefulness yet thrill of the wind. sorry to be poetic, trying to describe the feeling.. but 8 months ago I got hit by a truck, and I'm still not walking.. I truly do want to ride again, but I'm not sure if I'll be able to..mentally. you know? sorry for venting to you, but obviously you're a rider so you understand
Change Needed good luck man. If you ever want to ride again start with riding as a passenger and work your way up from a small engine to larger till you feel comfortable. I believe you can back at it! :)
Anyone else find it ironic that wearing or owning anything from a tv show isn't a problem but as soon as its sons of anarchy the bikers become social justice warriors saying they're offended by someone wearing a cut from a fake biker gang? Also saying you don't like Jax because he is a killer isn't a good argument because we seem to rally around characters like Rambo and John McClane when they have at least 4 movies of the same things
Exactly. If it's a cop, or the good guy we are fine with rooting with them, but if it's an 'outlaw' we can't. Like "oh no I can't feel empathy for this guy, he's not a cop! he's a biker!". Pretty stupid lol.
@Venturi Atlantique no not true that guy was a pos. Im in a MC and that doesn't bother us at all not even the red and whites. Obviously that cut didnt have a bottom rocker hence not making it a 3 piece patch but even if it was its obviously a novelty item :-)
I've never been less afraid of anyone than someone behind their own camera "I should take that right now" putting his phone in the dudes face like Karen asking for a manager at the McDonald's lmao
N. I. what bothers me is when people wear the patch of the show....a tv shirt is well damn enough to show your support or fandom to the tv show. Wearing the patch has a way deeper meaning than that. It's means you belong to that group which it isn't even (a real MC). It's utter disrespect to the ones who spent their lives fighting to earn their patch. it would be like wearing a medal of honor even though you never served. Same thing it's disrespectful and straight up offensive. Where the shirt not the patch. Make your whole patch if you really want to rock a patch
N. I. It's not the same to me but it is to some people. I wasn't making a comparison. I was trying to show a same perspective over an other subject. And by the way I never mentioned the purple heart...you did. You might also want to know that a motorcycle club does not necessarily involve crime and drums. I'm not the one calling people names. That's my opinion just deal with it
Benjamin Belzile I see your point... as stupid as I think MCs in general are... Wearing a patch you didn't earn is like wearing camo's... the camo by itself is fine the disrespect comes from putting a name tape (army marines airforce) and patches on it. You didn't earn that name tape/patches so don't wear them
My grandpa raced Harleys in daytona in the late 40’s early 50’s and continued to ride into his 70’s. My dad and both his sisters rode their entire lives. It’s in my blood.
Sons of Anarchy was honestly one of my favorite shows, so I guess I forgive it of many of it's cliches and short comings. It drove sales of motorcycles, specifically cruisers, for some of my local dealerships which I see as a great thing. I don't really get how it ruined motorcycles though. Yeah, those naive foolish fans are going to rock the vests and throw a leg over a bike, but I'd never imagine they're being intentionally disrespectful, just excited as any of us who get the motorcycle bug.
+Killswitch Queen oh I don't think it ruined motorcycles at all, quite the opposite. It right a lot of people into riding and I think that's a great thing... the ruining motorcycles was just poor attempt at click bait lol
Killswitch Queen it ruined motorcycles for people that want to be cool and concerned "badass" for riding one. And when things get popular it's not "badass" anymore. I don't ride to be"badass". I don't have a beard or wear gay hats. I don't wear 6 peices of leather or have a bandanna in my back pocket. I ride because it's fun. This show was a fantasy for people who live normal lives. Just like any other tv show.
LOL Riding is both badass AND fun. If someone is ONLY trying to be "bad ass" they sure won't be riding for very long, seeing as they aren't having any fun...
If they watched the show, then they should know NOT to wear any kind of cut sporting a three piece back patch, real or fake, and definitely not real unless they are part of that club and have earned them, or that is a lesson that's going to be learned in hell.
Skepperly Fuck man, me too. I remember being 4 or 5 years old and thinking that Fat Boy was bad ass fuck. It was my dream bike for years. I'd still love to have an old Evo Fat Boy in the garage when the money is there to do it.
I'm Watching this video three years after it was posted, and I have to say that here in Brazil (yeah, I'm brazilian) we have the same issue. People buying Sons of Anarchy vests, Mayans vests, even Mongrels (Days Gone) vests. Some people don't like that, because they know all the trouble and all the work you have to go through to earn your patches. To those people, it doesn't seem fair that some dude just buy his collors, while they have to go through all the steps in a real MC to get their own. And that makes them think they're better than the kid who just bought his brand new SoA vest on e-bay and is trying to have a good time ona bike. I was one of those people once. Now that I'm older, I understand it. People have a lot of problems in their lives: at home, at school, at college, at work, in their relationships, with their neighbours... They're just trying to relax by doing something they like. But unfortunetly, we live in the age of nagging, and nowadays, everything is offensive, and everyone is too sensitive and have their feelings hurt all the time. Well, guess what: REAL BIKERS DON'T GIVE A SH*T. We allways had freedom as the ultimate objective in our lives. But who the f*ck we think we are to not let other people be free as well? Shouldn't we mind our own business?
Agreed , this is stupid. To complain about a tv show and bitch on how its disrespectful. Is like a Military vet complaining to a Battlefield gamer to take off his shirt because he's never been enlisted.
@@773superprguy Wear a military dress uniform with a few medals when you've never been in the service, then hang around some real vets and see what happens.
Yeah T2 got me into bikes too. When I was a kid I wanted Johns dirt bike cuz I thought they were so col. the older I got the more I realized that little Honda wasn’t shit, it was all bout Harley Davidsons. Unfortunately I can’t afford one but I got me a poor mans harley (Honda Shadow) to get me in the wind until I can afford me a soft tail or a fat boy.
I saw Terminator 2 as a 12yr old kid, and thought Arnold Schwarzenegger on a black Fatboy™ Was The coolest Fucking thing in the world, and I've wanted one for the next quarter of a century after, but never did. Sons of Anarchy finally got me into a dealership. it's enriched my life, in ways I couldn't have imagined.
Ssssss yeah when he flys of the edge chasing the tow truck . I remember that when I was 5 years old . I tried that on my z50 over a channel bank hundreds of times .
T2 is what got me into Harley's. I even have a Fatboy softail motorcycle now, as well as a Road King for longer distances. That's where the bug bit me, and we've been buddies ever since.
Lee Harris I own that bike. Not the actual one in the movie, but a first year FatBoy. I love that bike! It's the second one I've owned, and it's very well respected, even though it's a 90'. There were only 1,400 "Grey Ghosts" made and I've read that there are only around 700 original 90's left. I want a newer one, but it's hard to give up that look, of the old school Fatboy.
For people who say real bikers think SOA is shit.... I've been on Harley's my whole life and at age 50 I don't see that changing any time soon. But any way I love the show. I grew up hanging out with a club called the Saints here in the Midwest. Not to mention there are 4 very real biker in SOA. The guy who plays "Happy" I can't think of his name but he's a real life patch holder of the most well known club in world, the Hells Angels. As is Rusty Coones And Chuck Zito. Even the long time Club Prez of the Hells Angels , Sonny Barger was in the show.
good for you, that doesn't change my opinion at all. I hang with a very real club. A club that is Bigger than the Hells Angels. I bet you didn't even know there was one. Compared to them the HA's are nothing. SOA is a tv show. Get real or shut up. You know nothing.
SOA had four full-patch members of the the Hell’s Angels, as well as their founder Sonny Barger on the show. If there was anything inaccurate about their depiction of motorcycle clubs, don’t you think the writers would have been mad aware?
There were inaccuracies about biker culture. But at the end of the day it's a TV show that's what the actors that were hells angels and sonny barger understood.
@@donsmeltzer4083 definitely a significant member and one of the founders of the Oakland California chapter. But I took your statement as a founder of the MC. My bad.
The clubs have more rules than the military and I was barely able to follow those. Only thing the TV show showed me was that your more likely to get killed by your own club
I actually did a stint as an extra on a couple of episodes of the show. Never seen an episode. My MC helped with the show to make sure the portions of the show dealing with the inner workings of the club were as realistic as possible. What got me interested in motorcycles was when I saw Peter Fonda and Jack Nicholson in Easy Rider as a kid.
All I hear is someone rambling. So what if someone watches the show and then wants to ride. Yeah Jax killed alot of people but so did the Terminator and Tony Montana.
I think it’s been 8 years since I finished SOA and I was literally obsessed with Harley and motorcycles in general from samcro (SN, I’m girl and no I’m not in my 30s , I’m 18 🤷🏽♀️)
you know, I think all that club drama is kind of bullshit anyway. I've been riding for 30 years. it doesn't make me a better biker, it makes me more experienced, but some people don't even learn with experience. I don't ride a Harley. I don't have anything against anybody who rides a Harley. what I do have a problem with our people who think that they're better because they ride Harleys. I ride a badass Honda VTX 1800. that's a 110 cubic inch stroker monster! and it's a fun ride, but anybody with any considerable riding experience can ride it safely with a little practice. it would be really nice if riding a motorcycle didn't make you a badass, but a person who likes to ride motorcycles. being in a club has its benefits. but, in my experience, the purpose of a lot of those clubs is to promote fear and intimidation. they say that they are creating an environment of respect, but real respect doesn't come from fear and intimidation. it comes from the good things that people do, and not being a douchebag. what Sons of Anarchy did was promote the outlaw lifestyle. so now all these kids come out here, get there first motorcycle, and think that they have to prove what a badass they are. So they do stupid shit. if there's anything that Sons of Anarchy did, it was to promote the stupidity that people already think the clubs do. and suddenly, everybody wants a three-piece patch on their back. why can't we all just ride? if I see a biker on the road somewhere, and they need help, I don't care if they've got a patch or not, I'm going to help them. That's the biker Brotherhood. but we need to come to the understanding that riding a bike does not make you a bad ass. and just because it's loud, or painted black, does not make you a badass. and neither does watching a show.
SOA was just a tv show ,the problem is the real clubs that live that life and do what those soa members do in the show,there is no respect when gangs make the rules and there is no safety in all the drama they keep max out ,i also dont believe in such a thing as a real biker for a motorcile pilot its just that,real enough to bleed and die all that mc fakery its just gangland .a man is just a man what ever he drives,a pony,a bike or a car or even a shoping cart
Hellyeah Evel Knievel was the man the streets used to clear it out everytime Evel Knievel was ready 2 make a jump, one thing a lot of people don't know Evel Knievel used to hate Outlaw gangs he tussled with a few of them👊👊
I worked at a Harley-Davidson dealership. We sponsored a hole-in-one even at the local country club charity golfing event. There were three of us who showed up to pick up the bike and the Angels (young ladies) we left to run the contest. Lucky was in his riding attire and Big Dan, one of our porters, who looked like part mountain man, part road warrior and part pirate. I looked all Harley Corporate in my khaki pants and dealership logo shirt. There was a well dressed lady at a table with her husband. She saw me and my friends. She motioned for me and she whispered "I watch Sons of Anarchy. They ride motorcycles and they kill people!" The husband hid his face in his hand and I turned to her and said, "I know but at Harley-Davidson we frown on that type of behavior". Her husband just busted out laughing.
i have a hard time believing that this is what being an outlaw biker is about these days. harassing some kid with a hyundai, wearing tv show fake prop? its pretty pathetic.
After going through the comments. Ive notice no one knows that SOA is suppose to me a modern and modified version of Hamlet . So if you know the play Hamlet, then you’ll make the connections
so who was the snitch that tried to hang himself , and who were the police trying to stop them from running drugs and guns , and who the hell had a cell phone then .. hahaha
I can honestly say I haven’t watched a single episode of SOA. It seems to me like a soap opera but with motorcycles. And after that realization, I found that actually riding was a better use of my time.
There is an episode of ‘ Highway Patrol ‘ tv show that has Clint Eastwood riding an old Harley and he is in a club of everyday sport riders that get harassed and threatened by a store owner that thinks that ‘ all people on motorcycles are evil criminals ‘. That was in the 50s, after The Wild One . ( I guess we’ll always have it )
I agree with this but funnily enough i wear a SOA cut but wearing my sports team top could get me into trouble...all i am going to say by way of explanation is...i am from Glasgow, Scotland and my team is Glasgow Celtic...ive never and will never wear the shirt.
@@TheBobbymcd I honestly don’t know what is worse .... the fact you support Celtic or that you own a SOA cut. I’m torn, this is going to take a lot of mental gymnastics
We all know all motorcycle club members are people who help old ladies cross the road, rescue fluffy kittens from trees, adopt orphan soft cuddly puppies and listen to classical music before bed after a cup of warm milk.
All is true except the classical music part, and you forgot the millions of dollar they give to charities. Wonder how much money street gang donate to charity?
@@jerlewis4291 Working for the HA for about a Year in one of their Bike Garages/Shops I have to say that everyone I met has been awesome! Super Friendly, polite and helpful - people I'd like to be around more. Got to visit 'em one day again~
actually they do a lot of charity work. We have rides for people all the time. Raise thousands of dollars for people who are needy. No classical Music and warm Milk though do like hot chocolate on a cold night.
Anyone else get inspired by the intro to "La Bamba" when Bob is cruising down the highway on a indian motorcycle while he revs his engine to the song "who do you love" by Bo didley? That scene just hit me like a ton of bricks
Personally I think it's a great show and I'm looking forward to Myans MC. As for the movies, Wild One was pretty good. Easy Rider was one of the most boring movies I've seen in my life.
I can say that this is the only subject where I disagree with the surgeon here.......the guys that are in clubs are the ones that NEED to be educated that just because they don't have the balls to ride alone and be there own man doesn't mean that everyone else who wears an s.o.a vest is insulting them. I ride with good people and we don't put a "name" to anything and most certainly would not dwell on some fan wearing an s.o.a vest. For crying out loud, if ya ride just ride and shut up. We got enough "preachers" in the world.
Agreed. If you're hassling or assaulting people because of the clothes, colors, or style that they wear. You're nothing but a thug, you may call it a motorcycle club, but you're just a gang of thugs. This kid in this video wearing that Sons vest, that guy approaching him is a piece of shit.
Tony dud this ain’t no spelling B contest. Who give a shit if I don’t put punctuation on shit. That ain’t the point if it bothers you so much the don’t read my shit. Oh yeah and I say what the fuck I want and if I miss spell it lol who gives a shit.
Been riding motorcycles for over 50 years. Currently riding a Flyrite Old School Bobber with Springer front end, and factory rebuilt Harley 1200 V-Twin Evo. Never...EVER...interested about riding in an Outlaw MC. Plenty of invitations, always passed. Don't care for violence & think MC's are ridiculous. Think about it..... Every Outlaw MC wears the same Uniform/Cut....black leather. They ALL have the same Rockers....just different names on em. They ALL wear the same patches....again, just different words on a few. They ALL have the same motto.... ____ Forever-Forever _____ just fill in the blanks with the name of the MC. They ALL put their "Brothers" above all else...including their actual family. Personally, I tend to believe ALL Outlaw MC's are a bunch of Man/Child's with latent homosexual tendencies who love nothing more than spending time with their "Bro's"..... hugging & kissing each other with every greeting & good bye. Just a cunt hair away from being full blown slack jawed faggots.
How far must a club member have a stick shoved up his ass to get worked up over a T.V. show themed vest? That would be like Buzz Aldrin getting pissed at a guy for wearing a Star Trek uniform. I can just about promise you, he'd either take it as a compliment of sorts or chuckle to himself and go about his day. He once gave my friend the stink eye for wearing an O.D.B. "Ain't doing shit for the community" shirt, but that's another story. Anyway, my point is there is a lot to be said for leaving people you think are jackasses alone.
My man is a hells angel n we've been out n seen guys wearing the SOA vest n my man said NOTHING he couldn't care less it's just a vest he said it's not hurting anyone this guy making this video is an idiot
Wait, in your previous post you said "I dated a hells angel n have been to many hells angels clubhouses..." *NOW* you say "My man is a hells angel..." So which is it? Or are you just playing?
Devil Dan, using the same kind of reasoning it could be said that if you don't live in Cheyenne, you don't have a clue about how fierce a jackalope is. Even if true, the assertion conveys nothing of consequence about jackalopes or their ferocity. So why bother at all? Wouldn't it make more sense to either chuckle to yourself and go about you day, or clue the rest of us in?
you need to go to Daytona Bike week and see the bikes there. They have them in all shapes and sizes. Me I ride an old Harley dresser. A hog Electra glide classic. Its a cruiser. Its my 4th Harley. I won't ride any other name. Been there done that.
I retired to the Philippines after my time in the army. And was in Angeles city Pampanga not long ago and saw a guy wearing the Sons of anarchy cut. I started laughing at him. He asked me what I was laughing at. I told him his fake cut. He tried to tell me it was a real club and he was a member. I laughed harder. Well he didn't like it much but didn't do anything about it. Crazy shit in this world.
I understand getting mad if they had the same patch as you and were not in the club...but just wearing a motorcycle vest is considered offensive? huh? Also does this apply to vintage jacking/clothing? I for instance have a few WW2 bomber jackets with patches on them...I never flew in ww2, but that should be pretty obvious since im 30 right? :P im not trying to represent myelf as a bomber pilot obviously, the jackets just look cool as hell, its a fashion statement...
I've been riding for 32 years. I became infatuated with bikes while watching CHiPs and classic biker movies as a youngster. I was taught how to ride by members of a motorcycle club, and was brought into adulthood by a club of bilkers who taught me the importance of loyalty, honesty and brotherhood. That being said, I must admit that watching SOA was a guilty pleasure of mine and several other members of my M/C. Yeah, there was a lot of B.S. and it's far from reality, but it was a masculine soap opera that hadn't been seen before -- and that shit is addictive! I remember being at a biker bar in the 80s on Wednesday nights watching Dynasty and rooting for Crystal or Alexis as they wrestled in the fountain! So, as long as you take it for what it is: "Entertainment", than I see no issues with it -- afterall, it is a re-write of Shakespeare's "The Tempest". Ride safe!
I mean, this technically is a drama. It's called the Hamlet of Harleys for a reason because the similarities between Shakespere's play and Kurt Sutter's Sons of Anarchy are actually uncanny and resemble one another so much.
SOA wasn't really about motorcycles. It was a crime drama. They rarely show the bikes but for brief flashes. Nobody sitting around talking about bikes. When my buddies and I are sitting around shooting the shit, our bikes are a major topic of conversation. Hell, my life revolves around my bike in many ways.
LMAO we got to watch that fine Shore exhibition during Army basic training-only because it was the 4th of July and they didn't have any training that day. We still identified with it.
yep......wife and I were 55 when we got our MC licenses we are now 62. I love my harley and it is so carefree. Loved the show and also loved Sopranos!.
So you're happy to decry people wearing a FICTITIOUS cut, because it might hurt a big tough guy's fee fees, but you're okay with people beating people up because of it. Just how insecure are you?
It’s nice to know I’m not crazy for my reaction to SOA. I’d feel like myself joining that club, I’d sit down with them as they’d go “okay we’ve got this person to kill, this gun deal to do, btbubs, one of You has to go to jail for life...” Me: “ dude, I just wanted to hang out and talk about motorcycles, crazy and funny stories about what happened that one time, and ride motorcycles... I can’t ride motorcycles if I’m IN JAIL! Or dead, or being shot at!”
yeah i agree with you, the only reason i think it would be fun to be in a gang is to ride ( maybe a little faster than the speed limit ) and talk and have fun inside the law. Hell's Angels is a patriotic gang and i would join if they weren't so violent and involved in drugs and stuff.
As a youngster during the early 80's 'CHiPs' inspired my love of motorcycling, cheesiness aside. Also seeing Steve McQueen in 'The Great Escape' one of my Dad's favorite movies.
Been on 2 wheels for 40 yrs, and deep in the culture for almost as long..but always indy........Anyway, you spoke a lot of truth. I also think it depends on what state/where you are wearing the SOA cut. Here in Tucson there are a number of well known 3 patch clubs. An SOA cut will be basically ignored, the same as those who decide to where the "lone wolf" patch. As long as it's not trying to resemble a 3 patch cut (for those who don't know..top and bottom rocker w/center patch- and especially an MC patch) it's pretty much ignored in these parts. Always good vids.. Thanks.
So is it disrespectful for me to dress up like superman because I'm not the same superman from the movies? Seriously it's not disrespectful to wear a SOA vest.....at all. They aren't trying to imitate bikers who have gone through things to be able to wear their cut. They are very much aware that it's just a tv show. And no real biker is going to think that the person is trying to imitate them based off merchandise from a tv show. If I wear a Austin 3:16 shirt it doesn't mean I'm trying to be like stone cold steve austin. The whole idea of a vest based off a tv show being disrespectful makes about as much sense as someone being offended because their gender was assumed.
Hey, you can justify it any way you like bud. I was just showing one point of view, knock yourself out and wear whatever you want. I could give a fuck less lol
Dude, you won my permanent subscription for giving Farscape and Akira love! Right on! And you know what, SoA is part of what got me started. Mostly because my wife started watching it and enjoyed it, thereby encouraging me to FINALLY start looking into it after my dad died. It's all been downhill since then. \m/
