I think you are getting this confused with police brutality, unless an officer shot one of the unarmed gang members in the back. I actually didn't think the police shot anyone to be honest. I thought the gang members killed each other. Anyway, I don't remember anyone on here decrying criminals killing each other.
Yup. Anyone hear of Altamont? Outlaw motorcycle thugs have been creating havoc since the 60s.
Killing the guy was unfortunate. However, the Hell's Angels had been hired to do security at the event, and the followed they stabbed to death had a gun and had already fired one shot at the stage after going to his car to get his gun so he could kill Mick Jagger.
Yep. Glad they shot so many of each other dead....absolutely thugs.
You may notice we don't have anyone showing up crying that they were "good guys", blaming cops, blaming society, saying they were turning their lives around etc?
Nope. They were a drug dealing, gun toting, gang of thugs.
P.S. Chicago averages about 1 gang member killed daily throughout the year. This is pretty tame except that it was 9 at once.
Are you actually comparing this to incidents where one unarmed person was shot for a petty crime or in one case, no crime? How is this comparable in any way to the cases people have been protesting? I actually think if it had been a black gang, this thread would be 20 pages by now, and there would be countless posts calling for death or the very least "emigration back to Africa". People are very "meh" about this IMO compared to how it would be if it were someone else/somewhere else. There is very little of the same vitriol or passion being unleashed on these guys from the forum, just "Oh, yeah, those gangs have always been bad, yawn".
Do you really, honestly think if this gang had been black and had a gunfight in a public restaurant, people would be upset that some were killed by the police? You are the proof that some just don't get it.
They are thugs. Clear enough the term isn't about race.
When I saw the story, I assumed many would use it here on purpose, just so you could add that little dig like you did above. There are actually TOO many here saying "thug" to make it seem natural to me. To me it seems more like "LOOK. see here, we're using it for WHITE people, that PROVES it has nothing to do with race.
I love how a story about a white biker gang couldn't even go 2 pages without someone bringing up blacks, and "how come no one's protesting THIS?"
I just read the original thread about this (the one that doesn't call them thugs)...one person said they're behaving like children, for goodness sake, and another pointed out how much better this crime is versus black crime gangs because this gang only seemed to shoot at each other and didn't destroy anyone's property!

Figures. Sadly, some people will never see the double standard.
A question. Everyone keeps saying these were white biker gangs, but I was under the impression that the Bandidos are a Mexican biker gang. Is that incorrect?
