Not all bikers are racist of course. But there are racist bikers. I could not get a good look at the patches in that video but a lot of people did not have patches also. And from the variety of vehicles, motorcycles, scooters, and four wheelers I would speculate that if it was a club not all of them belong to the club but were local people that were friends with the deceased. They might have been asked to ride in support of the deceased.
Some of them might have been right wing racist people, more likely neo-nazis or libertarians than Republicans, but it's hard to generalize about bikers. Lots of them are vets & tend to be nationalistic. Also, tend to resist authority and are often hung up with machismo and toughness, which plays into the right wing ethos. But those are all generalizations. Why did you bring it up? Why would a Canadian scrutinize photos in a notorious right wing sensationalist Murdoch tabloid to discern writings on the back of bikers' jackets. I watched that video and could barely make out that most of them had anything on the back of their jackets, let alone some continent. Reminds me of the time one of my mother's friends called her to tell her about a communist hammer and sickle on a box of Morten's salt. Mom took a look and reported back: "That's a cent sign". The Post was just doing its "Heads we win, tails you lose" thing. The government of New York is Democrat, so they report the story of the NYPD not taking action against a biker gang attending a funeral and thereby seeming to break the rule on social distancing. If the NYPD had taken action, the headline would have been "Fascist Cops Arrest Mourners at Funeral". If there was violence, it would have been "Cops Start Riot". Discretion is the better part of valor. The NYPD has a lot on its hands right now. No wonder you think the way you do. Reading that stuff can rot your brain!
the news source scrutinized it saying they don’t know who they are or who it was for. I looked at the video to see if I could see hells angels or Satan’s choice on the jackets, something. Noticed what looked like a continent on some jackets. That sinmple.
I agree, it was a biker ride club more than a bikers gang, I thought so too. Still can’t say how they voted either. Bikers aren’t reserved for one ethnicity either, neither is racism. But some want to say exactly who and what they are that broke the rules. But I too think it was just for support, who may have voted left or right! It doesn’t matter how the person voted.
Yes.... Majority are. _____________________________________________________________________________ As for the rest of this trash below.. Yeah, you came up with this as I said nothing of the sort.
Majority are? You know a lot of bikers? What ethnicity are bikers? I really can’t say one way or the other. Last biker I met was a guy who did rides for children who have been molested, and showed up at court trials and offered support to the families. I was going to jury duty at the time, as for the rest, I was asking questions. Note the question marks.
Bikers when they ride Hardly Dangerous Motorcycles are a bunch of guys who want to present the image of toughness and usually support the Republican Party which allows them to have concealed carry permits for their guns.
You are simply a hateful human being. Anything that does not fit into your stereotype must be racist, white and Christian. It is yet again apparent you don’t know what you are talking about, good luck out there, you need all the help you can get. single exit poll may give an imperfect picture of the national vote. Instead, the exit poll is primarily used to calculate swing and turnout, is also used to speculate before the vote is over, and often used to influence voters through media sources, How exactly does exit polls tell you if someone is white, or black, or Latino, or Asian, or if someone is racist and if someone is or isn’t a biker?
There are two main types of bikers, one type likes to form gangs, travel in packs, etc. The other kind are individualists that ride alone or with one or two other people. Those who gravitate to outlaw gangs, or even clubs, tend to reside in Clare Graves "Red Stage": I used to work at a cycle shop and knew the local chapter head of the Pagans, also another guy who was an enforcer, among others. The last time I ran into one he was complaining about always running from the police and carrying guns everywhere.Said he was getting tired of it. I also know an undercover agent who has infiltrated bike gangs in the past. You don't want to mess with these people. Not good. Many Republicans also exist in the "Red Stage".
One positive of all this is Americans are forced to explore left wing ideas. Now checks from the government are fine and not "socialist" for example. And it would seem we have lived under Sharia Law for the last month. So you could almost say Trump has been very pro Muslim. By following his plocies we get to see how American freedom and Islam might mix.
Trying to sound clueless while attempting to seem more intelligent than everybody else is just generally not a good idea....
is this why you got a bike? To present yourself as tough? Are you a republican in disguise? Do you carry a concealed weapon and do you have a permit to do so?
By the way, my province just issued an amber alert, it cuts into phones, internet and television. All essential workers are told to stay home, it said. first time this has happened where it is used for something other than children.
