    A guy got beat up (allegedly) in a police van so people burnt the damn town down, PEOPLE that live IN that town.

    Vs.

    2 or 3 different biker gangs ended up at the same place at the wrong time.

    Those two things are NOT the same.

    People that loot and burn and tear things up just because of some outrage are thugs I don't care if they are black, white, orange, mauve, or a combination of all of them. Thugs.

    Bikers that break the law are equally thugs, regardless of patch, or color or what type of sled they have.

    What the actual fuck is your point?

    It's been made numerous times, it's not my fault you don't understand. There are a lot of people who do.

    Wait, perception is reality right? Or is that total bullshit? Remember, it's your quote.

    Bro, we get it, racism is still a very prominent issue but that has not 1 damn thing to do with a bunch of loons setting fire to their own damn town nor the bikers shooting up a Twin Peaks

    Sad part is, he probably has no idea what he feels guilty about. MSNBC just told him he should feel guilty so he does.

    the way the media is covering this is his point, I watched a segment on Fox news were the guest basically said that biker gangs can help fight Americas "real enemy" insinuating that they arent a real threat to society.
    NPR had a segment on this were the guest basically equated the guys to every day family men, with blue collar jobs, etc.

    Looters are thugs, but these guys are every day joes who like to ride harleys.
    I think that is what LaSalle is getting at.

    There are a lot of everyday joes who like to ride harleys. They are not members of criminal outlaw biker gangs like the Bandidos, the Hell's Angels, Sons of Silence, Pagans, and others. Those guys are thugs. They are professional criminals.
