Truth Shall Set You Free
by Hank McGrath
The American Biker Culture Center is offering
a free D.U.P.A. (Documenting Unjust Police Aggression) seminar to ALL bikers and motorcyclists on Sunday, May
19th, 2013 from 1-4 pm at Dino Petrocelli Photography Studios at 872 Old Albany
Shaker Road, . The seminar, hosted by Hold Our Own Destiny MC and sponsored by
B.A.D., The Rabin Law Firm, Steve’s Custom Jewelry & Repair, Adirondack
Seafood Co., Dino Petrocelli Photography and PopsMediaPro.com, offers a clear
insight as to your rights to film/record and document unjust police aggression. Guest Speakers: Attorney Ben Rabin (Legal
Right), Mike Willig (Constitutional Right), Hank McGrath & Lisa Petrocelli –
rights of reporters and how to get the word to press, Security specialist and
professional videographer, Harold Bryant and biker rights advocate Dave Tumor
Combs will display various audio/video equipment motorcyclists may use to safely
record an “unusual encounter” – for their safety.
The key
words here are: Document Unjust Police Aggression. In the early civil rights days just sayin
there was a hangin never made a difference. DOCUMENTING the actual atrocity
opened the eyes of the masses from here to kingdom come. One of the greatest
tools used by police against bikers and motorcyclists has been their supposed
“word” of how things happened. Hell, any pro can tell ya that even at a crime
scene most everyone has a different tale to tell of what they saw – The same
with the police and the biker…two different perspectives.
A major part of the problem in
not establishing equal justice to those in the biker culture comes directly from
the cultures lack of documenting the TRUTH. The biker believes in his word. The
police have a weird blue line garbled jamboree of applications of truth
depending on who the party they are arresting is… and we wont even go there
regarding what a DA does with the truth! It is very possible that just 3 to 10
documentations throughout the State this year could actually cause greater civil
and constitutional protections for ALL BIKERS AND MOTORCYCLISTS…
We need to compile data which can
be used to show and prove how bikers and motorcyclists experience injustice,
bias and discrimination by the authorities and that “culture” should be a
protected class as a way to preclude extreme acts of aggression by
authorities against bikers and motorcyclists.
ALL BIKERS AND MOTORCYCLISTS are
free to attend. For more information contact the Center via email at americanbikerculture@yahoo.com or call Hank McGrath at (518)
