Usually, I’m the first to have the back of the 1%ers out there. Most,
if not 95% of 1%ers are hard working blue collar people who go to work
every day to support their families, come home and go out there and live
the lifestyle all of us love. They ride hard, they party even harder,
and most if not always, have their brothers back.
Today, in this instance, I have to break with some of them. Everyone
who pays attention to what’s going on out there in the club scene has
heard about the shooting down in Florida. The President of the
Outlaws MC Cross Bayou Chapter was allegedly gunned down by 3 members of the
69ers.
I guess the shooter was beaten up in a bar by some Outlaws which led to
this incident. So the mentality is on the streets, 69ers had no choice
but to hit back. So what did they do? They upped the game by going for a
kill on a chapter president. In old street code, that would’ve been
against everything every club would’ve been against, the crime, as they
say, didn’t fit the crime. One is beaten, then a retaliation would’ve
been to beat back, not go for a kill.
That is what the new norm is I guess, escalate a situation that could
be avoided just by an equal response, or better yet, men sitting down
at a table and solving the problem as men. A member and President of an
AOA chapter was
gunned down, now the AOA will escalate the situation by taking one of
theirs out, or god forbid more than one. This will lead to many people
being hurt or killed until someone either folds, or a truth is reached.
Florida being an AOA stronghold, I doubt that any negotiations will be
in the works.
Manuel
Issac RodrÃguez, 40, aka, “Candy Man.” According to Amy Irene White’s
WordPress blog, she reported that the Bandidos, Hells Angels, Vagos,
Mongols, a couple from the Cossacks was present too (White confirmed the
Cossacks presence on her comments section) and multiple other rival
motorcycle clubs and groups attended the funeral service for RodrÃguez
who was killed on May 17 at the Twin Peaks Restaurant during a brawl
between the Cossacks and Bandidos M.C.s, which involved the Waco police
SWAT team
Now the situation will lead to bloodshed, why is that? Because bikers
won’t come together to a table like they did in the late 60’s and talk
out their problems, and abide by the rules they set way back then. Now
it’s all about being a gangster, it’s about the few in the 1%er clubs
wanting to make money. Those who are out there making the money have
used their club and brothers to advance not what is good for the
brotherhood, but for the almighty dollar.
I have only one question for those 1%ers. Is the money worth it? Did
you make enough to justify the prison time, the death of brothers? Was
the money worth leaving widows and children to fend for themselves while
some go off to the prison or the grave?
Today is a tough time to be gangsters, it’s not the late 80s and 90s
where we could get away with almost anything. Today technology makes it
almost impossible to do anything remote that was done in those time
periods. Shit, just look at this incident. Hours after the shooting, the
newspapers had the pictures up on the internet and the shooters from
the
69ers
were already locked up. All within a few hours, so again I ask, was it
worth doing the shooting right in the open during daylight for one,
secondly was it worth losing the rest of your life behind bars because
of a beating? There were 3 individuals arrested in this incident when I
came up through the ranks in the early 90’s, I remember it like it was
yesterday, I was told: “For every 3 members, 1 will always be a rat”.
Well, 3 were arrested here, how much you want to bet one turns?
In the motorcycle club scene, we are starting to see a noticeable split. Those clubs that are apart of the
National Confederation of Clubs, and those clubs that are starting to gravitate towards the
“Alliance of Law Abiding Clubs”.
Why? Because many clubs want nothing to do with all the BS that comes
along with being a club attached to a 1%er club. People want to be able
to be apart of a traditional club, one that was put together to ride
hard and party hard, not one that is being watched by the feds 24/7.
It’s almost 2018, people along with technology are smarter than at
the beginning of the 1980s, why is that time period being brought up?
Because in the hopes of being honest, the early 1980’s is when
motorcycle clubs turned from being all about riding and brotherhood to
the storm of what protocol should be to start up something. The protocol
started to be established because of territorial disputes between the
major clubs, thus when a club started, they wanted to make sure what
side of the fence you were on. Agree or not, believe it or not, just
being real and honest with my readers. That’s why you will always hear
me say “Don’t care how your club starts if you can defend your patch,
more power to you”. Many are huge believers in a protocol, personally,
I’m a street kid who went through the ranks of different organizations
before I was a biker, and always believed if you could back it up,
nothing else mattered.
1%er clubs need to start realizing the need to evolve. Things that
worked in the past for them, will not work for them today. Generational
thinking is one of the biggest changes facing 1%er clubs. Most of the
old fellows from the Vietnam War who started some of the strongest clubs
in the world are starting to retire from the club scene, the generation
now does not share the same way of thinking that those men had. The
generations coming in now don’t see the need for motorcycle clubs, they
rather stay independent and just ride around with friends. This is going
to start hurting the ranks of the major 1%er clubs because it will be
harder and harder to recruit anyone worth a crap. Add in these wars,
recruitment will get non-existent because no one wants to risk their
life or prison time for a bunch of stupid shit unless of course clubs
start recruiting straight from the street gangs, then is it really a
motorcycle club?
This is only wishful thinking on my part because I know it will never
happen, but it’s time for all the major 1%er clubs to take a page out
of Lucky Luciano’s book. That man was a genius, he knew all the fighting
and wars were bad for business. So what did he do? He formed the
commission, all the major outfits were included in it, they all sat at a
table and worked out issues so to avoid all the Fed attention and
anything that would get in the way of business. Just think, if the major
1%er clubs formed a true commission (Not the Confederation of Clubs, a
true commission) the clubs would have a fucking army around the world.
Everyone has their set territories, and everyone is happy. A problem
comes up, bring it to the commission to solve it without all the
headlines. Right now the only organization winning anything is the dam
Feds.
‘On
July 4, 1979, the worst mass killing in Charlotte’s history took place
at a ramshackle two-room house in north Charlotte. Five members or
associates of the Outlaws motorcycle club were slain in a shooting spree
that probably lasted fewer than 10 seconds. This was thought to be done
by the Hells Angels, But later discovered not to be the case
Police Solve 1979 Murders- “Was just a beef, not rival Hells Angels”
The Feds are already pursuing the
Mongols Patch,
we have the idiots setting up the Twin Peaks crap, maybe it’s time for
those National and International Presidents of 1%er clubs to get smart
and outwit them, because if you don’t, the 1%er way of life will become
non- existent in the coming years. The trend is starting to show now on
the streets, think about it, you have clubs that are actually joining a
police ran association and calling themselves “Law Abiding”. That is
quite far from a traditional motorcycle club, but it’s something that is
becoming the norm, and that norm, will start eroding at everything the
1%er is supposed to be about.
We all know how the 1%er came to be, the
AMA crap
and all, but that 1%er back then wasn’t about killing each other over a
patch or territory. Back then the 1%er gave the finger to everyone
because they wanted to ride and party as they wished, they didn’t need
society to tell them how to act, how to look. So, how did it all come to
people in clubs killing each other over a piece of real estate? Think
about it for a minute, dudes are getting in fights and getting blown
away for what is on that bottom rocker, sound kind of trivial? What’s
even more trivial is the fact that the same person you cannot stand in
another club because of those colors he wears, would or could be your
best friend if he didn’t wear them. You both have something in common,
the love of motorcycles, the want of a brotherhood, something more
genuine in life.
2018 looks like it’s going to be a busy news cycle concerning
motorcycle clubs, not for the good that many do, but for the many clubs
that will be burying brothers, simply because they cannot let go of the
past, sit at a table and move forward from all the past crap that
brought on all the scores that need to be settled. It is our hope, that
leaders in these clubs will start seeing the writing on the wall, change
the direction of what is going on before all of us loose. This is not
being over dramatic, one only has to look at Australia, and the march
the Feds are on right now with the
Mongols and
Twin Peaks incidents to realize shit in the motorcycle club scene can come to a halt if clubs don’t get it together.

PASCO COUNTY, FL – Three motorcycle gang members have been arrested
in the death of a rival gang leader who was killed Thursday afternoon in
a shooting on a Suncoast Parkway exit ramp, Pasco County Sheriff Chris
Nocco said. The shooting occurred in the area of the Suncoast Parkway
and State Road 54.
Nocco said three members of the
69ers motorcycle club were arrested and charged with first-degree murder.
On Thursday afternoon, Nocco said someone called 911 after they heard
gunshots in the area. The caller said she saw two motorcycles stopped
near a truck at a traffic light on the northbound exit ramp. She heard
three pops and the motorcycle riders rode off. When deputies arrived,
they found the driver of the truck had been killed. Nocco identified the
shooting victim as Paul Anderson, 44. Anderson was the president of the
Cross Bayou Chapter of the
Outlaws motorcycle club, Nocco said.
Nocco described the incident as a “targeted shooting.” He said one of
the rival gang members walked up to Anderson’s vehicle, tapped on the
truck window, then shot him.
The three gang members arrested were identified as Christopher Brian
Cosimano, 29, who deputies described as the alleged shooter, Michael
Dominick Mencher, 53, whose nickname is “Pumpkin,” and Allan Burt
Guinto, 26, who allegedly drove a “scout car” during the shooting. The
scout car was used to ensure that the motorcycle riders were able to get
away. Mencher was arrested by Tampa police in downtown Tampa on Friday
morning.
Nocco said the motorcycle clubs had been feuding and Guinto had been beaten by
Outlaws gang members in a bar, the sheriff said.
The sheriff said there could be more gang violence in retaliation for
Anderson’s death. Gang members from across the country have learned of
Anderson’s death and may be headed to Florida, Nocco said.
