In what police are referring to as an "internal cleansing" of a biker gang, five people have been charged with first-degree murder in the slayings of eight men in southwestern Ontario.
The victims, whose bodies were found in a farmer's field near Shedden, and one of the suspects are all linked to the Bandidos outlaw biker gang, Ontario Provincial Police confirmed Monday.

Sorry, can't muster any sympothy when dirt-bags 'off' other dirt bags (Saw on CNN, I think, that the rest of the same gang was arrested, looks like an 'inside' job)

Biker gangs have their own websites?

What's next -  their own ad agencies?

Real meaning is that they are part of the 1% who live the life of real motorcycle rider outlaws.

Ha. Good one!

I've been following this because I used to live near there plus I have an old skydiver friend who's striking for the Hells Angels there. I was hoping he wasnt involved. He's a nice guy and I had no idea he was involved in all the years I knew him.

Those fun loving, socialable fellows who moved their operations to Canada have been bringing various items made in the great white north to this area.



The Bandidos started in Texas years ago and now they're world wide. What are they bringing down from Canada? Dope? Probably bringing guns back.

Quoted:
Many years ago (IIRC the early 60's sometimes) The AMA released a statement denouncing the outlaw biker culture and stating that 99% of all motorcycle enthusiasts were law abiding productive citizens.

Thats where the 1% thing came from.

ETA A quick Google


1%er = If you read the papers or listen to the news, the media and law enforcement agents have redefined the term "1%er". The term was first used in the 60’s to describe some of the people that attended the motorcycle events back then. The AMA (American Motorcycle Association) stated that 99% of the people at their events were god fearing and family oriented. The other 1% were hard riding, hard partying, non mainstream type people. Thus the term 1%er was born. Some of the early bikers embraced the term and decided to call themselves 1%ers.  It did not mean that they were law breakers or low life individuals. They were simply men that rode their motorcycles seven days a week in all kinds of weather, liked to drink and raise a little hell. Sometime during the 80’s law enforcement changed the meaning of the 1%er to what they wanted it to represent. It didn’t matter that their meaning was incorrect, they just spoon fed it to the general public and the courts as they had so many other things.






Interesting.  I never knew that.
