Hells Angels are moving into my area for the first time. I have a generally negative view of them, but have some friends who feel otherwise. I would love to hear your experiences related to the Angels specifically, but "1%" clubs as well.

I used to work at a restaurant owned by some shady folk back in the day. They don't want heat or attention so by and large they don't fuck with regular people. They'd all hang out and gather at the restaurant, but it was always very social and never saw any violence or anything.. Mostly they were running scams etc.

What kind of scams? Amway, Tupperware, herbalife?

All the biker gangsters having Tupperware parties sounds like fun

Now I can't do anything but imagine a bunch of patched biker dudes slinging Scentsy on the side
