the fucking Mongols

2018-01-23 18:59:02 UTC  

okay, I guess the biggest gangs are big enough to be multi-national

2018-01-23 18:59:09 UTC  

Finks actually merged with the Hell's Angels in order to combat them

2018-01-23 18:59:38 UTC  

Got so bad a conservative(ish) government got elected to crack down on it all

2018-01-23 18:59:46 UTC  

Arguably went overboard, although it certainly appears to have worked

2018-01-23 18:59:53 UTC  

And after that they got voted out again

2018-01-23 18:59:58 UTC  

they probably kind of have to be in order to get drugs smuggled in, since I doubt they produce them here

2018-01-23 19:00:42 UTC  

Well, the irony with biker gangs is their lack of subtlety

Most crime orgs try to actually be inconspicuous

2018-01-23 19:00:53 UTC  

To an extent, biker gangs are too

2018-01-23 19:01:02 UTC  

But it reached a point here where they were just way too brazen

2018-01-23 19:01:11 UTC  

yeah, at least the ones I've seen around

2018-01-23 19:01:41 UTC  

here, they usually just have these places called "rockerborge", which means biker-fortress (or rocker fortress, rocker being the danish term for a criminal biker)

2018-01-23 19:01:51 UTC  

that's not really irony, is it

2018-01-23 19:01:56 UTC  

which is a building that everyone knows is owned by criminals

2018-01-23 19:02:11 UTC  

as a biker your are camouflaged against the herd, like zebras

2018-01-23 19:02:11 UTC  

Whoops, Finks merged with Mongols to combat the Comancheros

2018-01-23 19:02:25 UTC  

the cops can't arrest you all, there's always someone there to pick up the ball

2018-01-23 19:02:32 UTC  

But it was a Finks member patching over into the Hell's Angels that was the spark for most of the fireball that followed

2018-01-23 19:03:03 UTC  

glad I don't have to navigate their politics, or world in general

2018-01-23 19:03:05 UTC  

fucked up people

2018-01-23 19:03:09 UTC  

so in order to avoid an everlasting cops-and-robbers, society accepts a certain level of crime as long as the bikers keep it contained

2018-01-23 19:03:16 UTC  

they're not fucked up at all

2018-01-23 19:03:22 UTC  

lol

2018-01-23 19:03:29 UTC  

it's much easier to get along with a biker gang than the government

2018-01-23 19:03:31 UTC  

yeah nah, last thing you should want to do is attract attention, which these guys did. Regardless of this 'herd' approach you're talking about, the cops will just zero in on the higher-ups, in which case even the higher-ups want their underlings to settle the fuck down

2018-01-23 19:03:44 UTC  

yeah, until you owe them money

2018-01-23 19:03:54 UTC  

then you can kiss that ease goodbye

2018-01-23 19:03:59 UTC  

that's not true, that's just a myth

2018-01-23 19:04:01 UTC  

Hence why so many sergeant-at-arms members are often the ones beating up members of their own gang when they're bringing too much heat on everyone

2018-01-23 19:04:14 UTC  

I've had friends in protection programs because of these fucks

2018-01-23 19:04:43 UTC  

yes, I know they beat up people, what I'm saying is that that's one of the things we accept as a society

2018-01-23 19:04:53 UTC  

generally the people who owe them money are degenerate fucks anyway

2018-01-23 19:05:08 UTC  

dude, they were shooting each other in fucking airports.

2018-01-23 19:05:22 UTC  

[8:03 PM] folk: so in order to avoid an everlasting cops-and-robbers, society accepts a certain level of crime as long as the bikers keep it contained

2018-01-23 19:05:31 UTC  

You'll have to forgive me for not accepting criminals

2018-01-23 19:05:36 UTC  

shooting eachother at airports is not "contained"

2018-01-23 19:05:42 UTC  

no shit

2018-01-23 19:05:44 UTC  

10/10

2018-01-23 19:05:50 UTC  

yes so why did you say that :P

2018-01-23 19:05:51 UTC  

kinda the point

2018-01-23 19:06:00 UTC  

I never disputed your point
