TwiZted Biker was giving a possible explanation on why the HA member's name wasn't given. He wasn't implying that a HA wouldn't have helped if that's what you're referring to hagger?

I was referring to the demonizing of the club(s).

Good for the HA. Maybe they down played his actions because they can't send the signal to have the average guy in line to do the same thing. Someone less able may have been stabbed and or killed.

A little good press for them for a change. Kudo's the the HA and the press that saw fit to print it.

Anyone else surprised that the person who prevented the robbery wasn't arrested for carrying a weapon?

Nope. We don't bring a baton to a knife fight. Deadly force (firearm) justified. Again, before the cop bashing starts. The HA acted honorably. Most cops would give him a thumbs up and a thank you.

We could get into a lot I doubt you'd understand and I'm not not dissing you here but unless you've lived the other side under constant scrutiny and regular harassment by the popo you'd know why he had an oblivious non lethal but very effective ranged weapon on his person instead of a gun or a knife .

Being a patch holder a big set of ***** and the willingness to mix it up with a idiot like that was given , they guy was probably more pissed the stupid *** interpreted his calm more than anything else .

Stop inferring that all cops are out to get a 1%er at any cost. It simply isnt true.
Guessing you're speaking for FLA and not the rest of the country right?

I agree good for him.
