Ok, Mountain Cruiser, I'll bite...since you keep bringing up the the legal use of justifiable deadly force etc, etc, I have a question for you. What about the culpable act of exiting the safe confines of the local establishment, for the purpose of participating in a potentially violent or other non-peaceful activity, while knowingly being armed with a deadly weapon? Are you suggesting its ok to raise hell, start fights, and then when you lose the fight to shoot the other combatants?

The castle doctrine allows an armed individual to legally defend him/herself while in a vehicle, or personal dwelling, using force including and up to deadly force, but I am not aware of a law that allows an individual to knowingly, willingly (voluntarily) involve themselves in a dangerous (criminal??) situation, and then use deadly force, when as a result of his/her own personal illegal actions, he/she feels as though the danger has become life threatening.

Unless we're talking about George Zimmerman, but he's not involved in this, or Florida...ummm

In any case, I find it hard to believe that any court is going to believe that "taking it outside" with potentially dangerous and angry people is a good idea. Nor are they likely to believe that going outside, knowing you are (1)likely to get in a physical confrontation and (2) armed with a deadly weapon, are decisions a law abiding citizen would make. BUT...this was in Florida! ARGH!

That's the problem right there. IO is a club that proudly boasts of having ATF Agents in their club. That would be the last ****ing thing i would brag about. Gonna shut up and just not go there.

They don't fear repercussions because they can pull a gun and use deadly force, and it's all legal.

They've gotten someones attention now, and I don't believe they quite understand how far it can go. Cops may stay in the club, because after all, they have a badge and gun. Rest of the clowns?? I predict some Harleys may flood ebay soon.

I get it, io acts like *** hats and gets into a scuffle with M/C, instead of fighting like men, chicken **** io members will pull guns. yeah, that sounds so cool.

go ahead, you guys escalate.....just realize what you are doing....bold brash crap like that will eventually get people put in bags....stupid...

Follow the law of the land and it is likely that you won't have any problem.

I, by and large, am a law abiding citizen, also. So what? So are the vast majority of all club members. But, you wouldn't know that, as you obviously have never spent any time with members of outlaw clubs.

If you want to dress up in your IO outfit, by all means go for it. Then go by yourself to a local club bar and see how that works out for you. Let me know in advance, so maybe I can come watch.

Social rules and norms. They exist throughout our society. Take a Sociology class and learn something.

You make some valid speculative points that should be resolved through the justice system.

I don't acknowledge your rules and norms as being valid. I have the right to wear what I want within the law of the United States of America. Your problem with that is yours alone.

Don't assault people and you won't have to worry about getting shot for it.
