    I've been a biker my entire life, I'm in my sixties now and ride purely for pleasure. I lived in Oakland California in the 1960s and became a member of the Gypsy Jokers. From what I saw while I was in that club, it was mostly about riding and running speed throughout the Oakland and San Francisco area. Speed was our coffee and we used to use it and ride 4 hours on end. I never saw any of the hardcore crimes, but when one of the sergeants was tasked with killing a rival biker and was bragging about it, I had had enough. I moved out of the area and left no forwarding address, and left it at that. The sergeant was eventually and charged with murder. Then the charges were changed to justifiable homicide and he was set free. I don't know about anybody else, but I immediately knew that somebody on the Oakland homicide unit was in the pocket of the Joker's. It didn't surprise me at all because I knew that there were cops on the payroll of the Joker's for years.

    Thanks for sharing your experience of being a part of the Gypsy Jokers & leaving (good move). I lived in Copenhagen Denmark from 1994-2002. During that time there was a brutal, deadly biker war between the Hell's Angels & the Bandidos, very similar to the violence portrayed in this documentary. Bikers being shot in broad daylight on the streets of Denmark, the Bandidos firing a shoulder held rocket into the Hell's Angels Copenhagen city centre club house. It was all about territory. Eventually the H.A & the Bandidos agreed to carve up the nationwide territory & everything returned to business as usual. There's never been a documentary made about the Danish biker wars which lasted several years. Most people outside of Denmark don't even know about it. I moved to South East Asia after leaving Denmark & spent the next several years travelling & chilling out before eventually settling down in Portugal. Good times 🙂

    Whether you’re a corrupt cop or a gang member, it’s all about power, greed and a lack of conscience. No concept of common decency or thought for the people who just want a safe environment for their loved ones. Thugs and criminals, although, given the choice, I’d rather be imprisoned as a gang member than a crooked cop.

    This cop did bad things for a long time, yet this show never really condemns him. It rationalizes his conduct. It excuses his behaviour by returning to the it's so tough to be a cop argument. The justice system furthers the rationalization: let him serve a couple of years in minimum security. Even the cop himself rationalizes his behaviour at his parole hearing. He says he worked with these cases too long, creating a moral grey area, as if to say, it's tough being a cop, y'know. There is no such thing as hard hitting journalism in Canada, when the preferred members of society do bad things.

    @ 6:48, the Canadian policeman says, 'Our job is to protect people'. Well, that's not technically true. Their public 'duty' by law is to uphold statutes, write infraction traffic citations and apprehend law-breakers. Whatever protection they provide is incidental, by arresting those who disturb the peace by commission of statute crime, which in some few limited cases means apprehending those who make violent threats. But of course, since the neoliberal laize fair/reactionary era of Reagan/Thatcher and the War on Drugs, police have increasingly been corrupted by the enormous profits of drugs and collusion with organized crime gangs, selling info and influence, engaging in sideline extortion and running their own protection rackets.

    I have lost a lot of respect for police. There is no grey area for police eh? Then why is it that the police here do what is deemed unlawful in America? In fact they spend millions to do it. That is the complete fabrication of criminal acts perpetraed by themselves to ensnare whomever they target. Just recently I read of these convictions involving a cocaine import which ultimately snagged 2 HA members and another. However, there was no actual crime other than that which was created by the RCMP who posed as Colombian cartel men. So, while police botch, mishandle and claim a lack of manpower for real cases involving peoples lives such as missing persons and other serious incidents, they waste millions in resources to make up a crime then entrap(this is what makes these illegal in the US) whomever they have targetted. All perfectly legal. They get to create a cocaine importation conspiracy, target civilians then bust said civilians but ,obviously, nothing happens tto them, they are "law enforcement". Just like what they did to those 2 welfare clients to get a terrorism conviction. Thankfully they happened to get a judge who saw through the cops BS but how many others have been targeted and convicted based on crimes that never existed? The police can and do simply manufacture any type of crime they want in order to arrest people and I think this is insane in any free and democratic society. This is an example of a police state.

    Similar to Hochelaga, not easy to work there but with HA I had no trouble ,,,If cazzetta didn' hide in Ontario from an arrest warant, Mom would he have started the war...RM president had so much contacts and he replaced Rizutto mafia chief as referee and was responsible for the peace to end the war!

    Difference between the therapist and the rogue cop is one tried hiding their true thoughts. Standing the “moral high ground” after being the negotiator in Waco…. LoooooL

    Not sure where or how far reaching it was, but there was a time when the Hells Angels were trying to create a new reputation, making a real effort to be good citizens, going as far as catching criminals and doing good deeds!?! I wonder what happened?!!?

    Oh they still have propaganda campaigns here in Canada. Clean cut suits & ties driving mercedes etc sometimes, big VERY PUBLIC ride with toys for kids with cancer etc. Obviously just polishing the brand & their cover to anyone who pays attention but far too many people eat it up ugh
