No Hells Angels ban, rules high court

Friday 26 June 2009

The public prosecution department has again failed in its efforts to have a chapter of the Hells Angels, located Friesland resort of Harlingen, broken up and disbanded.

The high court on Friday upheld earlier court decisions in favour of the motorcycle gang.

The public prosecution department had asked for the gang to be banned, arguing that it is a criminal organisation. Efforts to ban Hells Angels groups in other parts of the country have also failed.

I hope the government keep a short leash on these criminals. Can anyone produce a good thing that this group of aged balding white men with a collective IQ of 6 has done? They run on criminal activities but are allowed to continue? Perhaps they are seeking religious recognition like the whacky scientologists?

I Have been a Hells Angel Assosieate since i was 11 years old; I have been wrongfully slandered and framed and convicted due to failur to defend by bigoted lawer;s and corupted judges. The persacution on me even scares some of the hells Angels from assosieating with me.HAFFHA Ripvanwienkle

Not every member of Hells Angels is a criminal and they do a lot of positive things that you are obviously not aware of. Not allowing them to organize is not going to prevent them from being or change a damn thing. I have known a few members in my lifetime and would be proud to associate with them and join their group.

every HELLS ANGEL I have ever had the priviledge of knowing was very smart along with a few who I would consider geniouses in there own way so before commenting maybe you should try to know some of these people as they have alot of same values and morals that most people in this world have!!!

In every "group" on this planet (being a motorcycle club or a religious society etc.) you will find one or two rotten apples ! No reason to have the entire group banned..!
My encounters with members of the HA (at supportparties, bikemeetings etc.) never made me feel uncomfortable or threathened.
