I've been thinking carefully about how to respond to all this....and debating whether or not to 'come clean'.....
so.....
I am a member of a UK backpatch club(No,I'm not M.C.), and would like to put clearly on record the following.
I earned my patch.
I do not engage in acts of violence
nor criminal behaviour
Nor do I condone these by others-from whatever source.
My point?
Please judge the idividual by their actions not their clothes and supposed lifestyle.
I hold down a responsible job and consider myself an asset to the community and many of my fellow club members would be considerd the same.
(Though I'm still awful careful who I lend that chainsaw to.)
