After hearing and reading about some of the new laws and restrictions that various goverments are forcing on us as motorcycle riders and as individuals (leaning more and more everyday towards a social-communist society), I have decided that some groups/clubs in the long run just do not matter much except for the social part. However, in order to continue to enjoy the social clubs (whether or not they accept our bikes), personal freedom needs to be fought for. I have decided I have had enough. I have now joined the AMA, ABATE and the MRF. I am hoping very much that those organizations do not start to turn on us and actually will help stand up (and stay standing) for individual rights as motorcyclists and people.
Who would have ever thought that in America, we would have to fight our own goverment for freedom? Here is a list of groups that supposedly are suppose to get involved with goverments to stand up for our rights and freedoms. I know there are more, but this is what I could come up with for now.
