Let me tell you something: I have members in my charter who, after paying their rent and house bills and taking care of their families, don't even have enough money left over to pay the fifteen dollars a week dues.
If the challenge to fight was there, I always took it.
I've been fighting my whole life.
I'm in California a lot; I go overseas sometimes and I meet more Hells Angels than other Angels do.
I was a stuntman for over fifteen years.
Not exactly hit them, but I've restrained a few people.
There's probably about 150 charters in the world. We're the biggest international club there is.
You get to know them, they get to know you and see if they like you. Then they'll vote on you to become a prospect. You have to be sponsored by a Hells Angel.
When I was old enough to ride a motorcycle and got my license, I bought a '69 Sportster.
There was no club but the Hells Angels as far as I was concerned.
Then we have a World Run, where representatives from all the charters meet.
Sonny and another Hells Angel who was at the meeting thought they were beyond a little patch so they headed down to a local tattoo shop in Oakland and were the first to get the famous One Percent tattoos.
So it just goes to show you that it was always the Hells Angels first. They were the originals and all other clubs try and imitate what the Hells Angels have already done.
Now as far as the organization selling drugs, no. Individuals selling drugs is something else.
See, I'm fortunate that I get around a lot because of my movie business.
