I know that you might not fully agree with me, but you need to understand that this isn’t just about back patches. Well, whether that is true or not, the actions of one or a few members should not mean that the whole group is destroyed by taking away their unique back patch design.
Now, you might be tempted to respond that some of the Mongols MC are bad guys. This is exactly what is being argued in court right now over the back patch design of the Mongols Motorcycle Club. So, what would you think if the government told you that you couldn’t wear your patch any more because they had legally taken away your copyright to your unique patch design because of the actions of one or two of your groups members. I got a lot of pictures, which you can see below, and I have added some video of the Arm Wrestling that I upload to Facebook. It is public so you don’t need a Facebook account to watch it. In addition to the meeting, we had some good grub provided by the Hanovers kitchen, and of course the Arm Wrestling competition has now become an annual event. Anyway, hopefully this particular case will be behind us forever. In particular we heard that the Mongols won their case, when the Judge threw out all 27 inditements because you cannot bring a case against an entity, you have to bring a case against people.
We managed to keep the meeting relatively short, down to about an hour, but in that time we managed to get updates from all the usual speakers.
Pairing up events is always a good idea, especially in our event heavy area, but this was particularly good because it brought together lots of clubs and independents from the large central Texas area for the COC&I meeting. We had the COC&I meeting for September at Hanovers inPflugerville, and it was paired up with a benefit to support the US Defenders and Save the Patch.
