How Do Biker Gangs Get Revenge? 😳
A former biker gang member recounts a retaliatory attack on rivals who had jumped four or five of their members. The crew tracked down three of the attackers at a bar, cut phone lines, and beat them severely, resulting in broken legs and lost teeth. The speaker describes it as operating freely due to a code of silence among bikers, bar owners, and patrons.
Summary
In this short clip, a former biker gang member describes a revenge attack carried out after four or five of their members were jumped by approximately 15 rival gang members. Following a group meeting the next day, they assembled a crew and began searching for the attackers.
They received a tip from a contact inside a bar that three of the rival gang members were present. The crew immediately mobilized, employing tactical methods they had learned — cutting phone lines to prevent calls to police, covering both the front and back doors, and entering with weapons including sap gloves and a ball-peen hammer.
The speaker describes being first through the door, fueled by adrenaline and testosterone, and cornering the rivals before they could react. The beating was severe enough that ambulances were required, with victims suffering broken legs and knocked-out teeth. The speaker notes that no charges were ever pressed because the rival bikers could not report the attack without implicating themselves, and bar owners and patrons maintained silence. He describes this environment as 'free reign' and frames the incident as a formative experience in his biker gang life.
