    The old saying “you don’t see any OLD gangbangers or OLD 1%’s” because they are either dead or in jail. So it’s good to see Mel and George talk about it but they don’t try to glamorize it in any way. To see men that have seen ALOT talk about their faith is awesome

    My dad (Charles Wilson aka Chico) was a member on the Dayton, Ohio HELLS ANGELS. My dads era was the most violent “1970-80s…Being his child I seen a lot growing up. I could of been a member, but I chose a different path. “rip Dad 🙏🏻” On another note, the Hells Angels were not ones to play with…These viewers are sleeping on this podcast. Definitely deserves more thumbs. It’s one of the best podcast in the space right now. The guest are on point and the conversation is the realest. I’m a huge fan! 🫡

    When my uncle Jimmy Souza passed away my mom said even his enemies showed up at his funeral to pay respect, reminds me of this guy. My uncle was the president of the san francisco chapter back then but he still managed to show up at my school talent shows and functions like that. I had no idea how respected he was till I saw the pic of the motorcycles on the road for as far as the eyes could see for his funeral on the front page of the newspaper. Not too many solid ones like these guys in those ranks.

    Man, this story sure strikes close to home. I too was unable to give a 100% to the Club (different Club) I was a member of and Honorably turned in my patch and got out. I gave my life to Christ, and my Wife and Daughter (she was 4 yrs old). That was in 2001. I still love and miss my Brothers and still see them on occasion, but the Lord had different plans for my life through the example set by my Wife. I Praise his name every day and am grateful that I have been able to spend my life with my Daughter as she grew up and with my Wife and her guiding light. He knew that I needed to be a part of raising my Daughter and draw closer to my Wife. I am truly unworthy. Thank you Lord. 🙏🙏🙏

When I was getting the shit kicked out of me by a much older and bigger kid, mom’s friends husband came out with his cut on and protected me.

      Does Hartland CT. Long ago some HAs protected a small group of children. My niece can't recall the county, or the town, but she remembers what the lead man said as they came into a park with a lake and brick apartments across the street. There were other men in the park looking at my niece and other children. The HAs leader said, "we need to help those children at no cost." Although this was around '75, they may not be alive now. But she thinks about it all the time, that she never got a chance to say Thank You.
      My sister, her Mom was told of the incident and Praised God for sending His Angels to protect her daughter and her friends....
      A lot has changed, my brother Jesse was a HA, and he promised to Protect his niece, especially her, and I. We were told they'd come, that was 2 yrs ago... We keep continuing to Pray for help. It's just her and I. And God keeps saying that He's sending help. We are still praying and believing that help is coming.... There are no Club's here at all, that we know of.... My niece has PTSD and TBI, has learned to walk and talk again and is seizure free again, Praise God 🙏.... Sorry for rambling on and on....

    HA's were never able to establish a clubhouse (in the city) of Chicago. Maybe right after the henchmen patched over they did for a little while but when the old (now broken) truce was made with OL's they agreed to stay out of Chicago city limits and settled in Harvey, IL a south east suburb of Chicago. But ive actually seen them riding in Chicago on 2 occasions, and they have Chicago Bottom rockers. Im sure a few may live in chicago, but there's never been an official HA clubhouse in chicago. But there are rumors of a secret bar they have on the southwest side on Cermack Ave that they use as a sort of outpost/clubhouse.

    Love and respect. Grew up around the HA. Knew some good guys that are no longer with us due to rivalries. All men that didn't deserve that fate. People need to learn from the path and choices of others. Life is short.

    man. i saw some photos of this guy when he was younger and he was absolutely massive. he is still an absolute beast of a man. there’s no wonder why people gravitated to him. to a lot of people this guy is a “REAL MAN” i aspire to be more like Mel Chancey.

    There's a book you can check out at the library all about the war btwn the two clubs . it's very accurate, " Three can keep a secret if two are dead." If you're interested in more info. I forget the name of the author. It's worth the read tho.
