     Media beat up .......... wtf    ,  they ( so'called Outlaw bike gangs ) bring it all on themselvs      , no sympathy from me .

     the only thing that shit's me is that we get tared with the same brush .

    So far the "balanced, fair and impartial" media promo's are touting it as the "Terrorist" episode...  Thank fark, for a while I actually thought they were gonna sensationalise it...

    Well the promo has fucked me off, I am being called a terrorist, "This is what a terrorist looks like"

    the public perception of a terrorist now includes a bloke on a harley wearing a black mask and half helmet.

    Our HOG rides must scare the state into Rannic, how the hell can I vote Labor again???

    This showing will tarnish us all with the same brush I'm affraid. Not good for the FREE cause particularly with the Gawler run coming up.

    if the milpara masacre is the best of the bikie wars, 27 years later the boys have gone soft, pathetic journalism, but the public will lap it up

    I have no sympathy for the bad element of the bikie gangs, especially the drug manufacturing and selling, but I thought the show tonight was a one sided affair. Everyone they interviewed were the Police side. They spoke to that Campbell bloke but he didn't have a view either way, in my opinion, he just told his story.
    What surprised me was that they didn't have much about the new Legislation here in SA, maybe the show was made a while ago.
    I agree the rest of us Harley riders are being labelled with the "biker bad image", which is not good and we are subjected to overzealous actions by the plod.

    another thing I picked as odd,
    When the 4 Guys on bikes were surrounding the copper and family car, they were not wearing colours, this I well is wrong, I believe these chaps in clubs always wore their colours when riding

    What a fuckin beat up, the public will take it as fact, after all it was on tv. Get ready for another round of the pollies trying to gain poitical advantage from a scare campaign based on bullshit especially here in Qld where we are about to elect a new Premier.

    journalism is all about getting ratings and selling papers now ... letting the truth get in the way is another thing

    was it right that hancock got blown up, no not realy, but the reality also is that if he did kill the biker he was never going to get punished for it, the big blue gang protects their own ..his wife made him out to be a saint, as they always do lol

    I havent really watched the series but I dont believe they want to get an opinion, from both sides, they just want to highlight the "gang" side of things

    the campbell brother didnt seem to add much to it, without knowing the whole story of why, it did however seem shitful that he got kicked out of the club after the shooting ..but me thinks there is much more to it than was reported

    there is no doubt club members are involved in the criminal side ..just a shame everyone gets tarred with the same brush, but that is human nature as well

    I got a good laugh out of it tho

    "You could tell the real file footage, it was repeated 400 times "

    You are spot on with that comment Sumpoil, as I noticed that same black Anniversary Softail Standard many times over. Made me feel all nostalgic as it was exactly the same as my old bike.................(times like this you wish you could afford to keep the old ones as well)

    On ABC radio this morning they had the Police Commissioner on as per usual, weekly blurb, and they had one call about this show. It was from a older woman and she believed it as factual  100%, so I guess that's how a lot of people would react to these shows.

    He did say in his comments that it's not about targetting ordinary bike riders...............SUUUUUUURRRREEEE !!!

    Well slap my knee and colour me blonde, like an idiot, I thought they were "dramatisations", errr that means they weren't real fellas... You could tell the real file footage, it was repeated 400 times throughout the boring, inaccurate pile of horseshit... Can't wait to see next weeks apologies... My missus summed it up, perfectly... Sound asleep by the second lot of ads...
