Don't you like it when the courts do something right.

that is one hell of a sacrifice for the victims to make, just so the one guy can spend 14 months in jail. and the other 4 years.

How about these 2 guys stay in jail for as long as the victims require a special identity? I think that would be justice.

The glory of this isn't that they were convicted of shaking down some black market satellite TV equipment dealer but that the Hells Angels are a criminal organization and when their members commit crimes wearing their logos, they can be charged under gang legislation also. This can work for all the others also.

boots with the words ‘Hells Angels North Toronto' and the death head logo,
belt bearing the words ‘Hells Angels' embroidered on it and a death head on its buckle,
T-shirt bearing the death head logo and the words ‘Hells Angels Singen,
necklace with a pendant of the Hells Angels death head logo,
jacket bearing the Hells Angels death head logo and the words ‘Hells Angels East End'
black t-shirt bearing two death heads and the words ‘Hells Angels First Anniversary.

Seriously..
