Hell's Angels Club Pride- Now More than Ever!
Ok, this investigation with the Hell's Angels is getting way out of hand. Last week a car with a loud speaker announcing if anyone in the neighborhood has seen anything to come forth to the NYPD.
Listen, I am a neighbor of the big red machine and these guys are great neighbors!
I don't belive for one minute that they had anything to do with the beating of Roberta Shalady.
I still feel as I did when I moved in to the neighborhood in 1994 when the NY Times asked me to quote on the 1994 Clubhouse verdict
I do not feel intimidated by the Hell's Angels- they have been guardians of this street since I have lived here AND I AM A WOMAN!
There is alot of traffic on 3rd street, pedestrian and vehicle- the hell's angels literally keep the peace in an orderly way, like neighbors, I do I think that anyone who tries to start anything with them is just stupid- and believe me I have seen people start shit with them and get at the very least a verbal assault.
I do not know anything about the events surrounding Roberta Shalady's attack, but I do find it hard to believe that she was thrown out on the street in front of the clubhouse by hell's angels inside the clubhouse. It's not easy to obtain entrance inside the clubhouse. To me, that's the part of the story against the Hell's Angels makes the least bit of sense.
I hope this gets solved soon, so the neighborhood can rest.

I love your new site and I love that you said this out loud. The Hell's Angels always get a bad rap. (Mostly because of what I perceive as a post-WWII anti-independent male living societal construct. Anyway...)
Keep us updated here. This is important perspective you have.
Thanks Jeff.
You're completely right, they get tagged with a "bad jacket" as a club of outlaws, it's hard for some people to see them as anything more than a gang. It's great that Kuby is their attorney. They are standing up to the NYPD system with an individual lawsuit for wrongful arrest and standing tall for civil liberties.
I respect these guys and I am not afraid to say so.
At least we get to say "Shu-LADY" a lot. I think that's the ONLY positive aspect of this whole thing.
