We loaded up our two small kids and rode off to a State park. When we arrived, the first thing we noticed was what looked like a gypsy camp on one side and families on the other side of the campground - all on motorcycles. As dusk fell, the activities at the "gypsy camp" took a decided turn for the worse. I won't go into much detail save for the drunken idiots doing doughnuts on the dirt road about 50 feet from where our kids were. We packed up and left.
I've ridden for years. I attended the ROT rally some years ago, it got pretty wild after dusk. The behavior was well tolerated by law enforcement as long as it stayed within the perimeter.. It's not a place where I'd take the kids after dusk, but it was more of a fairly wild party than a giant gathering of organized crime... If people of similar interests want to get a little wild, that's OK with me as long as they're doing it in the appropriate venue..... A state park isn't the appropriate venue.
Nor is a bar in the middle of a shopping plaza in broad daylight. If they'd have had their little conclave in private, nobody would have given a rats behind if they decided to go at it and everybody would have gone home. Instead, they're sitting in cells while the sympathizers blather on about what great people they are.

I'm not hearing or seeing anything about OC on this story from Fox, abc or nbc local stations here.

This is a squabble between 2 or more 1% bike clubs. Most of those involved would not be eligible for a CHL
Go check out Fox4's Facebook page. Full of nuggets like "I bet they all had CHL's"
