Commentary on 'Against the Wind'
By 'Redneck' Steve

From a letter to Bandit Dated Wed, 18 Oct 2000

Hey Bandit,

Still love the website Bro. Keep up the good (great) work. Got a quick question about the story on Jim Hood. Truth or fantasy? You write very creatively, but I'm pretty sure this one's for real.

I just moved out of Col. Springs and know all about Ft Carson, Pueblo, Manitou Springs and the local area. Naming all of these locations and with your pictures, I'm assuming (sadly) that your story is true. What's scary, is it's so easy to believe. I watched as the ATF, FBI and those other local assholes busted the "Sons" and numerous other affiliated bikers over a buncha' bullshit this past year.

They arrested something like 27 bikers and let all but 3 or so go after being shown that their reasons were bullshit. Most of the bikes confiscated in the raids were vandalized by the f'kn cops.

Sorry to hear about Jim Hood. Yeah, somewhere on paper it says that what he did was illegal and wrong. If ya ask me, he was just a guy getting ahead and not hurting anybody. It's hard to understand society's vendetta against us and our lifestyle. But I say "Fuck 'em". Ride hard, ride fast, and live free!!!!

Redneck
