Regardless of their Chapter locations,the HA,as well as all of the other major 1%er Clubs are not and have never been anything but organized criminal gangs. Despite all of the bullsh*t toy runs and charity events,the main activities are dope,prostitution,illegal guns,bike theft,extortion,enforcers-for-hire,gambling,etc. Having said that,it is true that some individual members hold down regular jobs,and own legit businesses,but Clubs don't engage in extreme violence and murder
(against other Clubs as well as innocent civilians),solely to protect their "love of motorcycles and brotherhood".
