From: drmmfam on 15 Apr 2007 10:59 Are the Hells Angels a cult? According to a PhD scholar Michael Langone, cults, "dictate sometimes in great detail how members should think, act, and feel ... claim a special, exalted status" http://www.csj.org/infoserv_articles/langone_michael_cultsqa.htm Furthermore, the highly politically Hells Angels Toronto website, realdealnews.com, illustrates another cultic attribute, "Pursuit of political goals while operating under the rubric of a nonpolitical, charitable, or religious organization" Numerous references by the Hells Angels to the occult, such as satanic logos (the "666" and death heads), and their seeming representation to the public as a potentially violent organization, agree with Langone's definition of cult status. See a neighbour's impression, quoted on the realdealnews.com, that, "[the Hells Angels] are like a watchdog for the area. They have (security) cameras and they keep an eye on people coming and going" http://www.redwhiteclothing.ca/club/page101.html For further information, see http://www.torontofokus.com/

Kinda sounds like the republican party, the democratic party, gov't in general, the cops and society in general! Is it finally time to tune in, turn on and drop out, again? JS
