- in this episode I talk about the history behind the ss bolts in the motorcycle world... I explain the history of why they are not racist in the mc lifestyle. today's society is too weak when it comes to symbols, they have made everything a racist symbol. time for some real history in the mc culture.
please like share and comment. make sure you subscribe.
Yes. I'm Jewish. My family, grandfather, grandmother, and father ran and hid it from the Nazis. I'm not offended.
I'm a historian by hobby. And I enjoy learning something new. And I just want to say thank you for the history lesson.
Great words, thank you. Much respect.
@@dannydlowbikertv. Thank you, and you're welcome sir. And much respect to you too sir. And A Happy Easter to you and your family.
I am so glad you explained this. People talk who don’t know what they are talking about. Another thing Leo and the government try’s to expose this in the most discriminatory way, so the public believes it. Once again I am so glad you explained it so well. As a former of a 1%er club ( same club that you belonged to)this was taught to me from the get go! Right on brother MLL&R PS when you see the old man from the west side give him my L&R
Right on. Lol I wasn't in that club though, but I definitely know the old man your speaking of. Nothing but respect for that man. Much respect for west side.
Keep on keeping it real. As a vet we are the only ones that understands other vets and that's how it is in the biker community. I'm not in an mc but am a member of an association of vets.
Thank you for your service. And I get it from a small level. It's like 1%ers, or even street dudes. It's like that with guys who went to prison too. If you have gone through it, you'll never understand me. Much respect 💯
Nice copium mate.... Fact of the matter is that you have clubs, especially THE CLUB, has a "white only" policy. I've met a few, I've known a few and it boils down to the same thing... Despite the excuses you care more about race than the club itself.
...And this is me observing from the outside because from what I've heard? Man... Lie down. Take the L. It is what it is and it's fine. You have the right to believe what you believe. Just don't make excuses for it.
Been there, it ain't pretty.
You'll still find a huge amount of vets in mcs. A lot of WWII vets started riding for the freedom.
If you fail to learn from history, you're doomed to repeat it. D, thanks for being 100! Much respect.
Yes. Very true. Much respect 💯
"Generations who have not experienced war, know not to fear it." I have also thought that the shit on the streets, especially here where I live, Is nothing compared to what these guys went through. Great video! Greetings from Finland!
It's so true. We think things get crazy here. But watching that beginning in my video man that's crazy.
@Valtteri Kivi I just recently read about how you guys in Finland saw off the Russians in WWII. Outstanding! 💯
Another point is one should never wear military bling they did not EARN! It's one thing for those returning WWII vets to wear the spoils they took from enemy killed in combat. It's another for those who did not serve or earn them to wear them for shock value. I'm a Vet too, and I saw a lot of American Legion riders who were not Vets, but the sons of Vets wearing their fathers or other relatives military decorations. They say they wear it in honor or tribute to that person. I say BULLSHIT! They wear it like a chip on their shoulder, trying to fit in with real Vets. To me, it's no different than buying a fake set of club colors on Ebay.
Keep on teaching that True History 💯. That's all we have left is word of mouth to teach the younger generations and even some of our generation. Nobody / nowhere else will teach them facts anymore! Much Love and Respect
Much respect 💯
Ok well now it makes sense. A lot of people just assume because they see something, it means what it meant at a different time. Just glad we got dudes like you and Sose that explains shit like this. Much love.
For sure. Much respect 💯 thank you
Most people don't realize that the swastika along with other symbols are very old and stood for many things. The swastika was a symbol that was used the same way people now use the cross..
Good explanation but I think there may be a bit more to it than that. Yes, in WW2 there were a lot of so-called trophies taken from Nazi and german regular soldiers. And although we fought hard and did our duty, there were a great number of American soldiers that believed in some of the basic Nazi ideology as far as white superiority. Question... Do you know of any MC that uses the swastika or the Schutzstaffel symbol that has or allows non-white members (meaning black or Puerto Rican). If there are, I will gladly and fully concede the point.
If you watched the whole video you couod answer your own question. 😏
Yep but it's in NZ. All rivals of Black Power MC are obsessed with Nazi Symbology and these clubs are majority non white. It's about dissing Black Power MC (which was founded by a white guy) than serious white supremacy.
Are you confused? Good
You know what SS bolts don't fly with me my mom and dad was in the concentration camps I am of Ukrainian and polish descent until you know what really happens to someone that seen it all we don't fly SS bolts just saying man 👍
YOU don't. Here in the states WE DO. But I definitely understand your reasons.
@@dannydlowbikertv No disrespect but not all bikers in the states do. Some actual think it’s stolen valor to wear those type of patches or symbols without taking them from nazis like the WWII soldiers did. Again no disrespect just offering a different perspective. Thank you for the content
@@bikernewsworld good thing I didn't say ALL bikers then huh. Lol
@@dannydlowbikertv You’re right. Again just wanted to offer a different perspective but your opinions and traditions of the culture are still respected over here. Thank you again for the content.
The problem is cultural divides and so. US, did not experience the same levels of destruction and Trauma Europe did. Also the death camps etc. No American cities where raised to ground by men wearing those bolts.
And the symbols infamy is widely known and automatically known for that not your meanings. Add Neo Nazi etc problems... thry have very dark meaning for Europeens etc.
The meaning may make sense, to you, more just people need to be smart, if you traveled to Germanny you'd find your cut seized and destroyed.
Like anything. Check your facts before you travel etc
As you said, same words have diffrebt rules based on the area. Just gotta know what you can get away with and what's best left at home.
Much love and respect homie. I rock a 2013 road glide custom. Im a combat vet and your right about the bolts. Thanks for educating everyone
Thank you for your service. Much respect 💯
Thank you for serving.
Godspeed and Blessings.

DannyD, Thank you for History lesson i just came across your channel. My Father was ww2 combat veteran, spent his time in the hot spots in the south Pacific. He didn't talk about it much, but the thing's he talked about im Greatfull for.We have no idea what they went thru for us.God Bless and Thank You to our Veterans and for their Service , My bike 87 FXR lowrider ,Great Channel, GREETINGS from Boston ma.
Great words. Much respect, and thank you. Nice bike
Fascinating development of in group out group development. They know these symbols scare out the out group, putting you further in the in group. Sociology 101
Good video. Finally someone who can explain to the citizens where the bolts originated and how they are now earned. Keep up the good work.
Thank you.
Great video! The parts of our culture the straights and squares can't or won't understand are the world we live in....my 2nd father and biker-mentor (a real 1% greybeard) clued me in that the Nazi pins and patches were a way to keep the curious and stupid away. I understood then what these emblems and designs represent, and like you say...it ain't what they think. Thanks Danny Kraut
Yessir. More facts. Much respect
Bro just seen this I really like your show and cause of the tell it like it is and the history, You are doing great = Thanks from Greybeard
Appreciate you. Thanks.
Pausing at 2:45 for a moment of silence to remember, honor and respect our WWII vets, God bless their souls…
Much respect for that.
Pop always wore a ring made with the ruby from a German officers hat insignia. He kept his swastika and SS patches in a box with his medals. Too many people don't understand this shit. Great video, great topic. 💯 🇺🇸
That's pretty cool. Much respect to him.
GREAT POST.. explanation...
Thanks for posting 📮 this great video 📹 love the work u do and the Information u bring and give real knowledge......u bring the truth to the Masses love it.....and great MC U ARE IN ‼️‼️
Greetings, I left you a msg on one of your posts about a 1%er by the name of Tacoma Twitch. You said something to the effect that you heard, thought, or know he's a police officer. I have a few hooks, you could sort of say, im connected in this world, with various individuals and organizations. I did some research and spoke to people in the know, on who is affiliated with the long arm of the law. I checked and double checked the info I received. It is clear to me that that individual IS NOT a member or is any way NOT affiliated with any local, state, or federal, including on the government level any law enforcement agencies. This person is not a cop. FYI.
That's cool. But HE said he was, even in his book. Lol but on a serious note. I don't care. Non of my business, and I definitely ain't interested in any of it. Not my monkey, not my problem. Thanks.
The people that get offended by bolts, are the same people that voted for Biden.
🤣
If Trump had Bolts on him, I’d cut them off and wear them myself but after I scalp him first
Don't let politics fool you. Don't matter who you vote for. They don't know or care for you
@@jaywilliams1441 politics don't fool me, I don't want any politician to "know or care" for me.... its a fact that the left is more intrusive to personal rights than anyone on the right.
@@jaywilliams1441 thing is trumps a business man not politician.....
Enjoyed your lighting bolt video. Like to hear more info on that. Keep up the good work. Peace out
Thank you. Much respect.
Morning Big D Had to watch again perfectly said ML&R ⚡️⚡️☠️⚒️☠️P
Thank you. Good morning
Sorry, but you said: "that trophy was ALWAYS the Swastika off of the arm or the bolts patch". The swastika arm band was part of the SS dress uniform and so far as the Waffen SS goes they only made up about 5% of the German army. Yes, some American soldiers did take trophies/souvenirs but it wasn't an accurate way to keep body count. In that type of massive ground warfare you don't have time to stop and take trophies in the middle of an ongoing firefight and often it's difficult know who was killed by who. More often than not souvenirs were taken after a prolonged battle concluded.
Aside from that great video and I can see the main point.
P.S. not trolling, no disrespect intended.
Ok. Thanks.
Thanks for making this video, I get tired explaining my SS bolts tattoo. From a 1 to 1. MHLR
Much respect 💯
Definitely ⚡️⚡️ML&R ☠️⚒️☠️P
From an outsider perspective. I completely get the old school dudes that started it. Wearing it as a trophy but in today why still incorporate it. If you weren't in the war and took a patch yourself. I ride and go to events and met some awesome people that wear it but always have talked to some people in clubs that are poc accept it but still it makes them feel a type of way. (Disregard the woke sjw youth about it) and coming from a kid that was in the punk hxc scene and the traditional skinhead rude boy scene. We've gotten into tons of scuffles with white power groups coming into the scene (had dudes in mcs along side us that wear it fighting as well that didn't want nazis in the scene well before i started riding or getting into the bike scene) just always been curious if they don't condone the behavior of people that wear it for its meaning but will wear it. Love the content and the discussion ML&R 🤙🤙
Keeeping it 💯!!!! Great content,great video D!!!!!! ⚡️ ⚡️ RESPECT!!!
Respect
I didn’t watch the video but those stripes go back to beginning of writing! Those are sacred ruins used by my people!! They are a sacred geometry! A old language of power
Good explanation of mc life, protocol, etc. shock value for the citizens, stay away from me. Unless you’re like me.
Awsome history thanks from a disabled vet.
Thank you for your service dirtydyna much respect 💯
DLow In this video at the beginning You said it all in the first 5 minutes . As someone who started on the street in Philly , then the MC world after My U.S.Army Ranger stint , It hits heart . MY HEART . I did my time in Your State on the street with a club . You hit home Bro .
Respect.
Great information. Independent here 2016 Victory Cross Country 8-Ball. ML&R
Good story but the US 🇺🇸 was not involved with WW11 until Dec 7th 1941
Thank you for bringing the real history. It is appreciated more than you know!! Many people just dont get it and never will, but for those of us that do......thank you, good stuff man!! #SYLBP
Right on, agreed. Much respect
Already subscribed with thumbs up. Respect to you for keeping it real. Live in uk and ride a zr750 kawasaki. Respect from me.
Appreciate it. Much respect
regardless of it's origin within the MC world, those outsiders who are looking at you, find the SS offensive. Why? because it also represents a cadre of NAZIs that were instrumental in the murder of some 6 million. SS means something different for MCs than the polar opposite for those without the dark history of the death trophies that brought them home.
Too each their own. I find it offensive that people are offended over every thing. 💯
Hay man. I get it. Personally I can not join any club. Because of a promise I had made to my brother. I've been around bikers since I was a kid. I ride a 88 glide today it's a road king. Well knowing the world of a old school biker. The politics of some clubs and some other shit. I know to many people growing up. I have or had friends in different clubs. So I ride and I've been in different club houses while church was going on from age 9. I really enjoyed the party's are so wild. Oh well peace ✌️ out
I can respect that.
ITS FRIDGE 33 CARNALES MC VP.
Hey I see they took your page down wtf? Damn haters. Are you gonna start a new page? Hopefully....ML&R brother God bless Happy Easter weekend
What's good homie. Yeah tiktok banned me, I started a new one but honestly, it isn't worth my time with all the haters on that platform. I might mess around again on there but doubt it bro. Stay real homie and ride safe. Much respect to you and your brothers.
Great messaging to those that don’t get the meanings behind some of patches and what they represent
Appreciate it
My grandfather was in WW2 he was a corporal in the marine corps he fought against the Japanese. 🇺🇲🦅🇺🇲
I’m a Afghanistan combat vet but he’s the REAL HERO if there was ever one that was hell on earth for those boys
When you end up in a war zone and see and do shit to your fellow man because he wants to do you in, this changes you forever. Citizens don't get it, and they shouldn't. White black yellow brown in war your all bros. with one goal, that we all go back to the world. War is the school of brotherhood and survival. Clubs offer the same environment. Thanks Danny for your service, you don't have to spend your time on earth educating the masses. Pleiku RVN 1971
I wasn't in the service but I agree. Respect.
I like and watch your videos every day support and respect
It’s one thing to not care what others think but at the end of the day the biker world is supposed to be about respect and to wear a patch or symbol that offends an entire race or an entire religion is still disrespectful
What if the patch of your club offends people? Should and would you give it up? And what about Native American use of swastikas that goes back 100s of years? Should we remove it from all museums and all books? Should we remove everything because it offends someone? Sounds pretty restrictive and authoritarian to me.
@@mattgoodmangoodmanlawnmowi2454 I see your point. However there are many clubs that have changed or altered there patches for many different reasons. Even the big 4 have all changed or altered some of there patches for different reasons. Doing it to show respect to people sounds like a good reason to do so. As far as Native Americans using swastikas it had a different meaning back then but after WWII many tribes that used those symbols in the past made a mutual agreement to stop using them out of respect which is still in place for the most part to this day but regardless of all that the worlds history should still never be removed from books or museums anywhere
@@bikernewsworld I’m not an expert but I’m unaware of changes in the dominant patches. My first awareness goes back to seeing an early magazine with th HAs on the cover. I am currently living in predominantly 16 territory though there are some who do dispute that. And as I recall their patch is unchanged for decades. Never lived in AOA or Bandido territory so you May be right there. But from what I have seen I don’t see either of.those two clubs worrying about what cagers think of them. YMMV.
@@mattgoodmangoodmanlawnmowi2454 There are different versions of the patches worn by them and many other clubs on Google images and other sites like Pinterest etc. Didn’t 16 add an “East Coast” bottom rocker in recent years? If so would that qualify as an alteration?
@@bikernewsworld The Ps May have added the bottom rocker recently not sure.
I
It would qualify as a recent change but not in response to others being offended so they changed.
I don’t spend time ogling patches but now you have me curious. Guess I’ll have to take a closer look I do know the bottom rocker originally wasn’t used. If I had to guess it would have been in the 90s c
Curiosity killed the cat. Satisfaction brought it back to life.
To be honest dude the WW2 bad guys made the coolest logos. Like the Tottenkopf skull and the SS bolt.
And the same reason they wore them, is the same reason bikers wear them now. Intimidation, warns off people, shows you stand for something.
I don't mess with MC's, but respect their culture. But SS patches are cringe as hell. Rocking a symbol of the enemy who was trying to put us under, is just a no no. It may have been a trophy for those who fought and killed in WW2, but folks who didn't shouldn't be holding it. You guys do you, but i'm staying the hell away from you if you're rockin that shit.
Judging by the little teen talk "cringe " I don't expect you to understand anything about the old school ways. And truth be told, but if someone is rocking them, most likely THEY don't want anything to do with YOU. Lol just being honest. But to each their own. Personally judging people is "cringe" to me. Lol
@@dannydlowbikertv Cringe is just modern internet slang. Slang doesn't have an age bracket. And exactly. They've indicated their position and decided to rock a controversial symbol. To either offend or praise. How can I judge someone who's already told me "Hey, i'm wearing this for a reason, don't approach me" ? Just like someone wearing a badge, tells me they're some sort of official.
If you're wearing MC stuff and i'm digging your bike, I may approach you to ask about it or comment on it. But if you're wearing MC stuff and I see SS bolts, i'm just gonna keep walking. It's all good. Dug the video.
@@therealkzero sorry homie I think following internet slang is whack af. To be honest tho, if you know about mc stuff, (after watching my video you should understand what it means now) you should be scared to walk up and say sup, nice bike. He's not gonna act one way or another with you. But. If you think everyone is racist for a patch of some sort, then your just part of a growing problem in this world. I am native. I don't think everyone with an American flag is against me. Feel me?
@@therealkzero and thank you. I appreciate you watching. Nothing but respect for your opinions. I'm good with it. 💯
@@dannydlowbikertv You the man Danny! Ride safe!
Great vid D I had a freind in middleschool his grandfather had a German luger bring back we would hold and dry fire the thing to death 😆 sorry bro havent been commenting I've been slammed at work latley🥵 but I'm still watching #keep it 💯😈🤘
Thats cool. Love that old stuff. All good, get that money. Much respect 💯
I hear ya on recording. I was going to get a show up before the weekend and then the weekend hit. Wasn't going to do a show on Memorial day weekend and I was busy.aswell lol. Now I have a bit of time to get one up. BYW I ride a Kawasaki Vulcan Vaquero and I'm from MN. Keep being you and be safe.
Appreciate you
next video: are rainbow in mc gay 🌈
You should do one.
@@dannydlowbikertv Nobody I have seen on TH-cam or even in magazines has ever talked about or interviewed anyone from a gay club. There is one gay club that I think started in the 1950s in California that are still around called Satyrs Motorcycle Club of Los Angeles.
One old biker movie called The Pink Angels is a funny movie to watch except the ending of the movie is horrible. The motorcycle enthusiast community is so huge with people of all walks of life enjoying it is one of the reasons why I enjoy it.
I sat down and talked to old old white biker guys and asked them about all the Nazi shit on vests and bikes.. etc. He said in the 60's it was not about being a neo-nazi or hating blacks specifically. He said they wore it to intimidate and scare other white people. It was a symbol of rebellion, being an outsider, bikers back in the 60's had a bad reputation and in some cases discriminated by businesses and hotels. Now, I've also spoken to younger white 1% club guys and they would admit the club is ethno-centric and homogeneous (white only) but not anti-black. They'll also admit, yeah 'we do have some racist guys in the club', but our club is not racist. So Nazi symbols on white bikers will not always 100% signify a white supremist. It may just represent outlaw culture.
Tell me you didn't watch my full video without telling me. 🤣🤣🤣🤦♂️
But, your not wrong here man. 💯
The meaning pertains to the confederate flag.
Well done, as always, Best Video Topics on TH-cam, thanks
Thank you. Much respect
I really appreciate the info, of course I didn't know the history and man I'll think so much differently now. Thanks for the lesson!!
Thank you. Respect 💯
I'm not part of an mc but yet I will fight to the death for anyone's child if needed . I'm canadian lol
I think that's all of us bikers.
The Sig rune signifies victory.
Another great video Danny D Low!
Thank you.
Serious question…do you think anyone can rock bolts or do you have to be in a club ?
Personally.... why would you want to wear them if your not in a club? I don't play the wanna be bs. But, wear what you want. Just stand on it when confronted. 🤷♂️
@@dannydlowbikertv I do wear the bolts . And I’m not in a club . same exact reason I ride a Harley but I’m not in a club. It’s just what I enjoy
And for extreme irony; the rock group Kiss got in some hot water when trying to tour in Germany, had to modify the bolts to reversed Z's. And for crazier; Gene Simmons' mother was a Hungarian Jewish concentration survivor
Furthermore, in 1939 the Baseball Hall of Fame was created but the first black or brown person inducted was in 1962. Do you think black guys learned how to play baseball in the 60’s? Roberto Clemente was inducted in 1972, what there wasn’t a Latin pitcher, shortstop, or home run hitter extraordinaire till the 70’s?
It is not possible to pick and choose the history that supports one’s ideology.
History is all history or it’s propaganda.
The slaves that taught the British in the American Revolution.
The escaped slaves called, “Royal Marines” who burned the White House, and where given Trinidad by the British who honored their agreement to set the slaves free.
The escaped slaves who fought heroically for the current US government during the Civil War.
The Harlem Hell Fighters of WWI
The Tuskegee Airmen who successfully never lost a bomber to German fighters in WWII.
The war fighters like my Dad who fought in the Korean War but had to deal with a Master Sargent who routinely played Russian Roulette with his head in the barracks. A PTSD he took to his grave.
My cousin the Green Beret, my Uncle the Army Commander who served in Vietnam.
All have very similar experiences of racism by the very people the gave liberty to with their lives.
History is all history or it’s propaganda.
OBTW, with respect here is some “factual history of our world today” all white MC’s observed Jim Crow during WWI, WWII, Korean War, and Vietnam War. That is why we still have black MC’s in 2023. Because those faithful red blooded men and women of honor were only accepted if they had a curtain skin complexion, the less melanin, the better.
Things are much different today but the historical record is important to keep whole.

Wonderful D Day Tribute 🇺🇲🇺🇲

Thank you. 💯
Respect to your version of WWII. My version begins and ends with Jim Crow. A segregated US society, Segregated US Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard.
General Patton famously chose the segregated mechanized battalion 761 to lead him into Germany. These same all black men were the first to liberate the Jews from consentration camps. One Jewish woman famously said, “I looked up and saw a black God. I know he was God because he picked me up and lifted me from hell.”
I don’t this is known by many here. I only learned of the 761 “Original Black Panthers” after the Medal of Honor was presented to one of the 761 living sister because President Clinton believed the forgotten and unrecognized heroism of Black serviceman in all wars is a travesty to there families, to you, and me.
One can not change the meaning of something arbitrarily, there most be consensus. All neoNazi groups in the US can be identified by symbols like SS. That is why I have a visceral core hatred when I see it. To me it’s like the “N” word for Jews.
When I’m not around, my son’s call each other N!gga and sing it in their music. They know I have looked down a double barrel shotgun, and other weapons brandished by white men using N!gg3r to address me. I raised my sons with the belief that you can’t change the meaning and intent of a word without consensus.
I respectfully and vehemently disagree.

Hey D solid 100% on the bolts. But as far as the Swastika, with in a week after Patching out, I had a Swastika on my Cut. And It was on there to say “I don’t give a f-k” It also was a memorial to the old timer Brother, that set me on my path to earn my place in our world. He died, along with his ol Lady in a wreck while I was gone in the Navy, and his last version of his badass chopper was desert camo w/A black swastika on the tank. Most of us, including me, were racist as F-k I’ll tell the story of the “Joint Game”
We played while partying with the “HellsLovers or “Sons of Darkness”
It’s funny as f-k. But along with a few black shirts w/saying “White Power”
Or a silhouette of Hitler printed on them,I also was gifted a “Blood Drop”
Patch from the Knights of well you know the rest. It was a long time before I woke up, and quit wearing that kinda shit, well that as well as meeting my Stepdaughters black husband. And my 4 grandchildren especially. Man I love them kids.
Anyway Happy Trails you-all. Thanks for giving me the trip down memory lane.

SS death head swasaki or other nazi symbols is uncalled for- just like a non member wearing a club patch. U take a beating it’s on

Or, you can take one when you try. Lol it CAN work both way. No one cares who's offended.
Thank you for explaining this so well. I just stopped buying anything with it on there. Someone made a good point to me- if you wouldn’t rock a rival clubs flash, why rock 3rd Reich flash? Simple answer? Cause the 3rd reich was defeated, and a rival club is guaranteed to TCB. Stay 💯 Danny!
Good show .
awesome

sir ...
Thank you
Another WWII tidbit: our military had motorcycles on the front lines for recognizance and running communications, and were an easy target. So after the war it was considered superstitious bad luck having a green motorcycle. Over time I have see more green paint jobs than in the past.
Yeah that's an old myth that has been talked about forever lol.
A good friend said 'We exude an air of malevolence' whether or not we do it consciously or not.
Comes from WWII souvenir
Well aren't you smart. 🤣🤣🤣
Great video D thank you ✌️
Thanks mac
What I meant to say was the battle flag is a symbol for a lot people as rebellion against the government
I fought in Zabul Province Afghanistan during the deadliest year of the war and same year they got bin Laden we all celebrated when we got the news. I was in a lot of combat and was mortared 5 days a week on our COP I was with 1-24 inf 25ID got wounded , war is hell man people don’t know how much Americans take for granted everyday
I can definitely understand. Thank you, for your service.
Enjoyed your content tonight

My father fought in some heavy battles in WWII. Anzio, Normandy, Battle of the Bulge. Being of Polish/Jewish descent and speaking fluent Polish, he was picked to debrief concentration camp survivors. He did not like anything Nazi! Growing up I was not even allowed to watch Hogan's Heros. If I ever wore a German helmet, he woulda hit me with it!
Pretty awesome father you had. Much respect. Can't even blame him
Thanks for speaking on this !

Good video bro I always wanted to know but I never asked any of my brothers who ride because I just didn’t want to seem like I didn’t know I just always this song since I’ve mostly seen white guys and Hispanics with them that it was some racist shit and no doubt some people do Rock them for some racist shit but it’s good to know the history and knowing is half the battle

Not every German soldier wore SS bolt. Those were reserved for the Gestapo. The elite force. They also wore the totenkauf on their head gear. Swastikas were worn by bikers and clubs in the 50s thru the 70s. When clubs opened chapters in Germany they pulled any Nazi insignias because they were illegal in Germany. Bikers now wear bolts and swastikas to get a rise out of citizens. I could be wrong about the current. I am in my 60s. I still ride and play in the MC world. You did a good job on the history.
Thank you. Appreciate that.
Great video. Great use of stock footage. Great explanation of a mind set that many don’t understand.
Appreciate it
Agreed 👍
Many do not understand so many of the other symbols that are rarely seen anymore that bikers, musicians, artists, poets, gear heads, surfers, and many wore going way back. One example is the Navajo pawn silver on the chain wore by a famous guitarist that people still don't understand. Second example is a founding member of what later became The Grateful Dead who played keywords, harmonica, and vocals he wore the same symbol and he was into the bike scene. Kinda like lightning bolt of thirteen points by another genius whos initials are ASO that I wear most have no idea of the meaning. Also the spiritual to non racist cultural connections even that some of these items had including the lightning bolt sadly most don't know.
@@sswcustomsewing4276 Props to ASO. And to you, for sharing all of that knowledge. I used to be good friends with some people on the East Coast who knew him well from their time in the Bay Area.
Not familiar with the Navajo silver pawn thing. Mind saying a bit more about it?
@@mattgoodmangoodmanlawnmowi2454 Jorma Kaukonen of Jefferson Airplane he caught flack for wearing a Navajo silver pendant on a necklace that represents the whirling log or the wheel of life. This symbol goes back to salt companies to Coca-Cola as a symbol of good luck. Also a symbol in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism.
@@sswcustomsewing4276 Thanks. And
Awesome video
Thank you.
