Actually, I'd be rather interested in hearing why people think bikers are like pyrates.
Sure would help me understand what yall think pyrates are!
Is it just that it's easy to group all "outlaws" into one homogeneous mass?
I guess for myself I thought that common elements between the two (pirates and outlaw bikers) included a break with tradition and a rebellious nature, the desire to profit from crime (pirates took more than just coin from victims: food, drink, garments, tools, weapons, etc), a nomadic lifestyle, violence (or the threat of violence), symbols (skulls, bones, images of devil, death), dependance upon a mode of transportation(ships/ Bikes), and a certain bravado.
Hey, I could be wrong. I've never been a Biker. I don't have the insight that some of you do.
