So, Harley has contracts with Criminal Organizations for fleet leasing? That must be great on one hand with maintainence, but hell on the wallet at the end with mileage overage fees because ya know, bikers don't take the shortest route anywhere, even when trying to getaway from robbing a bank.
I own 2 Harleys, so does that mean I'm a criminal in two outlaw clubs? Or does my Suzuki cancel out one Harley?
As for naming stuff, just don't use insensitive, bigoted terms, words or phrases. It really isn't that difficult. Funny how some people can only think backwards when in reality we are taking steps forward, away from the era of bigotry, Colonial Slavery and classism.
Those Iconic foods with 100% racist/bigoted names needed to be changed decades ago, but some people who can't let go of their systemic racist mindsets (what they refer to as heritage but is more appropriately categorized as ”nostalgia") can't fathom that people don't want Colonial/Slave/Bigoted Phrases on their dining room tables. The USA is slowly tackling that problem with brands like Aunt Jamima. Mind you, I don' think anyone should be even consuming crappy corn syrup, just spend the few extra bucks and buy maple syrup.
As for what was on some persons license plate, well it was totally ok to have something that is most likely terrible because they have had it for years, right? The best part is that you didn't type out what it is on the plates because subconsciously you know that it is not appropriate. So, even without knowing what it was, I'm glad he lost his wittle vanity plates that made him feel super cool and superior.
Yeah there are a lot of stupid bigots riding Harleys but I can say for me that I am not one of them. And their effort, be it for profit or social change, is a good sign in my book. They need to make money to stay involved in the dialogue and be a part of the change. And I won’t speak for anyone else, but R-Rated (who is also a Harley rider) seems pretty open minded and welcoming (he can correct me if I am assuming too much). But from some of the comments above it seems bigots ride many brands including Yamahas.
