Compadres CMC

Praise the Lord, our Melbourne chapter has officially launched so if you are down that way and are looking to become more active for our Lord, then contact the guys directly from the Contact Details page.

Blessings to you all.

Thanks to Dylan for spending his time taking photo’s instead of just admiring the machinery that was on show. The pictures start from the end of page two of the gallery and onwards.

Spartacus attended and ‘praise the Lord’ it all went well.
We have already stated that we shall support the 1%er’s in their actions against these draconion laws as they will affect the likes of all of us, regardless of what politicians say – and they know it.
We are not supporting any one individual club, we are supporting those individuals rights to speak to and associate with whomever they wish.

 

The next time there’s a rally on in your state, get out and support it!

Remember:
“A patch does not a criminal make, and not all criminals wear a patch!”

If anyone approaches you and claims to be a member of the Compadres CMC, ask to see his membership card. If he can’t produce it or comes up with a lame excuse for not having it, then take it as he IS NOT a member of the Compadres CMC.

Each member has been issued a dated (inc current year) card and they have to carry it on them at all times. Essentially it’s proof of who they are and it carries the club phone number in case they’re involved in an accident or something similar.

Just remember that just because someone says they’re someone, does not always make it true.

Article from the Courier Mail

QUEENSLAND bikies have called a truce to discuss action over the State Government’s plan to strip them of their prized club colours and insignias.

The Government is looking at a bold move adopted by US authorities, who have sought a court injunction under forfeiture laws to seize the trademark on the name of the Mongols bikie gang.  If successful, US police would have the power to demand Mongol members remove their club patch or “colours”, which bear the gang insignia – the most prized possession in the bikie culture.

Several Australian-based bikie gangs, including the Hells Angels, have a trademark over their name. Police Minister Judy Spence said she would ask the state’s police bikie Task Force Hydra to consider the move. It comes as the State Government is looking at introducing tough laws against outlaw motorcycle gangs that have been implemented in South Australia and Western Australia, where it is illegal for gang members to associate.

The Australian Crime Commission has deemed bikie gangs to be a significant criminal threat nationwide. The Sunday Mail also can reveal that 10 of the 14 resident bikie gangs in Queensland called a truce to meet at a secret location on Brisbane’s southside to discuss the proposed anti-bikie laws. Gangs sent two to three representatives to a suburban Brisbane coffee shop two weeks ago to the meeting organised by the Hells Angels.

Members attended unarmed, not wearing club colours, and were not allowed to bring mobile phones. They told The Sunday Mail that if the Government moved to ban the wearing of colours or introduced laws similar to SA or WA, the gangs would take legal action.

“If there are no colours, how dangerous do you think that will be for police and the public, not being to able identify us?” he said.  “No colours will break down barriers between us and we will work together. That means there will be more drug deals and more murders,” another bikie warned.

SA Premier Mike Rann has called for other states and territories to adopt the groundbreaking laws to prevent outlaw gang members fleeing to other states. Under the legislation, the SA Attorney-General can declare a criminal bikie gang an outlaw organisation and confiscate their assets, including their motorcycles.
This week the Parliamentary Joint Committee on the Australian Crime Commission will hold hearings in Brisbane for their inquiry into legislative arrangements to outlaw serious and organised crime groups.

And if the outlaw clubs do decide on legal action, it is in our (CMC’s and the general biking populace) interest to support them in their efforts to stop laws that see an individual’s rights removed just because he chooses to live his life (legally) the way he wants, not the way the government wants him/them to.

It’s not only bikies, it’s car club’s, football supporters, religious organisations – don’t laugh, the time will come when a car club for example begins to get a touch rowdy and everyone wearing a patch/badge indicating membership of said car club will find themselves up before a judge. Just remember “not everyone is a criminal, and just because you wear a patch does not a criminal make.”

This is madness.

If an “outlaw bikie” comes to me and asks me about Jesus then I shall tell him. If I talk to him on more than six occasions then I can expect to be gaoled and if that’s the case, then so be it.
No government shall stop me if I choose to share the word of the Lord with whom ever I choose, whether they be Joe Average or a 1%’er. Mr & Mr’s Joe Average biker don’t go to the gaol’s, Mr & Mr’s Joe Average don’t attend 1%’er meetings or offer up their services when a 1%’er is injured or killed on the roads, roads that the governments are supposed to be maintaining – what a farce that is.

If the general populace took the time to talk to 1%’er’s they’d see that not all are the “crazed drug dealing killers” as the media is apt to portray them. Yes there is a minor criminal element but in saying that, there is a minor criminal element in football supporters, car enthusiast’s, in fact pretty much any organisation that gathers for a common interest.

As I’ve already stated, I shall not stop talking to 1%’er’s just because the government tell’s me to – I have chosen to spread the word of our Lord in the way “I” feel comfortable, as a leather-clad, patch wearing biker.
