Quote History Quoted:
What you can see is not the picture. While not privvy to all of the deepest secrets of the investigation, and not speaking out of turn, the Gypsy Jokers are a violent criminal enterprise, and a large number of their members are white supremacists. When almost every member of the club has been convicted of one criminal act or another, it's pretty easy to label them as an outlaw motorcycle gang. There are good, honest people that ride motorcycles, go on rallies, and attend large gatherings of like minded individuals. The OMG's are not among them.
While I doubt that the GJ's orchestrated this shooting, or really had much to do with it, he was a full member, and they are a violent criminal enterprise. So yeah, he was already a criminal, violent, racist piece of trash member of the GJ's before he shot his ex, and I don't expect him to get booted from the club for it.

The media is really playing up the outlaw biker (Gypsy Joker) angle to the story, but it reads like a thousand other bitter divorce/child custody cases in the news today. As far as I can see the club had nothing to do with this, just some violent motherfucker with a beef with his ex that just happened to be a member of the club.

The GJ's and white supremacists aspects are a red herring. They are included in the story simply as a shock factor, as if somebody popping their old lady in front of the kid wasn't enough. It sells advertising space, commercials and helps when budgets get discussed.
The really interesting story is the one that includes the missing young woman that was just located.
