  • The Tools, Tactics, and Mentality of Outlaw Biker Wars
    Am J Crim Just (2011) 36:216–230 DOI 10.1007/s12103-011-9107-5 The Tools, Tactics, and Mentality of Outlaw Biker Wars James F. Quinn & Craig J. Forsyth Received: 7 September 2010 /Accepted: 15 March 2011 / Published online: 19 April 2011 # Southern Criminal Justice Association 2011 Abstract Warfare among rival outlaw motorcycle clubs has been and remains a critical dynamic in the subculture. This paper examines the role of war mentality in the biker subculture and how it has changed overtime. Specific exemplary and noteworthy events are discussed to illustrate critical ideas. Also examined are the changing tactics, defenses, and tools used in these conflict and how the mentality of the outlaw biker club has contributed to the evolution of warfare from impulsive, self-gratifying mayhem to more calculating symbolic and instrumental acts. Keywords Motorcycle clubs . One Percenter . Criminal behavior . Deviant behavior . Violence . Outlaw . Gangs . War . Crime/criminology . Violence . Social Organization . Organizational change . Subculture/counterculture Introduction This paper examines the historical warfare, which continues to evolve, among rival outlaw biker clubs and the role of war mentality in this one percenter subculture. These clubs consist of men who cannot or will not fit in to mainstream society, are alienated enough to exalt in their outlaw status and fearless enough to defend that status against all challenges (Quinn, 1987; Quinn & Forsyth, 2007, 2009). The subculture consists of a plethora of clubs with local, regional, national and international status but is dominated by the so-called “Big Four” clubs—the Hells’ Angels, Outlaws, Bandidos and Pagans. The “Big Four” term dates to the early 1970s when these clubs were the most powerful groups in the subculture.
