Hells Angels are moving into my area for the first time. I have a generally negative view of them, but have some friends who feel otherwise. I would love to hear your experiences related to the Angels specifically, but "1%" clubs as well.

I'm in the UK and Imo they're not good people. I know several tattooists who have been threatened/had their place trashed by them when they've opened a shop in my city.

I also went to a Hells Angels bar once when a music event was being hosted there and they were awful people. Charged more for drinks if they didn't like the look of someone, one guy threatened me because a glass fell on the floor and smashed (it was nowhere near me) and made me clean it up. I'm a small woman, I was scared, so I did it and left ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
