- Why did we leave “The Organization That Shall Not Be Named?”
We get asked about why we left "The Organization That Shall Not Be Named" a lot. And, as members of this channel I feel like it's ok to share with our Pro Monkey Family a bit more detail about why, after so many years, you would step away from an organization you love so much. So... here it goes... the whole story why we left.

I really appreciate you guys, I was abused as a child and was taken by cyfd here in New Mexico it was a struggle for my little self at the time but I had so much support. Ended up getting adopted and have a great forever family. I totally support BACA for what they do, and everyone else that supports and helps abandoned/abused children.
I’ve always had the greatest respect for you two but have even more now. You’ve dedicated your lives to protect kids. There is nothing more noble.
I admire you both. I belong to an organization that we know have a mission for kids and veterans. We do two charity rides. A year plus multiple fundraisers through out the year for both causes. We have an ex senator ( bill diamond ) in Maine who started up walk a mile in their shoes. And we were the first to get his charity out there. We are doing everything we can to helping the children
Thanks for the update. With a wife in the same field, I can understand this for sure. Thankyou for being transparent
It takes a special person to do what you and her have done I used to work with an organization who helped remove women and children from abusive homes. When we were no longer allowed to protect them or defend ourselves the organization had to shop
Great video. Loved how you highlighted the “right way” to exit an organization. Thanks for all your efforts in supporting children. Well done!
I still kind of understand maybe just cause I can’t figure out what baca is out there???
I guess it’s saving kids that been abused ?
And that’s a good thing and stop people from getting bullied. I just never heard of you before out there.
Thank you for what you did. And your wife for what she does.
As a Clinical Social Worker who works adolescent inpatient (hospital) with mostly suicidal or serious mental health cases, I completely understand the position your wife was in. It is a recipe for major burnout. Hard enough keeping your head screwed on right as it is working that kind of job, without also doing similar on your spare time. Got to take care of yourself first before you try to help anyone else.
You do such important work! Thank you for what you do❤
Much respect to both of you for what you've done. Definitely understand your decision.
From a former bother from Las Vegas, thank you to for helping our heros not to feel afraid in the world in which they live. You both made a huge impact on the kids in your area and will undoubtedly be amazing parents!
I hold the most amount of respect and admiration for everyone that is affiliated with BACA. My daughter had a case, and is still being supported by her BACA folks! I love that they never left her! Thanks to you and the Lady for doing what you do!
I just want to tell you that you inspired my husband to join baca. He's been a part of it for like 6 months now and let's just say it's a great organization. We live in Cleveland Ohio.
❤❤
I'm down in Akron, will have to take a look!
They way you left the org. solidifies who you are in this community. You left with LOYALTY, HONOR, LOVE & RESPECT, and many still speak of you as FAMILY !!! So glad I was able to meet the two of you in Sturgis. Hope to catch you again sometime.
❤
I was a founder/president of a BACA Chapter in a Northern CA County where the services were much needed. We were well on our way to becoming a full charter when an issue arose at a State Conference. Some of the chapters in the larger metropolitan areas decided that retired and or current members of law enforcement should not be members of BACA. These chapters had been attending CofC meetings and began to be influenced by the clubs of CofC. As a retired LEO, this left a bit of a bitter taste. I respectfully left the chapter, along with a number of other members who disagreed with this type of direction for the organization. It is truly an awesome organization. It was just sad that many had lost their way and became a bite too full of themselves. I fully respect your decision and the reasons for that decision...and huge props to Mrs. Monkey for the work she does. I had been assigned to child sexual assault cases during my career... toughest cases to handle for anyone.
Is this normal? Disagreement of allowing retired LEOS or current LEOS to be part of the organization?
I was a VP for a chapter in Florida, we were the second chapter to start in Florida.
After the International meeting (this was about 15-20) years ago. They hated that we had a female chter President and as per BACA rules she was the only member that could be the next State President. National and Chief did not want a female president and did everything to force us out!
The old state president past away and seeing how he was a good friend, I went to the funeral. Something that will always stay with me is the number of people from the mother chapter including the new state president that came up to me and said "you were one of the few that was wanted to keep "!
I will always believe in their mission statement,I just wish that more members remember that they are there for the children and NOT just to have a patch on so you can act like Billy Bad Ass!
If anyone wants to hear the entire story,send me a PM and we can talk. Tugs ex-VP of Centerstate Florida Chapter
God bless Mrs. Monkey for fighting the good fight and helping innocent children.
Thanks for everything both of you did, and continue to do, for the kids!
You bet!
I understand how it can be "so much". I'm the VP of our chapter and a former P - and I'm and investigator with Child Protective Services. My wife works for a juvenile probation office and is our agency liaison. We have to work hard to not burn out! Much love and respect from BACA Shepherd.
Wow! I have been watching you guys for a couple of years and knew that you did things for children but I didn't know to what extent. You 2 are truly an inspiration!
Thank you for what you have done to help the kids!
From one member to a former member, thank you for your time and commitment. Hope you all return someday. Grumpy.
I have lot's of respect for what you have done with BACA. Our local clubs all work together to support each other and all of the needs of the community. Children and their needs are top of the list. If you are ever in Eureka California I would love to meet you in person. Your channel has provided some great information and your causes are close to my heart.
Anyone who prioritizes children have a special place in heaven. In my opinion, children are the most important gem( I didn't want to say "thing") in the world. My wife and I donate to children's causes. When we were members of Ft. HOG, we were invited to Daytona for a party were we donated money to Boggy Creek. On that Sunday we were to go visit the children but I couldn't go. It was too emotional for me as I would have cried the minute I would have seen those precious children. God bless you both.
Very high props to both of you, my mom was a foster parent for over 25 years and as a kid growing up seeing all the abuse and damage these young kids went through made me so angry at the bastards that could do such a thing, it was difficult to deal with, but my mom touched so many lives and was awarded foster parent of the year many years, so thank you to both of you and all that you do.
As a foster parent I am thankful for all of the support we get from many different parties associated with the system. There are some good people in it who have their hearts in the right place. Unfortunately the fields are ripe and the workers seem to be few and most seem maxed to capacity and the need is only growing.
Thank you for what you do ❤
You two are how I found out about the organization and started the mission. Best thing I've ever been apart of, thank you
❤
You left with Honor and dignity, with your head held high. That speaks a lot to your character and how serious you took your commitment. Nothing but respect for you. Keep doing what you're doing.
❤
I somehow thought or knew that or another unsaid organization you both involved in.
Great seeing you at the meet-up in SD.
Impressive!
I have been interested in joining this organization for quite some time. Unfortunately I live right in the middle of two chapters and both are 5 hours in either direction. I have a great deal of respect and appreciation for these people. Cheers bud!
I wanted to ask about this when we talked in Sturgis, but didn't want to pry. I'm glad that you did this video.
The Children deserve nothing less than 100% good for you guys for recognizing that.
My wife & I were foster parents, for children being removed from their homes. Over the years, we had over 12 children stay with us. Thank You both for what you do.
You guys are awesome people. Enjoyed our visit and look forward to visiting again.
Well I knew you guys cared with alll your hearts now I have Huge respect. Being a Nurse I know the pressures and stresses of life I appreciate you both and Thank you for all you do ❤❤❤❤
I admire you both for all you do and continue to do for the kids. You two have very big hearts and the world could use more people like you!
❤
Thank you! Knew Mrs. Monkey was an attorney, but never knew just what she did. God Bless you. Dealing with the worst of the worst of crimes and abuse. I couldn't do it. 37 years in LE, I saw some really bad things like you, and Always really appreciated the folks who came out in the middle of the night, or took in a kid in crisis into their homes. Usually it ended that day with us, while you pick up the pieces and continue throughout the system. Thank you. You went in to a noble cause, and served and went out with dignity and the respect of those around you. Thank you
Thank you for what you do ❤
You guys are amazing. You are fighting the battle on the home front. Thanks for your videos and seeing your beautiful Motorcycles. I hope to be able to see you all at a rally and talk to you all more about this. But that's if I can get time off the army.
I have so much respect for you two. I was an investigator for Child Protective Services for only 1 year. I emotionally could not handle it and it interfered with my ability to perform the job so I left. You are so much stronger and amazing than I could ever be.
It is a touch job for sure. The CPIs see the worst as it’s happening. We’re all in it together in different roles. Much ❤
I don’t think you owe any kind of explanation. However, as a follower of the channel I kind of was wondering. I’m not part of an organization that shall not be named but….I work an a branch of healthcare that I am constantly fighting hospitals, doctors and insurance companies to give and provide the care that people, especially the elderly, can be able to live at home and maintain a quality of life. What I’m talking about is a can of worms that requires so much conversation unless your in my world. The Healthcare system is broken. Anyway, I salute you both for your decision. That took some Avocados, all in or out. I have a funny feeling you two will be back in your organization. I can tell the passion is still there but maybe right now is not the right time. I’m still on fire for my cause because I’m single and have that luxury. I wish there was an organization in my Missouri area that addresses elderly and handicapped persons. I would be on board. God Bless!
Good on ya'll! Integrity shines through this video.
Thank you two for your service. Those kids need people like yourselves !
Proud of you! Many will and should realize Family comes first. Not to say your organisation is not Family you have to put the 3 of you first. I am sure your organisation understands and supports your decision because it is best for both of your Families. You both will always support the organization not to be names because of the Great work they do. I hope your life gets better as time goes on but will always be proud of what you both have accomplished in yoyr past and will continue to do in your future. Good Luck and hope your life continues to be Happy.
God Bless you both , rolled with a nother MC ( Not to Be Named ) Much Respect to Both for your work . Hooe to see you in Daytona
I'm not a "Member" But I can see this video! Thanks for the free memberships guys!!!!
Always wondered what the "OTSNBN" was -- much respect! Appreciate you both sharing. Semper Fi
I want to say Thank you for being in the Origination And caring for the Children you gave comfort to . God will always have your Back Amen.
Bless your hearts. Truly meant. I was for more than fifteen years an "unpaid professional" Search and Rescue dog handler; the full working life of two very awesome dogs. Very few will understand what a blessing and simultaneously how all consuming a service of passion can become, particularly for those that do not take lightly a commitment. Take rest and trust God. He will never waste hearts like yours. :)
You both are such fantastic people. Hope we get to meet in person sometime. There is a season for everything in life. Making time for yourself and those precious years with baby monkey is something you won’t regret. They go by so fast. Much love, honor and respect to you and your family.
You’ve been doing good work, but it’s honorable to put your family first. You only have 18 summers to fill your child with love, and to prepare them to deal with the cruel world. As a dad with grown children, I wish I had more time to guide them, but both my boys turned out to be great man. Thank you both for your work and may God bless you
Much respect to you and Mrs Monkey! Very respectfully, thank you both for all you have done for the organization and more importantly for the children both of you have been involved in helping. Totally understand and agree with you both, it's tough. Again, thanks and much respect!
You both are awesome for doing what you do for kids. I am retired LE 32 years and every one of those cases is tough. I walked from a National Organization myself and did exactly as you. Did not seek re election and ties up all my loose ends before I departed. I miss all my brothers and sisters and some stay in tough but there are always a couple MF’s that cant stay in their Lane. I know dedicate my time to Lawmen’s MC. We raise funds and donate the monies to children’s organizations and veterans. Again thank your wife for what she doe she is a saint.
😊
Thank you for what you do ❤
Thanks very much for the video. I'm going to look into the organisation in the UK. Amazing work. You are amazing people. Thank you
You guys rock and should be so proud of what you have done to help kids in need !! Your channel is the best there is out there..
I commend you both for defending those that can't defend themselves, God bless you.
Y’all are righteous people! Your channel is awesome! Thanks!
I went to a few meetings with the intent of learning about baca and wanting to become a member. What i found was that i really do not have the time to commit to them. I still think they are a wonderful organization and try to support them as much as possible. Thank you both for all you have done and continue to do for, not just kids, but everyone you help. Your channel has helped spread fun, happiness, and kindness to many people across the biker community. Thank you for being kind people. Hope to see you in daytona for bike week.
I very much appreciate this comment my friend. Thank you!
my reason to cut and run. Didn’t have the money/time/ health to commit
My wife and I did the same thing.
❤
The work you both do is nothing short of heroic. Mrs. Monkey is a Saint for what she does everyday. God bless you both and thank you for sharing.
I really appreciate for all you guys did for all those kids for so many years and for all the sacrifices you guys went through. I think you and your wife should make a podcast about it to encourage other people to help with this cause. I have a nephew who is a psychologist who works with abused kids from different countries coming to United States and know exactly what you are talking about. Again thank you guys, we need more people like you guys.
Darrin from St. Charles Mo. here!! I love you guy!! Bless your hearts for what you have accomplished.
Hi da Monk and Mrs Monkey.
Well as you said things can change, I am just surprised it has happened, but I understand why and respect your joint decision. Thank you for being so open and honest with us.
Much respect for y’all. I can tell it took some serious deep sole searching for y’all to come to this decision. I see this as a continuation of your dedication to kids. Today its your own. So proud to “know” you both. You are an example to follow for sure. In my humble opinion. Hope to have the pleasure of meeting y’all in person someday. Thank you for all you do for the kids, and for all you do for the world of motorcycling. You videos bring much appreciated value to those of us watching. I suspected Mrs Monkey had a high pressure/stressful job, today I learned that is true and that she holds a noble position amongst the top of the noble positions. ❤❤❤ to the Mrs and you Mr Monkey. One last thing, your daughter is lucky to have y’all as parents and humanity will benefit through her for it. Much love and respect, Frank, aka “allswild” 😊
We need more folks like the 2 of you in the world cause if there were kids wouldn't find themselves in bad situations. God bless the both of you for what you have done and are doing!!!!!!
❤
I appreciate you. I would have love to be apart of that organization. But I'm 100% involved with my work. Love you guys!!! You guys are awesome
Sometimes you gotta know when to say when. I never realized how hard it is to " Work The Mission" till I was doing it. I even tried to get my wife to do it but after seeing this now I know why she told me that is your thing not mine.
The two of you, both with a job and the added obligations , put an enormous strain on both of you and can affect the little one's growing up years..
High stress and obligation can get into your "psychy" and create problems also. Both of your dedication and honorable service haven't gone unnoticed..
Thanks for letting us all know about this part of your lives. It’s clear that y’all are standup people and don’t put your egos in front of the “organization”. Props. Much love, honor, and respect. Ride safe.
You said it 💯 right, stepping away. Not stepping out. Family first. ✊🏻
Wow, two fantastic people my heart goes out to you too. You live a good life. You are good people
I respect both of you guys for doing this video and all the good work with the kids ❤
Great organization, I live near a chapter here in California, and a buddy of mine is part of the organization and has asked many times for me to join. But as you said, I just haven't had the time to give it the attention it deserves. I work in an institution with juveniles and coach youth baseball, and...and...and... there's never enough time. Good for you guys!!! It's awesome that you can evaluate your needs and priorities for you to be good! Sorry, I'm rambling. Until next time keep the rubber side down 👍
Thank you both for everything you have done in the organization. I know how y'all feel I belong to guardians of the children Gastonia chapter
Thank you guys and what an incredible role you both play and have played. I'm going to look into what the organisation does in England.
I rode around with a cruiser group for almost a year once. now I don't have a cruiser, and that may have been an undercurrent problem, but when I mentioned "you don't have to slow down to 10 mph (or more) below the posted sign" they all lost their shit. we parted ways.
In the couple of years that I have been watching your channel I had no idea what Club you were part of, and because of both of your anonymity in regarding what and who the club is and how you chose to protect it, I knew there had to be a reason. In seeing this today I am truly amazed at the the type of commitment that is needed being part of that organization and what it entailed. Listening to you discuss MC protocols and different ranging topics knowing full well you were versed on so many levels of conduct needed, that what you were doing was very different; and I want to recognize how incredible your work is and that I can imagine the impact you’ve had on each and every single little ones who’s lives you impacted and I sat hearing watching this with tears rolling down my face. The strength, conviction and the amount of heart that it takes to do something at that level, well everything else pales in comparison! You are true warriors and protectors of ones who can’t protect themselves, it is that selfless act of kindness and compassion that is beyond what other patch organizations give to this country. Not to disparage or minimize the charity and fund raising other clubs do; it just what you do changes kids lives and you can’t put a value on that, it is the type of work that’s done by unsung heroes. God Bless you both and the work you’ve both done, the affects on the lives of each and every child you stood along side and protected whether being a physical presence providing the strength for these kids to be able to stand tall against such adversity or the unseen work behind the scenes; it takes a special type of person to know what are doing is incredibly valuable and cannot be praised enough, thank you for sharing your story, after watching this video I know that you both have done work that is not easy in any way. My father used to say “to justify your place in this world, make a difference in someone’s life today, that is the measure of a man” (or woman for that matter) that is a mantra that I tried to life my life by, you two have walked that walk!
❤❤
Mr & Mrs, I have always been a fan with much respect for you two. But this update brought my respect/admiration to another level. 🤝❤️
I wanted to say thank you for what you both do the kids that need help. You guys are amazing 👏
As a retired Navy police and DOD officer I have been involved in too many of these child abuse calls. It takes a lot out of you and you need some me time. Unfortunately you never forget as much as you would want to. Love your content and God bless you and your family
First off, thank you for caring so much for the ones that needed to be cared for. I like watching the channel, and for you to share personal information just shows who you are as person. I understand about leaving an organization. I had belonged to one before and enjoyed everything about it. But once I had to leave the general area and took 2 plus hours one way to make the meetings became too much. I decided to leave and not go into nomad status. It was hard to leave but there is always other events or tasks that can be done without the long commitment.
Love the channel keep it up.
Tough choice.... could not have been easy. Thank you for sharing. Thank you for all you do for kids.
I'm not a member of your channel so I'm not sure how I saw this vid, but I'm glad I did. Hats off to both of you. Well done and God bless 🙌
We made i public 😊❤
True brotherhood should not change whether you're still part of or not of an organization. However, sometimes, it doesn't always work out.
Yessir and monkey and Mrs monkey are my brother and sister not mater we we do or don’t have on our backs period
I was/(still am) a member of said organization. I am a long haul truck driver and just could not make most of the meetings therefore we concluded that I would go on leave of absence until I retire and can put the time in. They are a great organization. I know EXACTLY what you are talking about. I LIVED IT! MLLH&R! This is why I started to follow you AND will continue to until you kick me out...
Gus & I were talking about how we've only known you from videos but from all the discussions and content, we have grown to respect you both. It is understandable to need to step back. You will never stop doing what you can because that's who you are!!!!
God bless you both for your sacrifices made for the kids you undoubtedly helped. Selflessness is the defining characteristic of good people. Glad to call you friends.
❤
God bless you! I completely understand. We owe you a debt of gratitude for the job you do, the organization was blessing to have you and will continue doing the work on their end. I couldn’t imagine the things you see.
I live in Indiana my son lives in Port St Lucie he met some members of The Space Coast Chapter was very impressed with the organization.
That’s great work that you both do and I completely understand your reasons for stepping away! Good on you both!
I just looked it up and the Jacksonville Chapter meets literally 2 mins from my house.
Im going to check it out at the next meeting.
Right on! Tell Olaf I said hi!
You're decision, as difficult as it may have been, is very admirable in that you put family first. The children in foster care are in great hands with Mrs. Monkey, no doubt. You 2 rock.
Stay safe and god bless Monkeys.
As long as you are helping the children is all that matters if you need to leave a group that takes more from you, and you are still providing great care for the kids that's all that matters
I've got a whole new appreciation and love for your channel. I've been looking at riding with one group I'm particularly interested in. I think you may know them as GOC. Your informational videos were and are helpful as I am trying to get a chapter started here in Gettysburg Pa. Nothing is more important to me then protecting our children so much love to you both. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thank you brother for all you have done for the organization. You left on good terms and that's the best way to do it. Hope to meet you and Mrs Monkey someday. I have nothing but respect for the both of you.
My wife and I have been in the organization for almost 2 years. She has always been happy riding on the back of my bike. Watching your videos, Ms. Monkey actually encouraged my wife to get her own bike and start riding. Now like you, I got multiple bikes to upgrade and work on... Thanks for everything you guys do.
That’s awesome! I’d love to see pics. Email me at mrsmonkey5151@gmail.com MLLHR
Much respect to the two of you. Thank you for sharing this bit with us.
God bless you two for the work you have done with the kids that really need help.
Thank you for doing what you do and spreading so much knowledge of subjects most don't know. Congrats and does this mean more builds lol
I figured you guys were gonna make this video at some point. Remember somebody had said something on the last live that for the first time ever at least since I subscribed, they hit a nerve. Thank you Mrs Monkey for the work that you do.
Thank you brother and sister for all you support and empower for those little heroes! From the very deep bottom of my heart…you both will be there.
MLLHR.
Much respect for you guys being part of that org. Had caught a few glimpses of the cuts and such in previous videos and had asked you about this recently. Glad to see the video get out out there addressing it. Much respect to you both 👊🏻🥃
❤
I always wondered if you were in BACA. Y'all helped my girlfriends daughter get through court everyday. Amazing people and organization
Just joined as a new member of the channel. I had no idea you belonged to such a group. Thanks for the service. I can certainly appreciate that it must be a very hard job to do. We need more people like you guys in this messed up world 😊
❤
Good words about leaving a organization whether it is a association or a MC.....tell your wife thank you for what she does....much respect to her and really both of you.
