I was born into a 1% in New England with my dad being a member. I also joined the club when I was 19. I left the club (in good standing) in 2008 after 15 years for legal reasons that had nothing to do with the club and I didn’t want the club implicated. Looking back 16 years later and now being sober and a father I would never condone or allow my sons to be a part of a 1% club. I glorified the club because it was instilled in me since birth and it took years for me to loose that mindset. My older brother has also been a member of the same club for 36 years.
People like this are the ones who infringe your Second Amendment by breaking in your home and taking your firearms. Yet they scream, "Don't tread on me," then blame the government for taking their gun rights as a felon.
I lived in tamworth N.H. for a while as a kid but moved to a little town called Brownville Jct, Maine. My brother n law was running with the diablos Mc outta N.H. When he passed at a young age of 28, they showed up at the funeral home and put his cut in with him. They showed him and all his family and friends all the respect in the world. Im glad you are on the straight and narrow, and being a parent is hard enough. Especially nowadays. Fighting that demon of addiction is hell in itself. Sorry for the long essay. Watching this from Lewiston,Maine.

He's a great guy according to him, but hanging around a lot of guys who are not. Talks in general vagaries, the lack of detail suggests some mythmaking going on and is not convincing.

Good interview and glad that he shared his story! It’s a blessing to have another opportunity to get things straightened out in one’s life. Will be praying for this man!
I remember as a kid in the early 90s visiting my dad in Concord State Prison. I wasn't allowed to go see him after a few visits because of a lot of stabbings going on. But man i loved that vending machine in the visiting room. 😅
It is tough to live with all this stuff in his head. And he articulated that very well. Brave to share so publicly. Hope Rich gets the chance to live a good life and leave the past behind. 🍀
Never was a club member myself. But did party with some 1%ers in my early days. Even just by observation, I need spoke about their business to this day.
Two things-- 1st-- the thin blue line is not what you described, its simply means its a thin line between good and evil represented by a person in blue! 2nd-- Dealing with mental people they tend to hurt themselves and others and do criminal acts during their crisis, social worker are not mentally equipped to physically and legally handle a person like this! My experience is they hinder and endanger officer trying to deal with the issues at hand! Good on him to better himself and get his life back together, martial arts, riding and the military was a big deal in my live and helped guide me to.. Ride Safe!

Thats gotta be weird - scary & stressful having a child at age 13 - thats literally a baby having a baby - that has to be tough on the mother & him. I am the complete opposite my parents were in there 50s when they had me & people always thought they were my grandparents - 1 of my brothers is 20yrs older than me & everyone thought he was my father - my other brother is 7 yrs older than me - thls story is very interesting - he is well spoken - doesn't come off as a idiot & has a good story. I hope he continues to do well.
What was that like have older parents. Feel like they’re might some advantage with patience and time, like they would be way more invested in the child and less ambitious about other things
I guarantee this is the guy at parties that listens to your story…..then proceeds to tell 10 stories that he thinks one up your story……he’s usually not invited to future parties after this 😂😂😂😂
Im from NH. My father was a medic in many cities before moving to new england became a firefighter later in his career at the NH fire academy. I was a EMT. All of that checks out with his stories. Ive also been around several 1% clubs in the NH area. All yall saying this guy is bullshit...youre thinking of all 1%ers being like sonny barger or Taco Bowman or any other prolific 1%ers the fact is most arent like that unless youre in big clubs in notorious states they control by force. There are absolutely major clubs and numerous support clubs and coalition clubs in the NH area and the area he's from several of which I have a feeling this man could of been in. Im not naming names but they've been around for years but they dont have the reputation nor do they want it or need it. You have to have a low profile in a small state especially with a patch on your back. This dude knows a lot of specifics about ems, about club life and prison life that you dont just know, youve lived it. The terms he uses are very accurate. I know 1%ers that are firefighters and paramedics. Theyre not all gangsters most, at least in NH are hardworking, blue collar men and some are absolute scumbags but his story fits. All of yall doubting him, do not know how it works up here.
the absence of children being raised by a stable biological father and mother has tragic consequences, its good to hear that he is trying to break the cycle.
Yup. I am testament to that. I know people who had it so much worse than I did growing up, and all the people we knew talked about what a sweet lady my mom is and how much she loves me and always talks about me, but unfortunately there is A LOT that she probably hasn't told them.
@@LitWickeyYT0oh man .... The Creators do not make trash. You've had it fought..no doubt. I wasn't in facilities as you were..but not a perfect childhood by any means. You can hate things You've done ... BUT don't hate yourself please. Your soul is not rotten because you've made a few mistakes. And the last thing you need to do is to put yourself down. There are plenty of people out there who will do that for ...you don't have to agree with them or add to it. Look in the mirror...and find 3 ....only 3 things you like about you. As simple as...

YOU ARE A SURVIVOR. BLESSED BE !❤
It takes a certain kind of person to have the guts and where with all after you've finished your prison term. To look at yourself, honestly, to self reflect and reinvent yourself. It's not easy. Trust many can't do it
Three black belts and 23 mastered styles by 18, and a bouncer applying these skills. Sad what happens to children when they have bad childhoods. They have to make stuff up so people either feel sorry for them and help them, or they feel better about themselves with big stories and accomplishments
My buddy joined the Outlaws because of Sons of Anarchy. Nicest guy. Owned his own trucking business. Got charged with like 50 others in Indianapolis several years back. Was told if he kept quiet they’d pay him when he was out…they did not and he lost his whole family. Sad. Jamie aka Jammer was a great guy
Even in my small town in South Jersey firefighting was a right of passage. If you were able body male, you joined the fire department at 14. Now with so many subdivisions going up it’s not like it used to be. our population has spiked so high since the 90s. The women did the ambulance hall and the men did fire department. Hearing that scanner go off was a constant and all of our homes growing up. It’s a skill and sense of duty to community that the younger generations really miss out on
Here in Virginia it's the same way, I did Fire and Rescue here for almost 19 year's, I started as a junior member and was the first junior member in our Dept. It also helped my girlfriend at the time in high school was our Fire Chief lol. But it's a passage of right here also both of my parent's ran Rescue Squad and two uncle's and grandfather
For all the comment cucks As someone who has lived the outlaw biker life for 39;years I don't talk club stuff period. Nobody needs to know your business or who you ride or rode with, seen plenty of folks lose for being quick to run that yapper.
I don't have anything figured out but i do know this. I would not be in a club. There are a ton of prospects in prision doing life with out. That never got to enjoy being a member. Because they got busted doing " that work "
Man, that's a horrible deal at 18. I had friends that got locked up for similar things but were given a 1st offender deal. Usually 5yrs in, then they erase your record after 10yrs. I'm glad he shared his story, though. He's definitely still young enough to make a positive impact in his childs life.
Walpole!! That’s right down the road from where I live!! You never hear about anyone from New Hampshire, let alone a town in Cheshire County. I probably went to school with this guy.
You said that you went to a dojo in Keene, i believe that i went there for a weekend seminar in the mid to late 90 's, i was a member of a dojo in Groton, Connecticut. Our root master, which would have also been yours if you were there in that time frame. Was Hanshi, Bruce Jutnik
Sticking up for yourself while in prison has nothing to do with being a member of a MC.. you stand up for yourself because you as a man should and if you're ever in need of help nobody's going to help someone who won't help themselves
That’s a pretty typical thing to say. “The schools don’t know how to teach me I was just too smart”. I have two graduate degrees and I was a total fuck off until college but it was never bc the school could not hang w my intelligence it was bc I was a fuck off. I wonder how many top ranked surgeons had that same problem of not being able to be contained? If guess very few. The smartest ones are typically the ones who STFU and do their work. My daughter has always been a straight A (with occasional B) student but not once has a disciplinary issue been raised. Not saying she’s a genius (even though I obviously think she is) I’m saying she keeps her fucking mouth shut studies her ass off and puts in the work.
Really enjoyed hearing this guys story.. obviously very intelligent with a lot of great insights.. I wish more people could hear this.. thank you for sharing 👍

That's actually not totally uncommon in amateur fighting if you are legit and active. Once again, I said something similar on another comment , I'm not saying he isn't full of shit because he definitely is but not because of that detail. I was an amateur boxer and 300 fights in 6 - 7 years is absolutely possible as long as you are always active and live in an area with a big amateur scene and New England has one of the biggest in the country. This might also include unsanctioned fights which are more common than you might think. Now 300 fights is on the higher end and is usually from a fighter with a real trainer backing them and had a future as a pro but I have seem not so great amateurs rack up hundreds of fights in under 8 years . Also keep in mind that some amateurs start as young as 8 or 9 years old and racking up that many fights would happen very easily for someone who starts early. I know it's slightly different in different combat sports but not by much. However I can sense he is lying or exaggerating about most of the stuff he's talking about and he gave very little details so it's possible he never actually fought but the numbers itself aren't a giveaway
Typical Judo/ karate/ Jujitsu weekend tournaments allow you to have 4 fights on Saturday , 4 fights on Sunday If you go to a regional tournament every 2 weeks, that's 16 fights a month. If you compete 8 months a year, that's 128 fights a year. Every single fight is registered by your martial arts association. 300 fights between 14 and 18 years old is 100% realistic. You obviously have no idea what the fuck youre talking about.
He’s right, our system needs to be revamped by others who have knowledge and experience with addressing dysfunctional issues in society! Where the Bible is good instruction, but many do not have this life experience, they are born into another world where they haven’t experienced good! Where catch it before it starts! Only thing is, we know government can’t be allowed to start such as they’d hire people that are connected but not competent! Where we’d have to change our system and see who we can take notes from!
Nothing worse than a badass who feels sorry for themselves. News flash everyone gets screwed over at times and many people are struggling just to survive. You don't see them breaking into the neighbors home to steal from them.
I don't believe that this guy was a patched member in a MC to save my life. He might have been a hang around or just a prospected for a while but i don't think he ever patched in, if he did it must not have been a 1%er. He's definitely not talking like he was in one, i feel like he either was a hang around or watched a lot of RUclips or Documentaries about them
When i was a kid, someone telling you they had just one black belt let you know they were special. 23 black belts wow. And volunteer firefighter. He also probably has pet spiders and snakes and will tell you about them.
Faster than a speeding locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, friend to those who need no friends, enemy to those who have no enemies… I think I saw this guy at the dry cleaners picking up his cape
Just found your channel I subscribed just after this interview. He is a very smart guy and I think I know which club he rode with, I did the whole support club for a 1% club that I'm 99 percent sure he rode with. I'm out to it wasn't what I expected it to be I guess I thought it was the same as back in the 50s early 60s but no things have changed just not my cup of tea lol. I still love my Harley I just ride alone now

Man I was listening to this story while doing things around the house. But stopped dead when he talks about getting pulled over as a convicted felon with an affiliation history.. doesn't matter how long you've been behaving, you're sitting, second car pulls up... Man I hate it
Very very true! Been many years since I got out and earlier this week got pulled over by gang unit while on my Harley for failing to signal… put in cuffs, questioned about everything from stickers on my helmet to my employment, then finally let go with a “sorry, we are just doing our job” it never leaves you that’s for sure!
Interesting... I never ride dirty, I keep my registration up to date, have insurance, never speed and obey all the traffic laws. And I never get pulled over. Funny how that works!
Besides big cities Everwood else in the country firefighter are called to every scene, doesn't matter if it's a fire, some auto accident or just a ambush needed. Crazy thing is that they're volunteers and they are paid very little. In my area each call a volunteer firefighter responds to he or she gets $20..
I myself have been successful then got in trouble and became a ganger and I also picked up a drug addiction morp heroin that shit 20 odd years thanks to my counsellor and the 4 years of putting up with me. Who are you really I mean really dude wow
I was thinking about what he said of people wearing Sons of Anarchy "patches", as well as certain other patches related to the 1%ers. That part is good advice though. I was raised around, and ran in the circles of 1%ers and I'm in Wally World to pick up a little grub and here's this man and woman couple, mid-forties, dressed like BIKERS, not motorcyclists, and wearing some kind of patches. My vision ain't too good in my old age so as I got closer, I could see they had Sons of Anarchy patches, plus a couple other patches they weren't representing respectfully either. We passed one another and we locked eyes, the guy looked away, the woman looked...crazy eyes..she had crazy eyes but I could easily tell that they weren't hardcore bikers...more like masquerading, that's an extremely dangerous game to play and especially if you're wearing support colors ..that can be dicey.
Blows my mind that the interviewer didn't know that fire dept responded to car accident and other emergency calls not related to house fires....how ignorant can you be?
While the comment may have been disparaging we at My Story view this as a teachable moment for those of our audience that is interested in rhetoric & production. My friend, this is what you call rhetorical questioning. This type of question is often used to make a point or to lead into a discussion where the answer may be already known or obvious to the questioner but might not be to the audience. It is a question that is asked for effect, rather than from a desire to know the answer. Many great interviewers, producers, & host use rhetorical device. Far from indicating a lack of subject knowledge (in this case, firefighting), it demonstrates their ability to explore topics in-depth and cater to audience needs. Nonetheless. Thank you for your comment. In an unexpected way, it opened up a dialogue that allowed us to teach the audience about rhetoric and communication techniques within the realm of production. In fact, your question, "How ignorant can you be?" may not have been intended as a rhetorical question, but it had that effect, and it provided a teaching moment. I appreciate your input and thank you for watching!
Fire trucks respond to accidents in small towns...? They respond on interstate highways, parkways, and everywhere else. They respond to calls for chest pains if necessary. He's even lying about his father. A pathological liar.
@@marcroseman2466yes, a chronic liar. He's a protector and a defender😂😂 he protected the queers he says😂 Some 1%er. How many of those guys do you know go around protecting queers?

@@MyStoryShow I know him personally. I met him while on my second year of lock up. He is very smart, has a big heart and a great brother from another mother.
@thomasryan2679 hehe. What made me chuckle was near the beginning of the interview when he said, 'I've always been very smart'. I know quite a few exceptionally intelligent individuals and I have never heard them say, 'I'm smart'. It seems as if it doesn't take much to impress the majority of the viewers of youtube. Especially those that leave comments. It appears that speaking proper sentences impresses them... It is kind of sad.
43:49 and it should change the way they interact with you AND the fact that it does change the way they interact with you tells me that they didn't assume upon first interaction with you that you were going to be a volatile or uncooperative person.
my husband was on the USS Kittyhawk in about 1964- 196? I didn’t know him then but met him in 1979. He was also a 1% after returning. He was also on another ship but can’t spell it lol. US T….

"There's no rehabilitation in prison. There's no programs." That's such bullshit smh There are literally tons of programs to help inmates "rehabilitate" themselves. It comes down to one thing; the inmate and his or her attitude. NO ONE can make a person change inside or outside the prisons. But there are numerous classes and counseling sessions, etc. Not to mention the prison jobs themselves.
There's usually a long waiting list to get into those programs and jobs . Some times the list is a few years out before you can even get in. I met him in Concord prison. Took me 2 years just to get into the drug and alcohol program
even here in canada Fire trucks ar always 1st on scene as they have the life saving equipment , jaws of life excetera excetera they were the 1st on scene with the accdient that disabled 4 life I fell 4 stories off a roof at work acutally yesrerday was the 6 year anniversary of my accident also the fire trucks were the 1st on scene at the shooting I witnessed this last friday

You say that tv shows, or series like Son's of Anarchy, lead people on, about wearing patches that they purchased on line., and going to parties, and fucking up. There was none of that in Son's of Anarchy. And trust me I know what im talking about. But that was back in my day.
When people play the victim because of their childhood, they lose me. I had an extremely abusive and traumatic childhood and still managed to not join a gang or 1%er MC. I have gotten in trouble, of course, I think any young man without a positive role model will eventually find trouble when they're out there trying to prove themselves to their friends. This guy, however, is just full of BS. Bad childhood, master of 33 martial arts, always was working 2-3 jobs, firefighter, policeman, MMA champ, sharpshooter, war hero, mechanic, welder, carpenter(before he was even 18) etc... He's a master in his own mind. Probably doesn't have many friends, he might have one really gullible young naive kid that believes him and thinks he's the man lol. The guy is just a pathological liar and failure.
I went theu my own story of a rough childhood.. Having a kid at 19 did change me, tho.. .. i eventually did join military and corrections.. I understand that in any " gang," you are in the " brotherhood." I've made it a point to be my own person on both my careers. Somehow, it's worked for me. I'm not a dic$ just to be one.. respect goes both ways.. and i give a $hit.. unless I'm forced not to because of disrespect.. which only really happened w my ex best friends! Ironic..
I was born into a 1% in New England with my dad being a member. I also joined the club when I was 19. I left the club (in good standing) in 2008 after 15 years for legal reasons that had nothing to do with the club and I didn’t want the club implicated.

I don’t think you know what literally means
Haha write on! I literally laughed out loud!

It's very interesting because he's making most of it up.
Hes sounds just like one of these stolen valor navy seals that Don Shipley goes in on.
Do you know how amazing a family has to be to adopt a child and give them a great life... sad when thats not enough to the child
Amazing guy, hard worker, great sense of humor and known him for 16 years.
Too bad he's full of shit.
No he's not
I knew him 16 years by the time he was 13
I guarantee this is the guy at parties that listens to your story…..then proceeds to tell 10 stories that he thinks one up your story……he’s usually not invited to future parties after this 😂😂😂😂
I know right during the first 5 minutes of this story I was like this guy's a lying his ass off
Well any credible club you can't leave get back in leave and back etc I do know that much is true
Hahhahahha YES BROTHER THAT IS THIS GUY 100% well said mate
Im from NH. My father was a medic in many cities before moving to new england became a firefighter later in his career at the NH fire academy. I was a EMT. All of that checks out with his stories. Ive also been around several 1% clubs in the NH area. All yall saying this guy is bullshit...youre thinking of all 1%ers being like sonny barger or Taco Bowman or any other prolific 1%ers the fact is most arent like that unless youre in big clubs in notorious states they control by force. There are absolutely major clubs and numerous support clubs and coalition clubs in the NH area and the area he's from several of which I have a feeling this man could of been in. Im not naming names but they've been around for years but they dont have the reputation nor do they want it or need it. You have to have a low profile in a small state especially with a patch on your back. This dude knows a lot of specifics about ems, about club life and prison life that you dont just know, youve lived it. The terms he uses are very accurate. I know 1%ers that are firefighters and paramedics. Theyre not all gangsters most, at least in NH are hardworking, blue collar men and some are absolute scumbags but his story fits. All of yall doubting him, do not know how it works up here.
You can't be in one of the top 10 , 1% clubs, and work in an environment, that is affiliated with, the po, po. And that's a fact
Are you his boyfriend 😂
the absence of children being raised by a stable biological father and mother has tragic consequences, its good to hear that he is trying to break the cycle.
Yup. I am testament to that. I know people who had it so much worse than I did growing up, and all the people we knew talked about what a sweet lady my mom is and how much she loves me and always talks about me, but unfortunately there is A LOT that she probably hasn't told them.
I really don't feel sorry for all these individuals who have caused so much turmoil...
No one needs you to weirdo
35 minutes in and being a dude with very similar life he is proclaiming I gotta say it sounds like total bullshit
@@LitWickeyYT0oh man .... The Creators do not make trash. You've had it fought..no doubt. I wasn't in facilities as you were..but not a perfect childhood by any means. You can hate things You've done ... BUT don't hate yourself please. Your soul is not rotten because you've made a few mistakes. And the last thing you need to do is to put yourself down. There are plenty of people out there who will do that for ...you don't have to agree with them or add to it. Look in the mirror...and find 3 ....only 3 things you like about you. As simple as...

Woops forgive the typos... see ? Did you forgive my mistakes ? Now forgive yours. Take care of you. Please.
It takes a certain kind of person to have the guts and where with all after you've finished your prison term. To look at yourself, honestly, to self reflect and reinvent yourself. It's not easy. Trust many can't do it
Three black belts and 23 mastered styles by 18, and a bouncer applying these skills. Sad what happens to children when they have bad childhoods. They have to make stuff up so people either feel sorry for them and help them, or they feel better about themselves with big stories and accomplishments
Every bully i ever knew ..."i am the kind of person that stuck up for the weak... always got in trouble beating up the bully...
My buddy joined the Outlaws because of Sons of Anarchy. Nicest guy. Owned his own trucking business. Got charged with like 50 others in Indianapolis several years back. Was told if he kept quiet they’d pay him when he was out…they did not and he lost his whole family. Sad. Jamie aka Jammer was a great guy
Even in my small town in South Jersey firefighting was a right of passage. If you were able body male, you joined the fire department at 14. Now with so many subdivisions going up it’s not like it used to be. our population has spiked so high since the 90s. The women did the ambulance hall and the men did fire department. Hearing that scanner go off was a constant and all of our homes growing up. It’s a skill and sense of duty to community that the younger generations really miss out on
Here in Virginia it's the same way, I did Fire and Rescue here for almost 19 year's, I started as a junior member and was the first junior member in our Dept. It also helped my girlfriend at the time in high school was our Fire Chief lol. But it's a passage of right here also both of my parent's ran Rescue Squad and two uncle's and grandfather
I dont see why he cant say what club he rolled with. Reminds me of how those stolen Valor dudes "can't talk about their service"
I have a hot girlfriend, but you dont know her because she goes to a different school..
For all the comment cucks As someone who has lived the outlaw biker life for 39;years I don't talk club stuff period. Nobody needs to know your business or who you ride or rode with, seen plenty of folks lose for being quick to run that yapper.
It’s because he’s full of crap 😂
There ain't that many 1% clubs in New Hampshire
He is full of shit
Stay in that good place. My best to you.
I don't have anything figured out but i do know this. I would not be in a club. There are a ton of prospects in prision doing life with out. That never got to enjoy being a member. Because they got busted doing " that work "
Man, that's a horrible deal at 18. I had friends that got locked up for similar things but were given a 1st offender deal. Usually 5yrs in, then they erase your record after 10yrs.
I'm glad he shared his story, though. He's definitely still young enough to make a positive impact in his childs life.
horrible deal? He is breaking into peoples homes and stealing firearms (if you even believe this dickhead)
Good for you man that's great. Much respect
Just by the length of your beard tells me you have stories !!!! I connect to all of this absolutely loved it
Walpole!! That’s right down the road from where I live!! You never hear about anyone from New Hampshire, let alone a town in Cheshire County. I probably went to school with this guy.
You said that you went to a dojo in Keene, i believe that i went there for a weekend seminar in the mid to late 90 's, i was a member of a dojo in Groton, Connecticut. Our root master, which would have also been yours if you were there in that time frame. Was Hanshi, Bruce Jutnik
The quest should reach out to Matt Cox! He has a good story and Matt could really help him tell it!! Hope to see you on his channel!
Great suggestion Christopher! Thanks for watching & being a part of our growing community! - Bleu
You’re a cool good person. You went through a challenging life experiences. Stay humble and be a good Dad. God Bless.
Great interview
Sticking up for yourself while in prison has nothing to do with being a member of a MC.. you stand up for yourself because you as a man should and if you're ever in need of help nobody's going to help someone who won't help themselves
Good guy . Hope he stays on the right path . Life is hard and a test to us all. Hope he gets to be the dad he so wants to be !
He was so smart in school he got bored and in trouble 😂 Is that what they told you? 😂
That’s a pretty typical thing to say. “The schools don’t know how to teach me I was just too smart”. I have two graduate degrees and I was a total fuck off until college but it was never bc the school could not hang w my intelligence it was bc I was a fuck off. I wonder how many top ranked surgeons had that same problem of not being able to be contained? If guess very few. The smartest ones are typically the ones who STFU and do their work. My daughter has always been a straight A (with occasional B) student but not once has a disciplinary issue been raised. Not saying she’s a genius (even though I obviously think she is) I’m saying she keeps her fucking mouth shut studies her ass off and puts in the work.
Really enjoyed hearing this guys story.. obviously very intelligent with a lot of great insights.. I wish more people could hear this.. thank you for sharing 👍
Glad you enjoyed watching Rich's story Penley. As our community grows more people will hear these stories thanks to the support of you and others who like and share the content. - Bleu
Walpole is such a great little town. Classic New England.
Amazing self analytics.. you have a great future ahead of you
.
Good conversation also
300 fights by the time you were 18. Sure buddy.
And 3 black belts in different styles. Doesn't even mention a single style.
That's actually not totally uncommon in amateur fighting if you are legit and active. Once again, I said something similar on another comment , I'm not saying he isn't full of shit because he definitely is but not because of that detail.
I was an amateur boxer and 300 fights in 6 - 7 years is absolutely possible as long as you are always active and live in an area with a big amateur scene and New England has one of the biggest in the country. This might also include unsanctioned fights which are more common than you might think.
Now 300 fights is on the higher end and is usually from a fighter with a real trainer backing them and had a future as a pro but I have seem not so great amateurs rack up hundreds of fights in under 8 years . Also keep in mind that some amateurs start as young as 8 or 9 years old and racking up that many fights would happen very easily for someone who starts early.
I know it's slightly different in different combat sports but not by much.
However I can sense he is lying or exaggerating about most of the stuff he's talking about and he gave very little details so it's possible he never actually fought but the numbers itself aren't a giveaway
Typical Judo/ karate/ Jujitsu weekend tournaments allow you to have 4 fights on Saturday , 4 fights on Sunday
If you go to a regional tournament every 2 weeks, that's 16 fights a month.
If you compete 8 months a year, that's 128 fights a year.
Every single fight is registered by your martial arts association.
300 fights between 14 and 18 years old is 100% realistic.
You obviously have no idea what the fuck youre talking about.
Took that charge just so I could get out... it's sad that sometimes we taking extra charges just to get out
U had weapons and lead the cops on a 2hr chase. 5 years is better than a bullet like most would get these days. Cops don’t play now
You kidding? You see the shit cops have to put up with in NYC, LA etc? It depends on where u live..
He’s right, our system needs to be revamped by others who have knowledge and experience with addressing dysfunctional issues in society! Where the Bible is good instruction, but many do not have this life experience, they are born into another world where they haven’t experienced good! Where catch it before it starts!
Only thing is, we know government can’t be allowed to start such as they’d hire people that are connected but not competent! Where we’d have to change our system and see who we can take notes from!
Keep this going. Separate responses from people that are directed at the subject from those directed at you.
Nothing worse than a badass who feels sorry for themselves. News flash everyone gets screwed over at times and many people are struggling just to survive. You don't see them breaking into the neighbors home to steal from them.
I don't believe that this guy was a patched member in a MC to save my life. He might have been a hang around or just a prospected for a while but i don't think he ever patched in, if he did it must not have been a 1%er. He's definitely not talking like he was in one, i feel like he either was a hang around or watched a lot of RUclips or Documentaries about them
He was in a tiny support club for the OL’s. He never went past that. I don’t think they’re even there anymore.
Aha !.... He said Probate...
Good coming up. love the power of a attitude adjustment.
When i was a kid, someone telling you they had just one black belt let you know they were special. 23 black belts wow. And volunteer firefighter. He also probably has pet spiders and snakes and will tell you about them.
Faster than a speeding locomotive, able to leap tall buildings in a single bound, friend to those who need no friends, enemy to those who have no enemies… I think I saw this guy at the dry cleaners picking up his cape
The interviewer didnt know the fucking fire department assisted in car wrecks, what planet are you from ?
Just found your channel I subscribed just after this interview. He is a very smart guy and I think I know which club he rode with, I did the whole support club for a 1% club that I'm 99 percent sure he rode with. I'm out to it wasn't what I expected it to be I guess I thought it was the same as back in the 50s early 60s but no things have changed just not my cup of tea lol. I still love my Harley I just ride alone now

Man I was listening to this story while doing things around the house. But stopped dead when he talks about getting pulled over as a convicted felon with an affiliation history.. doesn't matter how long you've been behaving, you're sitting, second car pulls up... Man I hate it
On any stop!
Very very true! Been many years since I got out and earlier this week got pulled over by gang unit while on my Harley for failing to signal… put in cuffs, questioned about everything from stickers on my helmet to my employment, then finally let go with a “sorry, we are just doing our job” it never leaves you that’s for sure!
@@AKBiker82 exactly and then everyone wonders why we don't change our behaviors when nobody else's behavior changes.
Facts
Hey Man, you are a good dude. Keep up the hard work.
Interesting... I never ride dirty, I keep my registration up to date, have insurance, never speed and obey all the traffic laws. And I never get pulled over. Funny how that works!
I have 300 fight with 275 wins 25 losses what's my name?
Ummm
I don't get the reference
Unbelievable
Thank you very much Philadelphia USA 🇺🇸 Nostrovia ❤❤❤
Great interview!
He's out good. There's no reason he can't say the name of the club
No. That would be considered bragging
100% not true

God Bless you and your family my friend My Brother. Amen. Peace ✌️ from Big Jim New Hampshire USA aka Boston Strong
Besides big cities Everwood else in the country firefighter are called to every scene, doesn't matter if it's a fire, some auto accident or just a ambush needed. Crazy thing is that they're volunteers and they are paid very little. In my area each call a volunteer firefighter responds to he or she gets $20..
Dude, Acually got his juniors G MAN badge.That's awesome
I myself have been successful then got in trouble and became a ganger and I also picked up a drug addiction morp heroin that shit 20 odd years thanks to my counsellor and the 4 years of putting up with me. Who are you really I mean really dude wow
Getting flashbacks from listening to him. He's dead on telling it right
I was thinking about what he said of people wearing Sons of Anarchy "patches", as well as certain other patches related to the 1%ers. That part is good advice though. I was raised around, and ran in the circles of 1%ers and I'm in Wally World to pick up a little grub and here's this man and woman couple, mid-forties, dressed like BIKERS, not motorcyclists, and wearing some kind of patches. My vision ain't too good in my old age so as I got closer, I could see they had Sons of Anarchy patches, plus a couple other patches they weren't representing respectfully either. We passed one another and we locked eyes, the guy looked away, the woman looked...crazy eyes..she had crazy eyes but I could easily tell that they weren't hardcore bikers...more like masquerading, that's an extremely dangerous game to play and especially if you're wearing support colors ..that can be dicey.
The interviewer didn't know firefighters respond and rescue at car accidents??
And then Froto said to me “Here, you take the ring”
Blows my mind that the interviewer didn't know that fire dept responded to car accident and other emergency calls not related to house fires....how ignorant can you be?
While the comment may have been disparaging we at My Story view this as a teachable moment for those of our audience that is interested in rhetoric & production.
My friend, this is what you call rhetorical questioning. This type of question is often used to make a point or to lead into a discussion where the answer may be already known or obvious to the questioner but might not be to the audience. It is a question that is asked for effect, rather than from a desire to know the answer.
Many great interviewers, producers, & host use rhetorical device. Far from indicating a lack of subject knowledge (in this case, firefighting), it demonstrates their ability to explore topics in-depth and cater to audience needs.
Nonetheless. Thank you for your comment. In an unexpected way, it opened up a dialogue that allowed us to teach the audience about rhetoric and communication techniques within the realm of production. In fact, your question, "How ignorant can you be?" may not have been intended as a rhetorical question, but it had that effect, and it provided a teaching moment.
I appreciate your input and thank you for watching!
Fire trucks respond to accidents in small towns...? They respond on interstate highways, parkways, and everywhere else. They respond to calls for chest pains if necessary. He's even lying about his father. A pathological liar.
@@marcroseman2466yes, a chronic liar. He's a protector and a defender😂😂 he protected the queers he says😂 Some 1%er. How many of those guys do you know go around protecting queers?

@thomasryan2679 hehe. What made me chuckle was near the beginning of the interview when he said, 'I've always been very smart'. I know quite a few exceptionally intelligent individuals and I have never heard them say, 'I'm smart'. It seems as if it doesn't take much to impress the majority of the viewers of youtube. Especially those that leave comments. It appears that speaking proper sentences impresses them... It is kind of sad.
Respect ✊ stay strong brother
43:49 and it should change the way they interact with you AND the fact that it does change the way they interact with you tells me that they didn't assume upon first interaction with you that you were going to be a volatile or uncooperative person.

COs also make really good money.. you wouldn't believe how much they make in states like California.. plus the overtime hours that aren't figured into the average salary. The overtime is why COs do their best to keep the prison and inmate chaotic

"There's no rehabilitation in prison. There's no programs."
That's such bullshit smh
There are literally tons of programs to help inmates "rehabilitate" themselves. It comes down to one thing; the inmate and his or her attitude. NO ONE can make a person change inside or outside the prisons. But there are numerous classes and counseling sessions, etc. Not to mention the prison jobs themselves.
There's usually a long waiting list to get into those programs and jobs . Some times the list is a few years out before you can even get in. I met him in Concord prison. Took me 2 years just to get into the drug and alcohol program

You say that tv shows, or series like Son's of Anarchy, lead people on, about wearing patches that they purchased on line., and going to parties, and fucking up. There was none of that in Son's of Anarchy. And trust me I know what im talking about. But that was back in my day.
I did many years for unaliving my wife, and even i take responsibility. This guy acts like it's the worlds fault he committed crimes
When people play the victim because of their childhood, they lose me. I had an extremely abusive and traumatic childhood and still managed to not join a gang or 1%er MC. I have gotten in trouble, of course, I think any young man without a positive role model will eventually find trouble when they're out there trying to prove themselves to their friends. This guy, however, is just full of BS. Bad childhood, master of 33 martial arts, always was working 2-3 jobs, firefighter, policeman, MMA champ, sharpshooter, war hero, mechanic, welder, carpenter(before he was even 18) etc... He's a master in his own mind. Probably doesn't have many friends, he might have one really gullible young naive kid that believes him and thinks he's the man lol. The guy is just a pathological liar and failure.
I went theu my own story of a rough childhood..
Having a kid at 19 did change me, tho.. .. i eventually did join military and corrections..
I understand that in any " gang," you are in the "
brotherhood." I've made it a point to be my own person on both my careers. Somehow, it's worked for me. I'm not a dic$ just to be one.. respect goes both ways.. and i give a $hit.. unless I'm forced not to because of disrespect.. which only really happened w my ex best friends! Ironic..
