Johanna Report post Posted October 19, 2010 The One Percenter originally came from a comment by the American Motorcyclists Assoc. who said 99% of bikers were responsible law abiding citizens. In the 80s, it was drug slang. The Outlaws (a motorcycle "gang") picked it up in the 90s. Disclaimer: I don't wear colors- I don't mind doing club work. I have nothing against any of the "gangs". I work for individuals. However the Outlaws developed a special reputation I find repugnant, and it's best summed up in this quote from Wikipedia. Quote One-percenter MCs (OMCs) do not allow women to become full-patch members, rather, women are submissive to the men, treated as property, victimized by being forced into prostitution or street-level drug trafficking, and often physically and sexually abused. Any pay women receive is given to their individual men and sometimes to the entire club I won't work for homophobes, misogynists or skinheads. If you lie down with dogs, you get fleas.
