VETERAN BIKERS MC – OUR GOAL IS NEVER TO SIMPLY TALK THE TALK BUT TO ALSO WALK THE WALK !
This is why VBMC will never apply for a 501c3 status. To do so compromises an organization, causing them to be restricted by government as to what they can say, stand up for or against, to include endorsing, supporting or opposing a particular political candidate. In essence they become IMPOTENT SLAVES OF THE GOVERNMENT SYSTEM, cowardly and in fear of loosing their tax exempt status for speaking out against government corruption, violations of our Constitutionally protected rights, liberties and freedoms or any religious matter. They become politically correct and powerless.
AS VETERAN BIKERS WE INTEND ON STANDING OUR GROUND AS PATRIOTS AND BEING THE TRUE DEFINITION OF THE TERM – ‘HOMELAND SECURITY’
