Bikie gangs


Today Sunday ran a story about bikie gangs. A transcript is available. Much of it has a South Australian flavour.

While the program was to my mind relatively even handed, perhaps even pro bikie, parts of the footage showed a gang refusing to stop at a police roadblock. I wonder what would happen to most of us if we tried that ?


One of the issues raised by the program was the lack of criminal convictions obtained by police against bikie gang members. I'll therefore be interested to see the consequences of the six arrests and 11 reports in the five day "Operation Cornerstone" as reported in today's Sunday Mail (p25 not online).
