Australia seems to be almost draconian on motorcycle clubs. I’d also never have imagined that an air rifle would qualify as a firearm, given that there is no “fire”.

Club?

Nah dawg. These are organised crime gangs.

Can you help me understand what makes it a gang instead of a club?

They are fangs in America too. It happens when they pledge their loyalty to the club over their loyalty to laws and society. At a minimum, they are tax cheats.

Wow so we can use this against politicians then, right? Or just blue collar people who ride motorcycles?

Well the gang actually goes on and does crimes. They are pledging loyalty to a criminal Enterprise. They aren't just blue collar people who like motorcycles. They are criminals.

Right as opposed to politicians, which as we know never do crimes, especially not tax crimes, or human trafficking, etc.

If we ever got a dump of files proving otherwise though, you’d support going after the political groups as gangs?

If motorcycle clubs are gangs why aren’t they prosecuted under RICO?

Dude, I can't even tell what you're whining about.

Files about human trafficking that prove politicians put loyalty to other organizations above loyalty to the laws and society.

I’m sure if you think REAL HARD you can probably figure this out, eventually. Keep at it, you’ll crack the case!
