Was in the Defenders for a good while and met some great people. After being in for several years, I started to see the leadership actively associates with know felons. Chapter openings and weekend social retreats (from the top members) with their felon friends.... Rules are applied to weed out those that can't be controlled.
There are great people in this club, but after witnessing some of the stuff I've seen, I'll never belong to this club again.
Two cents
