Tension Escalates Between S.F. Hells Angels & Mongols

By , About.com GuideSeptember 22, 2008

Hells Angels

If you thought motorcycle gang violence was limited to TV shows and movies, think again: a pipe bomb blast in San Jose is being considered a retaliation against the murder of San Francisco Hells Angels leader Mark "Papa" Guardado.

Nobody was hurt in the blast, but authorities are on alert; ""These boys have been feuding since at least 1977," explains a biker gang consultant in a San Jose Mercury News story. "Just the fact that your victim is a Mongol you have to look at the Hells Angels. They certainly can carry a grudge."

Whether or not the violence will continue to escalate is anybody's guess, but it certainly is a reminder that the stuff of fiction is often based on real life.

I think its pretty wild that the H.A. are getting into a war with mongoloids. Its kind of sad really. Leave the poor goofy bastards alone. Equal rights for the mentally handicapped is great, and them having a club is great too, but doesn’t anyone think it might be a bad idea and unsafe for them to be on motorcycles? They could be given rides on the back, but they really probably shouldn’t be driving the motorcycles. Now the Hells angels are going to start fights with them on top of it? haven’t they suffered enough? I wonder if Corky from Life Goes On is a member of the club? I hope not, I wouldn’t want to see him get hurt!

Thought the pipe bomb went off in San Jose? When did this one go off in Modesto?

Well if you want draw attention away from your bad doings, then you plant or do something to make your enemy look guilty. I.E. The pipe bome did almost no damage, therefore I think the mongols did the bombing to make it look as if the H.A. did it.

RIDE FREE AND RIDE RED AND WHITE!!!!!!!!!

Too bad the bomb wasn’t bigger…migh’ve been a good chance to exterminate a whole bunch the scum bags.
The Hell’s Angels (all biker gangs) should have been dealt with a long time ago.
The only problem is the innocent people that go gown too.

A couple of social dropouts wrestle outside a bar. One gets shot and dies. The other runs and hides. Both lives are over forever. Then some moron, who wants to represent, sneaks around at night and throws three pipe bombs under a car that might scared off a cat and made the Chihuahua bark. Yeah, those are signs of real biker “war” to citizens. If those mean ol bikers ever grow up they would be dangerous.

have they done enought damage to each other put them ring and let them fight out sick of hear about war between groups

The Mongols charter say they will defeat their enemise, take their possessions, wives and children. So what could the Hells Angels do-back down from a fight? No way-give them hell, man!! Live to ride!!

(13) S/O says:

Hey here is an idea. Put them all in a ring, no rules and let them go at it!!!! Best man surives and claims victory for his gang!!!! Oh, the last man get shot between the eyes after accepting victory.

Well I think that they should give all those guys (meaning anyone in a gang or gang type motorcycle club) Brand new AR-15 or M4’s along with hair cuts and uniforms and ship to Iraq and let them get the whole thing out of their system and we’ll see if they are really are that tough!!!!

Any respectful club has respect for each other and their territory, we are all different yet similar. If push really came to shove we are all on the same side, Real justice, without clout. Their are no wars if territorial borders are respected.

Anyone who says the Mongols are cowards don’t know what the hell they’re talking about. In the original war with the HA back in the 70s the Mongols were outnumbered 5 to 1. Does a coward take on those kind of odds? If the HA couldn’t beat the Mongols then then they can’t beat them now either.

(31) M. Malone says:

The plain truth is that far more Mongol scum have died in the two wars with the HA’s the vice versa. The Hells Angels have been kicking Mongol ass for 30 years and they will wait untill the right opportunity presents itself and then take out a senior Mongol coward leader in revenge of the murder of Mark “Papa” Guardado. Mongols are on the run from the feds and scared crapless of the Angels…81 whips all comers, Outlaws, Pagans, Bandidos and especially Mongol filth:)

(32) chica says:

What Malone means is the Hells Angels have gotten their asses kicked by the Mongols for 30 years. The HA were supposed to shut the Mongols down 30 years ago remember? But that didn’t happen now did it?

This falls under club business for all parties involved. Those not directly incolved should just go and mind their own business. What is between the two MCa will not effect you, unless you stick your nose where it doesn’t belomng

@ridenfree……This is not the Elks ,Moose Lodge,Sons of Italy,V.F.W.,or your bowling league.These OMCs aren’t about motorcycles and riding.What they are about is none of yours or my business.I fight the common enemy of every Biker,the goverment that violates our civil rights.They say they are looking out for our safety,but why are gang-unit personel at roadside safety checkstops?They couldn’t take the Mongol’s patch and they can’t have my 1,4,5,&14 ammendment rights.And I NEVER thought biker wars were only on TV!

(41) Maldito says:

I’m no Mongul or belong to any group, but don’t agree with HA’s giving permission for a groupto wear colors or to exist. I couldn’t see supporting any group to survive screw that. I heard back in the day HA didn’t want veteran Chicano’s in the group so they started their own. Just respect everyone and have the older bikers control the younger ones. These younger ones have to prove their manhood with hand guns and bombs. Just enjoy the ride!

I knew some Ha’s many years ago in the south. They stooped so low that they even stole from each other, even to the point of ripping off what few good prospects they had coming along by breaking into their houses while they were gone from home running club errands. What kind of brotherhood is that?? Anyone stupid enough to wear a patch with a 666 on it is either a sorry sob or wants to go to hell to begin with! Its just a matter of time before the OUTLAWS, PAGANS, and Mongols and BANDIDOS in a united effort wipe out the Big Red 81s!
