I have been writing about different motorcycle clubs and the one I want to talk about now is BACA
Bikers Against Child Abuse.  I recently received a facebook post about this group and went to their web site and found this amazing group of bikers. 

So many children are abused in this country every day and in so many cases they have no real protection.  These men and women are there for them.  They have to be contacted than they go in force to the child's home.  They are there for support and to give the children the feeling of strength and power over their fear.

When a child is abused the normally they do not have the protection that they need because most child support workers and legal offices are not on call 24/7 where these bikers are there for them whenever they need the reassurance that they are safe.

These are the kind of groups that need to have the support by all people. They can make such a difference in the life's of these children and their families.

I would ask that everyone visit their web site and watch the video's.

Motorcycle Clubs

The history of motorcycle clubs started in 1924.  Many groups where started by ex military members returning from war.  In recent history more and more veterans are forming groups of men and woman that share a history and want to respect other veterans.

There are so many groups one being the Patriot Guard.  These are veterans and  non veterans  that wish to pay respect to Fallen Military Heroes, First Responders and honorably discharged Veterans.  They have made the news lately with the actions of Westboro Baptist Church.

These man provide volunteer services for these heroes and prevent disruption of services.  These man ask for nothing other than the respect be shown these fallen heroes that they deserve. 

As I stated there are many of the groups another is Combat Veterans Motorcycle Ass.  This is a group that is made up of combat veterans that share the same hobby and that is motorcycles.  This like the Patriot Guard is a national organization.  These are the groups that are giving clubs a new name and a pride of membership.

Having served my time I respect the things that these people are doing for other veterans. It is my wish to give some well deserved recognition to these groups.  Most of the organizations are now creating web pages and on facebook which helps spread there mission.

This groups need all of our support so that they may grow and continue to do the work that is being provided.

Motorcycle Clubs

Recently I have had the honor of riding with the motorcycle group Soldiers of the Cross.  This has been a great experience for me.  To be able to ride with people that have the same background and the same desire to share the gospel has been a wonderful experience.  As members of a group that can go to places that most people would not be welcome or allowed, to share the gospel with men and women in need of help and support allows us to do the work  that is command by God. 

In the past most motorcycle clubs or groups where looked down upon because of the history that goes along with being a biker.  It is missions like these that help improve the image of us as people and groups.  In recent years more and more groups are doing things such as fund raisers for the needy, toys for tots and so much more it is things like this that are a great image improver but far to often go unnoticed by the public.  The word of the good that is being done needs to spread but to often the men and women in these groups are not looking for the recognition.  They just want to share there own personal experiences with others so that  they may also have the chance to become better people.

It is my hope that more people will understand the need for this kind of work and will be open to joining one of these groups. 

In a time when being a Christian is not politically correct it is often difficult for these groups to grow because so many people are afraid of being labeled as a bigot or racist because of there beliefs.  It seems that the first amendment only applies to certain groups.  How a group that is made up of all different people groups and cultures can be considered racist is beyond me when race has nothing to do with being Christian. That disagreeing with a life style is being a bigot or wanting men and woman to use the restroom that they are gendered to is being bad or intolerant.  These are the things that make me ask who is the intolerant one.

The FBI has a court order that Apple help them break into the phone of the terrorist in Calf.  But this has grown to just more than that phone.  There have been disagreements over this by all people groups. 

The President is once again involved stating that this an issue of national security.  Ever since the Edward Snowden's disclosure the over reach of the government has become an issue. 

I can understand both sides of the argument but I tend to agree with apple that the government is once again overstepping their bound.  We are entitled to some privacy in our personal life's. The government has overstepped their limits on more than once.  This administration has gotten involved to many times in things that it shouldn't as well as collect information on people for no reason.

The main fact that I have problems with is that the phone in question was a company phone and that the shooters had destroyed their personal phones which would be the most likely ones to have information on them. 

This also will open up many other issues which have already started. There already is a case in New York that wants the phone of a suspected drug dealer on locked.  This is the kind of thing that will grow out of hand. All tech company's will be required to help unlock personal devices for what ever reason that government or police may request.
