That RPG incident was a HA club having a party one night being hit by 1 or 2 RPGs fired by Bandidos, part of what i believe was called the great Nordic biker war in the 90ties.
Wow. I had no idea. That's pretty harsh. We have bikers here, too. We get a few instances every now and then of their misbehaving but I've never heard of them slinging RPGs like that to prove a point. Hells Angles used to tear things up a bit around here, but nothing even approximating what you just described. You said it was in the 90s. I hope the past is the past and lessons were learned. Stay safe, indeed.
Also there are a new biker gang trying to get a foothold here, those are Satudarah or Saturday as i call them, their club houses have been under gunfire lately, and i even think a couple of hand granades was tossed too, and then the default reaction here are to close the club house at least for a while.
Apparently, you guys have three main chapters in Denmark, but they appear to have originated in the Netherlands - they're all over there. Looks like we've got at least two chapters over here in the New York area as well. They appear to be mostly middle age men (or approaching middle age) with nothing else better to do than to
not act their age. I've always felt like people who needed a 'gang' were both mentally and emotionally weak and unable to stand on their own two feet as independent Men and Women.
I grew up surrounding by gangs. I had to fight my way to school in the morning and then back home just so I could do my homework. I never joined any of them and that garnered a level of respect among most of them. I always felt like I wanted to be part of something positive and not constantly negative. Since I was reared by my parents and not raised like wild corn, I knew the difference between right and wrong and had the facility to act on it. Most gang members are full blown Reprobates. It is not that they don't know the differential between right and wrong - it is that they do not have the capacity to select right over wrong and that's what makes them Reprobate. They have no real self-discipline, they know nothing of real self-sacrifice, they have no ethical core, moral backbone, integrity, character and they do not know how to set principles and priorities in life. They have deluded themselves into believing that the "Gang" will provide these things for them - a sense of belonging, self-worth and pride. None of which is true. But, again - that's what being a Reprobate means - the inability to act on Right over Wrong.
Still, some of these gangs can wreak havoc on a society - but many other things can as well. Poor public policy, equally as corrupt politicians, failed educational systems, morally bankrupt executive leaders within large scale corporations and narcissistic people who can't get over themselves long enough to figure out that the world needs them to be part of the Solution instead of constantly part of the Problem. So, in the global scheme of things, as far as history is concerned, these kinds of gangs are but a microcosm of what global society has become. We did this. Ergo, ultimately we are going to be responsible for cleaning it up, if our goal is to push forward to a better world for our yet unborn future generations who will require us to do so.
But no doubt the 2-3 generation immigrant gangs are the worst, those guys have little respect for anything, the bikers they at least ended their war them self as it was pretty bad for business.

The official estimate is the Danish drug market is over a billion DKkr every year, that's something like +150 million USD.
Its failed parenting and no sense of direction that causes the need to cluster (mass together) for strength instead of building a foundation of strength as an individual who contributes to the greater good for the betterment of whole. What we are dealing with here is thousands upon thousands of years of moral neglect - or the neglect of moral foundation. These chickens are doing what they are supposed to be doing - coming home to roost. When we take the world and look at it from a global perspective we see rank poverty everywhere and clustered wealth in specific places. But, we also see People feeling and believing they are powerless to improve their lot in life.
If People were truly at their best, then they would be engaged in life doing those things they did well and for the sole purpose of improving society and life within that society. Yet, we don't see this on the whole. We see people having been reduced to Economic Slavery and that is one of the cornerstone problems the entire world faces. Until we get to a point where every individual can contribute their talents and their gifts towards improving our world, this planet will continue to degrade and its fully sentient, fully corporeal, upright, bipedal species will ultimately suffer and eventually die out as a direct result of internal moral decay.
We have a choice to make. We can reach for a better world or we can let it burn. Either way, it will be our choice to make. We are not the first biological species to exist on this planet, but we could very well become one of the last full sentient to exist in this part of the universe, if we don't change course and do it now.
Imagine a world were everyone had a place and a purpose which contributed to making the planet more livable for all. That world does exist in concept. We simply have not yet made such a world a manifest reality. And, we have not yet done so, because we have yet to believe that we can. We get exactly what we focus on. Nothing less and nothing more. The world is exactly what we have made it to be.
