California: A Mongols MC prospect (no top rocker on vest) just saved the life of some MC-poser who was wearing a FAKE Hells Angels vest. The Mongol recognized the vest as a fake and instead of going down to real gang business as they are commonly known to do if encountering an actual HA in their territory, merely took the poser's vest and gave him a warning of what could have happened to him in an active gang warzone where both MCs share a tenuous border, and a fragile momentary ceasefire. If that poser with his fake vest had encountered an actual HA, that dude is NOT making it back home ever again. In George Christie's memoirs turned History Channel documentary called "Outlaw Chronicles", if two prospective HA hangarounds failed a "mud-check" just because they were unable to handle 10 hits of LSD, and the response by that particular chapter was to take them out into the desert and beat and shoot them both to death, it is not difficult to imagine what the SOP would be with a poser caught wearing fake colors or tattoos... This dude right here literally got his life saved by that Mongols prospect...
