Bandidos Motorcycle Club
The Bandidos Motorcycle Club, also known as the Bandido Nation, is a "one-percenter" motorcycle club〔 and organized crime syndicate with a worldwide membership. The club was formed in 1966 by Don Chambers in Texas. Its motto is "We are the people our parents warned us about." It is estimated to have 2,400 members in 210 chapters, located in 22 countries. The club considers itself to be an outlaw motorcycle club. The Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Criminal Intelligence Service Canada have named the Bandidos an "outlaw motorcycle gang".〔
==History==
The Bandidos were founded by 36-year-old dockworker Donald Chambers in March 1966 in Houston, Texas.〔(Texas Monthly: "The Gang’s All Here" by Skip Hollansworth ) APRIL 2007〕 He named the club in honor of the Mexican bandits who lived by their own rules and he recruited members from biker bars locally in Houston as well as in Corpus Christi, Galveston, and San Antonio.〔 Like other outlaw motorcycle clubs (Outlaws, the Pagans, and the Hells Angels), they call themselves "One Percenters", a phrase coined by the former president of the American Motorcyclist Association who once stated that 99 percent of motorcyclists were law-abiding citizens and 1 percent "outlaws."〔 By the early 1970s, the club had over one hundred members including many Vietnam veterans.〔 The majority of the club consists of white males but Hispanics are also admitted.〔 Their motto is "We are the people our parents warned us about."〔
