As with any club or culture, SOA’s rules and codes of conduct are constantly evolving. However, some rules are unshakable as they are the foundation of the club’s existence and ability to thrive. They are all about — loyalty.
1. Loyalty to the club always comes first. First to the club itself, by respecting your colors and cuts above all else. And secondly, though no less important, to your brothers. In any situation it’s not about whether your brother is right or wrong, but the fact that he is your brother. All members must be prepared to give their lives for either one of the two.
2. All members must at all times adhere to the club’s spirit of rebellion and reject conformist culture.
3. The President is the supreme commander of the club. Any member found to be spreading contention or rebellion in the club (be against the President or club policies,) will either be severely dealt with and/or stripped of his patch.
4. Respect the club’s strict code of silence. Any member found guilty of divulging club business, policies, or goings on to anyone that is not a member – unless specifically directed by the President, will be severely dealt with and/or stripped of his patch. “What you hear here, what you see here, what you say here, stays here.”
5. The club’s code of honor is strictly enforced. Any member found guilty of cowardice, will be severely dealt with and/or stripped of his patch.
6. Any member who steals from the club will be severely dealt with and/or stripped of his patch.
7. Any member found guilty of stealing from or conning another member, will be severely dealt with and/or stripped of his patch.
8. Any member that pulls a gun or any murderous weapon at Church, will be severely dealt with and/or stripped of his patch.
9. Any member that lays down with another member’s old lady, will be severely dealt with and/or stripped of his patch.
10. Any member found guilty of not helping another member in genuine trouble will be severely dealt with and/or stripped of his patch.
11. Any member who loses their cut to an outsider will be severely dealt with and/or stripped of his patch.
Wearing the reaper demands more than just having a good time. There is a responsibility and commitment to the club and brotherhood. Every member’s main priority is to give rather than receive — Give respect, expect respect. Act with disrespect, and expect nothing less in return. Loyalty breeds loyalty.
