The Black Sabbath Motorcycle Club Nation is a national, 99%er motorcycle club whose members ride all makes of street legal motorcycles (cruisers at least 750cc and sport bikes at least 600cc).[1] As of 2014, it is not listed by the United States Department of Justice or California Department of Justice as an Outlaw Motorcycle Club or Gang.[4][5]

Violence

Violent incidents have occurred in or around nationwide clubhouses.

  • In 2002 a President Bull of the Zodiacs MC was killed after he pulled a gun on his former prospect who was partying at the Mother chapter with a new club in which he was interested. The former prospect slashed Bull's throat with a knife when he inadvertently looked away during the confrontation. This was the first killing ever committed at a BSMC clubhouse and it brought the city of San Diego down on top of the club house. The City Attorney initiated a campaign to shut the clubhouse down that nearly finished the BSMC off. Then National President Paul 'Pep' Perry stated that he knew there was a beef between the two but the President Bull had promised before entering the clubhouse that he would never bring violence to the BSMC clubhouse.[6] The clubhouse was subsequently firebombed in retaliation for Bull's killing.
  • In February 2010 the Mother chapter at 4280 was again targeted by arsonists who attempted to burn it to the ground right before the 2010 annual but were unsuccessful.[7][8][9]
  • In 2010 a man was fatally shot in a hail of gunfire outside the Phoenix chapter of the BSMC club house during an altercation over a woman. He died a block away while fleeing the scene.[10][11] This incident caused the closing of the Phoenix chapter clubhouse.
  • On May 11, 2012 San Diego Mother Chapter President Wild Dogg was murdered in front of the Black Sabbath MC clubhouse at 4280 Market Street during a drive by assassination. The case is still unsolved and open.[12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]
