and all of that and we're going to get deeper into that subject we've talked at length about
diamonds and how crucial it can be depending on what territory you go to so we're going to get

if you're in the wrong territory what could happen but the first thing I want you to do

neckline shirts out right now so get those and let's break down this 13 1/2 diamond now before
we get into the clip we have broke down the 13 diamond origins I just wanted to say that when
I did that video check that video out we broke down where the diamond 13 started but there are
multiple reasons why different clubs wear it be a mother charter be it spelling out the name of your
club be it certain things that I can't talk about involving prison politics and stuff like that so
that's why it's not mentioned in that video so I just wanted to let that be known that
sometimes there's certain things where you can't go too far and talk about and and you know I've
heard people talk about you can't learn anything here and it's the same people that's trying to
teach someone here so that doesn't make any sense to me at all like the same people that are trying
to teach something are saying that you can't believe anybody or learn anything you can learn
you can learn from a baby you know what I'm saying so don't let people think that you can't learn
something by watching something do you have to experience stuff yes of course you do you have to
live the life to understand things you have to go through things to understand why people go so hard
for certain patches or whatever they do it's it's not just simple as black and white or just
straight up negativity sometimes it runs deeper than that has to do with things that happen in the
past between people that are still around and it it escalates you know so let's get into this clip
real quick of cliff the national president of the red rum mc breaking down the 13 and a half diamond
so did you have a crew of people that you grew up with and that's how you started red rom or
um i well my youngest brother um who was uh writing at the time and he was in lod
um at the time and so you know i rolled with him um and then so uh lod was sort of like
um you know always looking as like you know some of the brothers there like you know it's
like a race bike um you know partner you know brother club yeah you know yeah because you you
i always say you if you don't acknowledge where you came from then you don't know
where you're going you know and so we give you know mad props to our brothers in lod because
um red rum was formed from lod you know so me and my brother we started a nomad chapter at lod
and then from lod we we we moved off and started red rum so the 13 and a half um originally was you
know i i came up with that concept and we were the first ones to put 13 and a half in a diamond on a
on a vest i didn't come up with the concept of 13 and a half that had been around a long time
but you know i had the mindset of saying hey man i want to put that on a vest you know because i
believe in that philosophy um so you created the 13 and a half diamond because i know that was the
13th right but you created the direction of the diamond on a vest yeah okay and so i created that
and an lod even to this day still uses it and then we took it you know i gave it to lod
the leadership of the club which i was part of um dug it and then so then we you know so when we
we branched off and started redrum we took the you know the diamond and put it put it on on us so i
introduced that to lod probably i would say two thousand five or two thousand yeah
maybe so i know like when one percent clubs like new one percent clubs come out and and
once you know one of the bigger club sees they got their diamond automatically it's an issue
was it an issue in the beginning with the 13 1/2 or whether the relationships already there or it's
an issue to this day when we start new chapters it's an issue to this day you know I discourage
any club that's not built for conversation and for standing up with what they believe um in
not in a physical way but in in a way that they can converse in in and you know with the sentiment
of of uh of of believing in what you're putting out you know yeah because they you know you put
a diamond on you better have a good reason for it and a good so you know for us um when we when we
speak to and especially when there's new places that we're we're starting chapters in it's a
conversation man because you're putting a diamond on yeah and and a lot of guys have given their
lives up for these diamonds so the reason that i want to review this is because i have people
that tell me well you know you said never to throw on a diamond but they threw on the 13 1/2 there's
already a 13. listen you have to understand the footwork it takes the numbers the people you gotta
know the connections to sit down and be able to put on a diamond patch he said it in the clip that
there's certain places where it's just not gonna happen you know so you have to understand him
just saying that shows you how serious it could be this is a worldwide club right here so and this is
and this applies to any club like you can't just go anywhere you want and wear anything you want
and if you're a club that does that that's how the war start that's where the wars begin
is that mentality and that's what makes an outlaw club or that's what makes a one percent club they
they don't ask permission from other clubs for stuff like that and I want people to know that
when I'm saying not to throw on a diamond I'm talking about people that are not in a club and
they just see it online they go on wish they going wherever they had an event because they sell these
things at daytona sturgis or that you know you could purchase it there you know in a regular shop
that has patches so when I say don't mess with the diamonds it's for the people that don't understand
if you're in the culture you know that these diamonds are no joke and the repercussions that
come with it so if you have any questions let me know in the comments and thank you for tuning in
