If you're asking for a hug, forget it, Richard.

I'm referring to what Freud called the death instinct -- the drive toward destruction. Members of biker gangs channel this death drive outwardly as aggression toward others, and inwardly as self-harm or suicide.

One sees it in biker symbology, such as skull and crossbones, hell fire, demons, chains, Nazi symbols, Maltese crosses, etc., and in the drive toward prison life to bone or be boned.

It's just Psych 101. Not complicated.
