(FORTUNE Magazine) – When the Crazy Horse saloon in Anchorage, Alaska, kicked out Anthony Tait last year for refusing to take off his official Hell's Angel jacket, . . . Mr. Tait . . . filed a civil rights suit. Last month, an Anchorage Superior Court judge, citing Alaska's protection of free speech and the U.S. Constitution's equal protection provisions, ruled that the bar can't stop . . . Angels from wearing . . . jackets . . . The bar had argued that the presence of clearly identifiable Hell's Angels occasionally incited . . . patrons to take a swing at them . . . ''This is a victory for associational free speech,'' says the Angels' lawyer, Shawn Holliday . . . ((Crazy Horse lawyer Rex)) Butler says . . . fights . . . often require calls to the police . . . ''Look, we already confiscate the Angels' weapons at the door,'' says Mr. Butler. -- From an article in the Wall Street Journal
