Back in July of 2013, Luc Perreault stopped at a Tim Horton’s restaurant and was casually greeted by a young girl who smiled at him and said “Hi.”
Luc responded to the friendly greeting with a “Hello” of his own, but the girl’s mother didn’t take to kindly to her daughter greeting him.
She grabbed her daughter and hurried off, but not before Luc overheard her saying “We don’t talk to dirty bikers.”
Luc took to Facebook that day to deliver an epic response that shows you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover.
To the family in the red SUV at Tim Horton’s today…
Yes I am a big 280 lbs. guy with motorcycles and full of tattoos. I am a welder, I am loud, I drink beer, I swear, and I look like I would eat your soul if you stare at me wrong.
He continued:
What you don’t know is that I have been happily married for 11 years, my kids call me daddy, I am a college graduate…
My mother is proud of me and tells everyone how lucky she is to have such a wonderful son, my nieces and nephews are always happy to see there m’noncl Luc…
When my daughter broke her arm, I cried more than she did.
I read books, I help people, I go out of my way to thank war veterans and I even cried at Armageddon…
So next time I smile and say hi to your little girl and you grab her and tell her, ‘No no dear, we don’t talk to dirty bikers…’
Remember that even tho you hurt my feelings, this ‘dirty biker’ would be the first person to run into your burning house to save your little girls goldfish so she wouldn’t be sad!
