There are numerous hard men that have had their time in the limelight publishing books; Carlton Leach, Cass Pennant Roy Shaw just to name a few.
I think Dave worships the spotlight as it keeps him more legally employed doing appearances & writing books etc. Also he has never claimed to be a real hardman but as has already been mentioned it's more the people he has connections with that are the nutters. Yes Courtney is a bit of a showman but he definitely knows some naughty people.
