Seriously stupid cops. Their road block caused more problems than it solved. How many arrests did they make from that?

Showing up with two patrol cars attempting to catch 100 people is just phenomenally stupid. I'd suggest that until the cops come up with a real plan they just stay out of the way.

I know exactly how to stop this, how to catch an entire mob of riders at once and only use resources any medium sized city/county should have on hand.

This is the same "Ride of the Century" that some on this Forum were admiring a couple of weeks ago because of the skills of the riders. Happens annually. Imagine your wife and children surrounded by these guys.

Not hundreds of riders involved, but thousands. The police really do have to wake the f--k up. They would have to know when this is coming; there is no excuse for lack of preparation and proper response. As I said here before, this gives all of us a bad reputation because cagers do not differentiate.

Nothing good will come of this.

Meh. When they hurt a civilian I'll be angry, but TBH right now it's just a major annoyance to law abiding citizens.

They could put a stop to it in a hurry. It won't be a priority until a citizen gets hurt. As to people risking their own skin I still don't care a lick.

Where was this? I think if that was happening around here you would have seen a bunch of bikers for Hood Ornaments. We would not have let the cops be 2 against hundreds. We would have been moving cars blocking them in bumping them, whatever. And thats not vigilante. That is assisting an officer which is allowed.

nope , more then just that, ina word Outlaws, blatant disregard to the lives of those around them, blatant disregard to the rules of the road, far beyond what is safe, reasonable or prudent. If they were just risking their own skin fine, but the put anyone they come in contact with in immediate risk.
