1+. There are two types of people. Ones that think most cops are OK and ones who think every cop is a corrupt dirt bag. In my almost 60 years I think that most cops are good and are just trying to do their job, which can be very stressful and dangerous.

The joke was funny. And no that's not all he was worth. We're all waiting on the details.

The truth could be anything. Was the rider on PCP and came up from wreck a raging wildman? Was the officer itching to shoot? The only truth we know of in this case, no matter what our personal experience with law enforcement has been, is that we just don't know the details of the situation. We may never know.

A joke.....and nothing more. He may have had it coming.....if he was moaning loud enough

Okay, I'm reading your post on my iPhone, so maybe that's why I can't identify your scoot . . . What model/year bike are you riding?
Surprised to hear its an issue if you're on a recent model Honda.

ha, I have a 2006 Honda Shadow Aero VT750C.
They're aftermarket mirrors and it doesn't really get bad until about 70 mph, but it does make it hard to see what's behind me.

This isn't the best angle, but to give you an idea.....

There is no reason to fear the police, they are merely an arm of our government.. and as recent events have shown we can always trust our government..right?

Well thank you for the blind insight there. Feel free to call me a liar and criticize my lifestyle anytime if that makes you feel clever.
