Not many are going to agree with your actions, therefore only sharing them invites the sort of cat fight bickering that we're seeing here. Just keep it to yourself...****ing loser. We don't need people like you representing our country.

there's no situation where a police officer is justified in kicking a bike over as a result of a speeding ticket only.

lol ignorant of what -- the fact that we're obviously not ignorant of our rights of personal freedom's to own things and not have them smashed when someone throws a temper tantrum...my kids 8 and would know better then to knock a bike over, examples of this could be anything, like, its after 8 PM which means noise ordinance takes effect and your still out mowing your lawn and after the police coming repeatedly to tell you to stop, they break your zero turn mower.... but because the both of you are taking the stance of the neighbors bothered you say yeah its ok....notice the tone of the thread, its subjective...

We had a case here not long ago where a guy on a GSXR1000 ran from the cops for over an hour. He basically had gotten away from immediate pursuit, and was stopped at a stoplight 20 miles away. A county sherriff saw him at the stop light and proceeded the knock the guy over with his push bumper. A judge ruled that action was justified because the rider was obviously a flight risk. I think you could make a case that the policeman in the video also pushed the bike over to ensure that no one got away (the rider was struggling...)

That's not at all the case in the video you were talking about. Time it. Those cops were after the guy for SEVERAL minutes. This is not a "oops I was speeding a bit" this is blantanly,recklessly trying to run away and the knucklehead gets everything he deserves.

RE: running from cops
Nevermind. It's not worth the arguement.
Have a GREAT day, courtesy of your US Military.
I will say this though: Would you rather have someone tell you what you THINK others need to hear, or tell you straight up? I am not the type of person that pulls the "Do as I say, not as I do" routine, and my Marines appreciate that. I also teach advanced riding to my unit's riders, making them safer on the roads. In the process, I TELL them that I ride fast. I TELL them I enjoy wheelies. I TELL them I drag knees. I also TELL them to get the hell away from town if you are going to pull that kind of crap. Just like I do, and yes, my superiors know how I ride.
This site obviously has no problem with members flaming other members, even if it's for being honest, so if that's the way it is here, please just delete my user name.

we have no problems with enjoying riding, we may have problems with breaking the law...we really can't endorse that without popo's getting upset ya know?
just know that this IS the internet...and people will flame...for right reasons or wrong reasons. we just keep those flames under control.

Just because you are in the military...Just because they have let you stay in this far...Doesnt give you the priveledge (spell check!!!)
doesnt give you the right to "represent" the US Military. I cant tell what you wrote earlier, but based on the reaction, it couldnt have been promoting good order and discipline. When you say something questionable...and someone calls you out for it (ie KidCr3nshaw)...you should be careful.
Never say "your welcome". Dont say "your welcome to your opinion, have a great day...curteousy of the US Military" when the other guy didnt say "Thanks" Not a good way to represent. Thats like saying "The only reason you all are even allowed to have opinions, is because of me". Un-Cool.
