So what if it is an old video.

Not everyone has seen it.

Do you not watch movies from the past you have never seen?

Yep, and to quote a few of my favs:

"They that sow in tears shall reap joy."

Psalms 126:5

"Damn skippy."

Proverbs (ch. XVI, v. 7)

Repost or not this brings a story to mind. Back in '89-'90 I had an aquatience I went to college with who had a Ninja. Eric traveled between a little town of Floyd, VA and Christiansburg, VA to a second shift job. He was one of those guys that you would never expect to be a wild rider. One night he passed an LEO who called ahead to another to have the MC stopped for a license check. Several of teh older folks around there who listen to their scanners came forward as witnesses to what happened to Eric. They reported that they heard an officer say "I know how to stop him." just before he hit him head on. Eric almost died multiple times and due to his injuries could never ride again. Heck PT took years. Despite everything, witnesses and so forth, the officer just got a repremand and claimed the the biker was traveling at such a high rate of speed that there was no choice but to stop him this way before he killed someone. IIRC the civil suit did not go very far.

Wow, tough crowd today...

I had not seen that before and I frequent 4 different boards for three years. :blink:

Holy cow, what a barbaric way to stop the rider. I have a bad feeling the officer in the unmarked car enjoyed that. :glare:

Sounds like some BS wive's tale. There's more to that story. As you presented it, it was aggravated assault at a minimum by the officer and would NOT have 'just gone away'.

Dont run... No Problem

And not only that, dude had taken hostages. Deadly force completely justified IMHO.

I couldn't comment on 'more to the story' (yes there could be more)but the outcome of the police internal to-do came from Eric and I think that was the impetus of the civil suit that was pending at that time. The outcome I heard did come from a 3,4,5th? party, but not Eric as I lost contact with him. It was a topic in these parts for a very long time. No kidding, he was one of the nicest young men you could ever meet.

I don't think that we have the market cornered, but here in SW VA, the 'good ol' boy' system is alive and well.
