I wouldn’t like this bike for a multi-hour ride down the slab, the bigger Indians are better suited for that, but they cost twice as much. I would want something with a little more protection up front. You can get an accessory windscreen, but it just moved the buffeting up to my helmet from my chest.

Um. Yes there is a perfectly reasonable answer to that question. When you empty your gun, for whatever reason, you reload. That is just what you do. It isn’t like he was sitting there thinking “what if I have to put another 16 rounds into him?” The reload is a cornerstone of any practical/tactical firearms training.

No, I highly doubt a calm conversation would have. Two realistic ways to handle this would have been 1. to keep their distance (>20’) until the 8 or 10 cops there could dismount and then use the available less lethal options while one or two cops maintained lethal coverage. 2. Have the 8 or 10 cops follow him around

I guess it depens on what you mean by “look so good.” I’d say most of the scramblers and retro-classics out there do this job and perform better, they also look cool but in a different way. If you want to come off the line quickly and go straight, you could do worse for the money; as long as you don’t need to stop.

Nice write up, even if it did sound like a bit of a commercial. Having ridden the standard Scout I’d say I’m less forgiving about the brakes, especially if you are riding it hard. They felt wooden to me.

I found one. But it is the only one so far. Really, though, they arrested someone. Don’t you think if it was a white guy it would be all over the news by now?

No, but you did make it clear how you think. So... thanks for putting all your other comments in context.

I do like how all these folks revealed how they think. They probably don’t even see the irony in their postings.

He is obviously mentally incapacitated, but I don’t think that should be a defense in this case.

Except that old guy outside Granbury when the MC tried to pass over the double yellow. (Now I’ve started it again.)

And I would be good with that if it weren’t for every 10’th car driving at 5 to 10 under the speed limit on the freeway. That isn’t an exageration. Counting these idiots helps keep me sane while driving amongst them. Sometimes they are in the right lane and it is no big deal, but many times they aren’t. The disparity

Shut your mouth, you have been conditioned by the media. Real airplanes have curves.

Or was it three shitty movies?

I think this guy can be mentally ill and a moster at the same time.

You realize that the federal VAW act was in effect in 1997 when the DV incident happened, right? You also realize that it was re-authorized in 2013 and remains in effect, right? There was a brief period in 2012 where renewal was in question due to new provisions, but those concerns were pushed aside and it was

Not surrender?

His wife filed a report but did not press charges. You can’t do anything to someone over only a report. If the victim goes to a judge and asks for some sort of protection order, then the judge can put restrictions in place. However even if an order were put in place, I don’t know when or how the gun was purchased. Was

Ok, but what constitutes “escort?” Did they actually go hands on or did they just walk beside them? From one of the videos a witness said that someone hit one of the shooters prior to the shooting.
