Doesn't worry me because I have deliberately kept out of it .
I hope this doesn't turn out like two friends playing a "push each other" game . We all know where that ends up .

I think that because these "politics" effect motorcyclists it should be allowed for discussion. However we all need to be careful it doesn't turn a shitfight

I put money on it in 12 months time, it will have all settled down, grannies at church will not have been locked up for 25 yrs, however the real criminal element will have been given a bit of a touch up by the law. The day I am proven wrong, i.e. we suddenly have a spate of church goers, car club members, rugby players being locked up for 25 yrs, then I will scream as loud as the rest.

I can remember many years ago when good friends of mine had to take their 2 yrs old to hospital with burn to her hand when she pulled an iron off an ironing board. They were very angry that at the hospital they had been questions about the injury being a true accident, or if it could have been abuse. I agreed that this was a very unpleasant thing for a loving parent to go through, but as I explained to them, if that level of questioning resulted in one child abuser being caught, then it was worth it.

More recently and before the crackdown, I was pulled over by a local traffic cop, and she was completely honest that it was because I was riding a bike. Her reasoning was that there was a particularly high number of riders  where either unlicensed or riding bikes  with a capacity above their licence limit. She was pleasant about the whole thing, apologised for the interruption to my day once all the checks had been made. Had the same thing happened today, to someone else, I put my left one on it that that person would have cried harassment and linked it to the new laws.

Gee the ***wits have invaded this forum now...................

It is NOT ok to be pulled over just because you're riding a bike.
Laws already exist to deal with organised crime, drugs & murder etc.
Your child injury story would be the same as everyone who buys an iron having to prove they're not a child abuser.

Prove my first sentence wrong
