I don't see how I'm being narrow minded. If they're being sensible and not taunting the cops, riding down a freeway doing dumb poo poo and then posting the recordings on youtube they are, by definition, Not Those People.

I'm all for stunting, stunting's the poo poo. Just do it in a place where you're not bothering or endangering other people on the road. That's like Remedial Don't Be a Dickhead 099

Running around in an unassailable pack of hundreds, ruining people's day then hiding behind your strength in numbers and bragging about how tough you are on the internet is not great. It's cowardly, self-centered and detestable. gently caress those people and gently caress their stunta crews and gently caress their little clubs and their youtube videos and their unbelievably over-inflated egos.

I don't equate drifting with fuckwits in silvias wrapping themselves around poles and I don't equate stunting with these meatheads.

Narrow minded wasn't a perfect word choice, but you're playing Freud online, dude. Like, it is cool to hate stuntaz doin' wicked rad poo poo on the innerstate, but drat dawg, diagnosing fools online is weaker than my Oedipal complex (my mom is a fatty).

Yeah, stunters who do that poo poo illegally on the crowded interstate/city streets are shitheads. Way to give people more of a reason to hate riders, bravo, thanks assholes.

That stretch of 680 is an absolute ghost town except during rush hour, which it clearly isn't. Also most of East San Jose(locals, not techies) probably supports the gently caress The Police attitude of the video.

Anyway, tomorrow is Halloween, official day of mischief and miscreants, hooning and hooligans, tricks or treats. Go out and tear it up.

The problem with this is that now, the police will make it their business to make operating a motorcycle in your town incredibly problematic for literally everyone. That is what drives me the most crazy about the whole thing; they're so incredibly self-centered that they don't see how it fucks it up for everyone else because they can't keep their wheelie-peens in their pants.

We in the US don't need to worry about police harassment because someone said they saw a bike with roughly the same color as yours going over a footpath within 3mi of your house.

I take it you haven't seen the videos of Oakland PD driving away from block parties where people are firing off guns and drinking in the middle of the street. I'd link it but I'm phone posting.

Depending on where you are there might be some retaliation from local PD, but I don't expect it in ESSJ. Our local PD doesn't even have the numbers to respond to robberies in a timely manner, they can't waste what little manpower they've got on riders. Unless a group picks it up as their crusade of the month nothing will happen.


Edit
I forgot to mention that vehicular exhibitionism like cruising and stunting is also slightly more acceptable here because of the strong Latino culture. It is a modern update to an older Mexican tradition which I have completely forgotten the name of. Basically the only way I see this becoming a big deal in my region is if whiteys get involved.

They're my local squids too and gently caress them. You want to go out and have fun, that's fine, just don't do it in a place where you inconvenience or screw with others. Our police culture is totally hosed but a bunch of dudes riding wheelies on city streets aren't going to fix a goddamn thing, and acting like theyre some sort of Robin Hood on wheels is loving moronic.

You want to keep the police in line? loving vote, get involved with the community, work to improve the relationship between the police and their communities. Behavior like what is on that video is just going to lead to reprecussions, same way people wadding it in the hills does. Oh and they arrested that guy because he's a loving moron and posted the video under his own account, exactly as they should have.

Amen. I'm impressed by stunting and I think it's very cool and real stunting requires talent and practice. The odd wheelie on an empty highway, who cares? But when these guys act like thugs when they have numbers and poo poo all over everyone else in crowded traffic situations are just being selfish douchemuppets. I'm not at all a fan of police culture in the USA, but not all cops are dicks and their job is to respond to calls, so they'll have to chase these guys down.

I may have posted this earlier, but a friend of mine was riding from point a to point b and got pulled over. Officer comes up and my friend asked, "Why am I getting pulled over?". Cop responded with, "You'll see in a second." Few seconds later 50-100 stuntahs come roaring by. Cop told my buddy, the Staties had barricaded the highway a few miles up and he didn't want to see my friend get caught in that net for the stuntahs.

Over the years I've tended to find that the fuckwits bleating about being harassed by the cops all the time are the same fuckwits who have no impulse control and are constantly getting caught doing dumb poo poo, ruining it for everyone else in turn. gently caress those guys.

Back in the day when I was involved in the car scene we made a point of not cruising with anyone who caused trouble, and always sending a couple of guys to approach any cops who came by to check us out. We'd usually end up having a little chat, they'd see we weren't up to anything we shouldn't be, and be on their way. We literally never had trouble.

From what I recall you live way up in the North Bay somewhere, so I really don't agree with you there. I mean sure, geographically you're close, but the Bay is so diverse that 10 miles takes you to a completely alien culture from the one you were just in. Or do you really believe that Atherton and EPA share the same cultural norms and values? (If you have spent a lot of time living elsewhere in the Bay then cool, I wasn't aware of it.)

Yeah, disagreeing again here. I never tried to paint them as "robin hoods" or give them noble intentions like he supposedly had. I merely said that I appreciated them loving with the police. What I'm trying to advocate for is their civil disobedience and my belief that an occasionally unruly citizenry is a good and healthy thing for the polis. Obviously that discussion doesn't really fit into CA, which is why I'd prefer we took this portion of the discussion to PMs, if you'd really like to continue.

Thanks, but I know what political and social activism is. Again, really not the place to get into it and the police relationship with politicians who try to interfere with them. If you've read anything about the relationship between Chuck Reed and the SJPD then you're aware of how well that is going.

Also I spent a lot of time working with local police in my last job as well as taking classes taught by their officers at one of the JCs in the Bay. I've done ride alongs with them. Some of my friends happen to be local cops and deputies and chippies. There is something utterly broken with police culture in the South Bay and I'm fortunate to have gotten out before getting brainwashed with the rest of them and joining up. It really isn't as simple as saying vote and improve relations.

Yeah, he did get arrested because he was a moron. Never disputed that. I also don't see how it matters.
