When law-abiding citizens are treated like common criminals, can we really say we live in a free society?
Perhaps so, but it’s getting increasingly hard to defend this proposition as video after video shows American citizens doing nothing wrong yet being singled out for mistreatment by law enforcement. There are always bad apples of course, but how many bad apples can there be before they spoil the rest of the bunch?
Take the case of several bikers traveling down a highway in Fort Worth, Texas. Despite their imposing appearances, the bikers are recorded driving peacefully and responsibly as they pass by a police car that had just stopped a truck.
As the motorcycles pass by, the cop exits his vehicle, wielding what appears to be mace. He watches the bikers for a couple seconds before he raises his hand and inexplicably sprays the mace at them, something that could easily have caused an accident.
Thankfully, nobody was hurt, but many were upset, including the Fort Worth police, who promptly pulled the cop from patrol duty.
See video of the incident on the next page:
Glen: Are you serious? They are not doing what… YIELDING WHAT RIGHT-A-WAY? They are bikers riding their bikes down a public street or thoroughfare. They have a right to do that without having chemicals sprayed in their face. We all have the right to do that. Do you intend to have the government ban us from now utilizing a public right-of-way. If you don’t like freedom… it is time for you to move to North Korea. They ban everything.
He should be fired
Still, Shooting Mace At Motorcyclists Is A Crime, Don’t See Any Reason He Is There, Just Macing Bikers I See. That Is Not OK, Needs An$#%&!@*Whipping Done Badly. Wonder Why People Hate Police, Watch This Film
Sharron Tumanello-Stevenson you are truly stupid and should read a drivers Ed book. It is the law in most states that when an emergency vehicle is on the side of the road you yield to it by moving over, that is the law they were breaking that is what my cousin Kent is about the story says they were not breaking any laws. But your a fine democratic voter where facts don’t matter and would rather just attack and sound stupid. I swore an oath to protect and defend the constitution against all enemies Foreign and and in your case Stupid.
