weapons on a bike?

[-Holiday]

It's pretty easy to punch a hole in a tire, even through the belts with a sharp object.

have you tried it? I have. It didnt work. What did you use?

As for you, storysunfolding:

Uh-huh. Right. You're the moron who crashed his motorcycle and crippled himself. I'm willing to give you the benefit of the doubt, let's just pretend your mind was fine until you crashed and damaged your brain.

For reading comprehension you seemed to miss the passenger in an automobile that had the airbag break my arm. But sure, I guess it was close enough.

And again- maybe your girl plays football, maybe she's good at it, but to break one opponent's bone a game (almost) with clean hits starting at the age of 13 and a half... no, I'm not buying that. With protective gear what it is, having spent years on a rescue squad at football games, with a father/stepmom in orthopedics and my current preparation for med school - I can't see that as possible. Especially for a 168 pound girl.

I did it through a motorcycle tire on Sept 22nd as part of a project to repair a tire puncture. I went straight through the middle of the tread, and only used a "decent sized" phillips head screwdriver.

so i guess you're assuming the sidewall on an amotorcycle is the same as on a car/truck?

i tried it on a truck tire at the junkyard, that was mounted on the vehicle and had air in it. Go try that and let me know how that works out for you.

Sniff, sniff…I smell bull.

- he's killed at least 2 people

Hmmm? Only two? Four on two occasions. They shot first, I shot better. Plus no telling how many in Viet Nam. Again, you demonstrate a total lack of ability in reading comprehension. Maybe you could try Sylvan Learning Centers?

My experience with soldiers who have been in combat is they are usually reluctant to talk about it, even to those who were alongside them at the time. qwerty, you appear to be proud of killing, and I notice you have mentioned these exploits on more than one occasion.

This is a motorcycle forum not a gun forum. So, please let’s put away the 45.

Why mess around with a screwdriver, a little folder does wonders.

Now if you'll exuse me I have to go have dinner with the President on the Moon.

That should thoroughly end the qwerty argument. Congrats Holiday, that was beautiful.


And I think we have arrived at.... Weapons on a bike are a personal issue as much as wearing safety gear. Whichever way you go you are either doing the right thing or a total moron for doing it....depending on who you talk to.

Agreed?

Ohnoes! Helmet discussion/argument/name calling match in 5... 4... 3... 2... 1...

I have to agree re: a weapons thread.

The OP stated he didn’t think he needed a gun and was asking what else could be considered a weapon and if he needs one.

He didn’t ask how many people any of us had killed.

The thread was okay, though soapbox-ish, until qwerty entered with his boring war stories. I don’t see they had any relevance.

BTW you ain’t an asshat, yet.
