The only thing more useless is a meter maid.
No, I can think of another useless thing... :humm:

Back to the article, im sad to see someone die in a high speed chase, but come on, what was this officer thinking? Did he really think that this guy was going to stop? It's not like he can ram into him to make him stop like they do with cars.

Up until this post, I had only suspected you were a total moron. Now you have removed all doubt.

Dude, not to 'pile on', but you have to really be a d*ck if you can't see what's wrong with that.

Wow...just...wow.......way to raise the bar to an all time low.

Granted, a State Trooper sitting in a speed trap is not my idea of a good time, but I don't wish these guys and gals any ill. And this incident doesn't shed very good light on the motorcycling community.

Per the thread below, he claimed to live in Edmonds, WA. Ironically, (if you can believe it) in that same thread he said he wants to get bike cop training because he "wants to learn from the best." What a troll.

Thanks. I had to use the Force on that one.

OK, maybe it was actually the search engine. It still worked...

I was initially going to type a flip response in anger because I have many friends that are in Law Enforcement but, since everyone else did a great job, here is my own, albeit biased, :twocents: :

There is absolutely no reason to drive 100 mph or more when you're not on a closed race course. It does more harm than good. You're a menace and a danger not only to yourself but everyone around you at those speeds. Even if, and that's a huge IF, you can handle yourself at those speeds, you have no idea what the other people on the road are going to do. All it takes is one pot hole, one piece of debris, one swerve from another driver and it's all over. You're not just risking your own life. You're risking the lives of everyone around you. Even if you're own life is worthless and you don't care to live, think of the innocents that could be hurt.

Ok, my lecture is over.... :soapbox:
