I can't imagine being a motorcyclist in that crowd.
If it had been me (I always carry a gun in my console, first thing I tell the cop if I get pulled) a few of those guys would have been dead today. Take a few shots, jam the accelerator.
People are ridiculous. I bet half of them didn't even know what they were protesting. I sure don't. Their little 'commentary' sounded like they were up and arms about something though.
No cops during the whole ordeal either.

I think you're off by a couple hundred or so.

I have a great Idea!!
Since these guys have no respect for property, lets give all their property to Illegal immigrants (You know, the ones who come here to build a better life for themselves)
We can ship these jokers off to mexico or maybe Cuba (there's even a place for them to stay in Guantanamo Bay!!)

Years ago I read this book that analyzed the "mob mentality". I still don't get it. It just feels twisted to even witness something like that. I'm gonna go find a happy thread to read...
Cheers,

Mob mentality is a bunch of bs. People do things they normally wouldn't because they believe they won't be caught because it is unlikely they will be the one arrested out of everyone in the mob. Who ever heard of personal responsibilty, oh wait a minute, anytime anyone does something wrong, it is because of their environment. How silly of me to forget that.

Ummm, there is personal responsibility..... If you get caught, don't blame the government for putting it there, thus causing a chain of events that led to its destruction. Nice try though
