They are pretty sweet as well, but I’m more a Triumph Bonnie or Scrambler guy in a lighter bike.

I still have an unmet religious obligation to own a Harley, Sportsters are too small, Softails and Glides too big. Maybe I’ll buy a Honda and put HD stickers on it.

is Mr.Durden.







Defense doesn’t have to prove that. Open carry in Georgia is legal. It’s legal to ask someone to stop and talk on the street. It’s legal to do it while holding a firearm. Prosecution is going to need to show that he pointed the shotgun at the jogger or verbally threatened him.

Bikes are not real expensive.

Maybe you should just buy one. And then ride it.

No, no, no, JoeBob. The experts here have officially declared both hillbillies were ‘brandishing’ their open-carry firearms.

The video does not show that, but the experts just filled in the blanks.

Priorities, I’m racing the clock, I don’t wanna put a nickel out of line till I’m out of debt. The bicycle trips are racing the clock too, an inexpensive and worthy endeavor, while I still can.

So until then I’ll just whine about it when the topic comes up.


.....and the Kid has told me several times I’m not allowed to buy one 🙂. Too dangerous.

As happens far to frequently on the campfire, this thread, long ago, slid off into the septic tank.

You could very well be right. But, from what you saw on the video did the black jogger have the right to resist being accosted and cut off by the gun wielding person?

I was accosted by a team of men, all armed, demanding I stop and talk to them, tell them what I'm doing in the neighborhood, where I live, etc..

I was taking my typical evening stroll, and I was a few blocks from my home. I guess it was more than ten years ago. Quite dark out. I turned a corner, and from four blocks away I saw bright headlights lighting me up, to the point I was blinded by them. I decided to go one block further before turning south, so as to avoid walking into these bright lights. However, then I heard tires screeching, and the headlights were quickly barreling down on my location ... two or three vehicles (been a while, so I can't remember which). As they bore down on me, I quickly stepped off the road onto the grass of someone's home, hoping to avoid being run down. The vehicles all stopped in front of me, and several men came out with guns, charged at me demanding I identify myself, and why I was out walking in this area. They also demanded my address, and wanted to know why I suddenly changed direction when I saw their vehicles a few blocks away.

I told them all the answers to their questions, including why I changed direction, and they all came over, smiled, shook my hand, and apologized if they startled me . They were all uniformed cops, in marked patrol vehicles, looking for a criminal last seen in the area.

Your comparison of your incident with the "jogger" incident in question is basically comparing apples and space rocks. You quoted me and left out the very pertinent part of my question which described the people accosting said "jogger" as "civilian and non law enforcement". Sort of dishonest to quote a person out of context if the part you leave out changes the question in a major way. I don't mind out of context if the most important thrust of the question is not omitted.


Patriotism (and religion) is the last refuge of a scoundrel.

I’m passing this car stopped in line and these people in it start screaming “Mr Bird! Mr Bird!”, it was some students from three years back, now going to college in Corpus.

I said what I always say to students/former students in that situation. I pointed at the bicycle and told them that if they stayed in school and studied hard, one day they might get to ride one of these too 🙂


So . . . . . . . . . . . your one of the people that I see how close I can get my mirror to without actually dinging them?

TRH telling a story about being stopped by cops, and compare that experience to what happened on this video? Bizarre...

I wonder if he’d feel differently if the two whites were wearing yamakas? 😲
