I greatly fear where this country is heading,

So do I

we have a communist ideologue as president or a Muslim as president, or even a gay man as president; although we currently have all three, it's the fact that he is being allowed to destroy the very soul of our nation and the majority of Americans remain silent or ambivalent.

That is total Tea party bullshit. The soul of this country is being destroyed by moneyed nazis. One only has to look at the insane amount of dollars pouring into every election to know Democracy is being bought and co-opted by the .001% who are taking a bigger piece of the pie every day, leaving less and less for those who actually create the wealth. And while the leeches at the bottom lay about demanding their share, the amount they bleed off is miniscule compared to the oligarchs who really run the world. Meanwhile, as all the money is being beat out of the middle of the economy, generations are seeing less and less future in work and the American work ethic is dying. Some money nazi saying Americans need to work harder, work longer hours and be more productive is what's called a self-fulfilling prophesy.

The American colleges are more a commie 5-year plan kind of idiotitutions you send your kids to, and here is the result. His father was a muz, but he sat there for how many years hearing, 'godamn america, godamn ameri... where you going Beerock?' Even if gay; who cares if he beats off under the white house desk... to a men at work lunch pale, you are talking about my prez!

Move to fucking greece and enjoy their economy, you, you sit around and wait for olives to ripen, you, you anit-American fear of what? Donny is going to grab the votes and put those to work is why they are scared of the Trump Card. Bring back America like a capitalist not a commie 8 year plan went to shit you go looking beerack of crimes against the dec, the consti, freedom of jenner, no law shall abridge and all those trampled on is one piece of paper, not a book of rule and off with your head.

What's a tea party? Elephant, mule, tea bag? Hang my chad?

Capitalism in moderation is just fine. Capitalism gone wild was the cause of the every recession that's ever been. Remember, the 2nd-largest capitalist economy is Communist China. For those who have feared Communism since the McCarthy days, it's now fully integrated with capitalism and not something separate. Money Nazism was integrated previously. the only ism to fear is totalitarianism in any of it's forms. It will be the result when a tiny minority of uber-wealthy in America, Europe and Asia get their way. It's coming.....

NO !!!!! Money is the root of all evil and if that is so then who is the most evil of them all.

---

Danno,

Bill Gates is doing what with his money?
Buffet is doing what with his money?
Those are the wealthy and are they evil?
Bill is a dropout philanthropist.
Warren played with numbers where dad worked is that ponzie scheme called capitalism.
Ayn Rand is a commie rat who wrote a few books; go read them. "Build" me a case (pun intended).

PooTin is a tin soldier commie gone gangster; riddled with graft/black market is the economy. Go live there. Plenty of places like mexico you can move to and everywhere I turn is a 'corruption of greed,' except here in ponzie land can you become rich... well? How many foreigners come over with nothing and they become wealthy is only here in the USA, the evil country.

---

I am an American, I don't have to go any fucking place else any more than you do. You and the other Tea Partiers and Ayn Rand worshipers can leave if you don't like the place. I was not toe one who brought up dissatisfaction with current events over a tap on the helmet. How anyone can know what's wrong with the world and America and not know what a simple tap on the helmet means is beyond my scope. Try reading the complete post instead of picking an individual sentence and applying it universally. What is this, Fox News? What are the Koch Brothers doing with their money? What is Rex Sinquefield doing with his money? They certainly aren't giving it away like Bill and Melinda Gates or Warren Buffet. They are using it to buy elections. And ignorant morons are voting for their toadies. Are you one of them?

Jack Welch (Ronald Reagan's mentor) once said, "Ideally, corporations should be based on barges and towed from port to port, anchoring wherever labor costs are cheapest, taxes are lowest and regulations are nonexistant." Is the the America you want? It's on the way, so you should be ecstatic.

When Jack Welch left GE, the stock tanked. Why? A decision maker who could run corporate and make it profitable. As far as Rex goes, go ask an la county educator about the school system here... nuff said. I guess you are saying to close down Wharton school of business, take a que from a commie and have a 5-year plan ready for all of the farm lands and that expected beat last year's harvest. Gather everyone from their sectors, herd them into the fields and chant, 'grow-grow-grow' like the zombies of north korea. I understand your side of the sky is falling issue(s).

Never said we didn't know what it meant. just that its illegal in the land of the free. I just don't think free men would let something as simple as a tap on a helmet be illegal.

I'm going to Upper Michigan where men kill and eat wild game and drink beer and chew tobacco. We tap on our helmets any damn time we feel like it!

I guess I better loose the fairy wings.

hunting = not without a permits, license, season
drink beer = only at home, public drinking illegal
tobacco= insurance rates thru the roof.

have at it Michigan man

---

Get all your nieces to give you their deer tag and you can be eating venison year round.

Beer drinking in public? As long as you don't go starting trouble pulling your hunting rifle out, public drunkeness is highly acceptable.

Tobacco, lie. you'll probably die from something else.

We got hillbillies up nort, too.

Capitalism is the worst system except for all the others. The communist, gay, Muslim direction we are currently heading in is not the answer, history proves this, nothing new under the sun.

Another cryptic, silly, meaningless post from the guy who tries to impress everybody with how smart he is by saying things nobody can understand.

What I am saying is that when profit is God, only God will profit. The manipulations of the moneyed elite for maximizing profit while producing nothing is what got us where we are-on the downhill slide until our standard of living is the equivalent of that of Malaysia or even China. There are plenty of kazillionaires in both countries and zero wealth at the middle and bottom of their economies. In China, people with advanced technical degrees are living 10 to a room and working in fish markets because there is nothing else they can do.

First post in the thread

I was out on a ride this morning and an approaching motorcyclist tapped the top of his helmet. He was wearing fluorescent gear and was on a sport tourer, not sure but I think it might have been a cop. What does the helmet tap mean?-Kruz

Never said we didn't know what it meant. just that its illegal in the land of the free. I just don't think free men would let something as simple as a tap on a helmet be illegal.-Badzx14r

Maybe you should start at the beginning, read a little bit and try not to turn a motorcycle forum into a political forum. It may be illegal in Texas, but it isn't in Illinois.

If flashing lights to warn of speed traps is legal, a tap on the helmet must surely be also.

History is just the written lies of the winners of the wars. The dead don't write.

And, if this were actually true, what would it have to do with a tap on the helmet? Absolutely nothing.

I have seen several good motorcycle websites ruined by so-called "conservative" posters turning them into their personal political blogs. Once half the registered members have left, never to return, administrators see the light and ban politics. It should happen here before it's too late.

Yep, as whack as I can make it. Just to get your goat.

from the guy who tries to impress everybody with how smart he is by saying things nobody can understand.

Coming from a pseudointellectual, did we bang into a mirror is a political runner upper poster? Stop posting poli, tap the head instead. Are you a bike mechanic doing this all your life? So if we were sipping and chewing shop talk over lunch, we'd fuel/comp/spark a lot of interest experiencing what we found in the field. Discuss and share the hindsight of the odd things about those 3 fundamental variables. And now to be schooled with the different animal. I'm saying things, giving you key words, like be on the same page as me so we can brickackle some shop speak. Why, how unscholarly you are not on the same page, danno? So the things no one understands is yannih is being schooled about that processor you should be versed in. Where were you when shit like this comes up? Clueless, because you should understand how the processor works, how the bike works. I did not write the shop manuals. Why where you not up Ivan's ass years ago, looking for answers the first time you heard the abstract... Tea aRe wE on the same page now?

You need to come up with a better plan to keep the economy rolling, or be stuck with a bulb forever or an LED down the road; you are not even close how fast tech is moving so obsolete. If you can breath thru it... oh you'll want that piece of hardware, won't you? You're on one right now. When it breaks, keep the economy going or live in a cave, pray for rain, do the dance, fend for food, build a fire... Protect your turf, etc. I don't understand your mentality living in the 21st century?

When no one agrees with you, it means you're wrong.

See danno? To a knee-che like me, I could look at my own reality check and see it go two ways. When I see your reality becomes that wrinkled up clump of who comes up wit dishit? My reality check becomes clear when I hear, if I'm not agreeing wit chew, I must be chewing you a new asshole. Maybe something will siphon in there is some of the reality window you need to look thru.

Fuck you, Jimmy. Tell your wife to take some target practice so her next shot does the job right. I guess she finally got fed up with you shitting on her. Your rotten life is nothing but a series of lies and cover-ups. When fucks like you don't agree, I know I'm right.

Obstruction of Justice

A criminal offense that involves interference, through words or actions, with the proper operations of a court or officers of the court.

The integrity of the judicial system depends on the participants' acting honestly and without fear of reprisals. Threatening a judge, trying to bribe a witness, or encouraging the destruction of evidence are examples of obstruction of justice. Federal and state laws make it a crime to obstruct justice.

you can argue it out in court
