Because one just like this jumped in front of me at a light today

Trigger Warning: I found the language offensive in just the first 3 minutes. As for the politics, I'm just presenting what people said on camera.

I couldn’t make it past 2:16.

That’s one very shallow gene pool in much need of some chlorine.

But what’s to blame here? A few people being screwed up is one thing. But this is tens if not hundreds of thousands from all over the U.S., is it the media, is it the education system, is it nurture and an ingrained family upbringing, etc...

I really don’t know but bloody hell it’s worrying.

Over the years I’ve seen America split so much further on gay rights, transgender rights, abortion rights, gun issues, healthcare issues and so much more.

With social media, etc... people are so much more vocal, being heard by a vastly greater audience.

Everything is a conspiracy with many of these people, ask t hem if that is the case, what is the end game and they sprout so much crap and vile comments on people who have different views to them that you want to scrunch your face up and then shout, ‘what the f**k are you talking about!?’.

I may get hate from this post, but I really don't care any more. I wanted and needed to get it off my chest, whether that's worth anything, I don't know.

If were grading on a scale, I think my fellow Arizonan comes out of this looking pretty good. And I’m almost certain I’ve drank with that guy.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be making motorcycle noises for the rest of the night.

More and more I am thinking the old “union” as it comes to this congregation of ever more dy sfunctional and unlike states has run its course. There’s certainly no competent federal leadership to unite anything.

In the interest of equal time, let’s remember that Burning Man is 25 days away and still happening. Sturgis is right wing burning man.

I feel bad for some of the folks in that video. That young girl was totally strung out and that old mumbly guy probably needs some help.

PS. As someone who has a background in film, the editing makes my eyes water but okay.

Listen, I not going to defend these m orons, but I will defend m otorc yc les.

These folks are cringe worthy ignoram uses on the lowest end of the intelligenc e spec trum. I have crossed paths with 2 separate people while out walking my dog that spew this same crap. I have challenged their rhetoric, which apparently c omes from YT and FB conspiracy propaganda. We are in the midst of a pandemic, mis information should be a criminal offense. Yet, the elected leader of the nation talks nonsense, encouraging others to do the same.

I assure you, this is not an accurate reflection of the motorcycle culture that I have been a part of for more than 45 years. But it is a part, a very small and ugly part of the lowest of the low.

I thought Burning Man was the right wing Burning Man?

I felt the same about the knife kids. They weren’t there for the moto show, they live there.

Burning Man is the left wing’s Burning Man. Unless of course it’s just a coincidence that 1/3 of the population of SF goes randomly into the desert once/year.

I figured it’s cause about 1/3 of San Fran residents are closeted libertarians, hence all the homeless people in that city.

Only the ones with money, and they often aren’t too deep in the closet - “I got mine, you can go fuck yourself” is like an anthem in some groups.

To get Brexit done?

I joke. Still though, I wonder what will happen IF Covid-19 is past us and IF Trump gets re-elected. Will we see a huge horde of educated Americans trying to flee their country? A brain drain if you will? As long as we don’t end up in a deep recession I’m sure other countries will be somewhat welcoming.

Had I been American I would be working hard on learning a second language as well as I can. German, Chinese, Spanish, French, whatever you prefer. The worst thing that could happen is that you have learned a language.

I’m sure that video is enough to tarnish the image of all who ride. I’m not upset about the comment, but I am upset about the video and the damaging e ffect it has on the motorcycle industry, in the USA anyways.

I think alcohol is playing a bigger role in that clip than DNA.

There are morons everywhere, we just have too many people here. Thankfully no one has burned down any cell towers in my AO.

Sturgis has been like this forever. People who think less of motorcyclists as a whole because of sturgis are the same types of people as in this video; closed-minded people full of hate going around stereotyping others who are different than them. People with half a brain realize this isn’t representative of all of us.

These people embarrass me as an American and as a motorcyclist. I hope we can overcome this turbulence without descending too much further.

I worry about the country and the direction it is heading. We no longer are united, and the division doesn’t seem to have a gray area. You’re on one side or the other, middle grounders have fallen into the chasm that divides them. Decency has been lost, respect and civility lost as well.

Common sense has not been very common and truth has a new definition. The world is one craz y place right now, and I firmly believe it’s the res ult of what is happening here.

Sorry for the rant. Hope your weekend is pleasant and uplifting.

A song for your time.

I’m with you on all of that. I try to play unbiased moderate when I talk to people about it, at least somewhat. But even when I don’t take a side, people try to jump down your throat for supporting the enemy. It’s insane, and terrifying. I’m very much a liberal, but I fully support people having their own views and values and know that approaching most people from an opposing side will immediately put them on the defensive. I just wish that even conservatives could see how bad trump is for this country, how his attitude alone is driving tensions higher, without even getting into his policies and past.

Go for a ride. Clear your head. Enjoy your weekend as well, friend.

I did 3 years of German back in school but haven’t retained anything useful, guess I’ll res tart there ;). The thing is, much as I may think about fleeing our descent into Idiocracy , I like this place geographically and geologically too much, specifically west of the Rockies. It’s a great and interesting place, with much to explore. We just have a scourge of dipshits to deal with who are ruining everything right now.
