Deal with it dumb****, go borrow some quarters for the bus. The San Francisco police said the same thing when they decided to crack down on Critical Mass rides some years ago. The city was sued and lost. When the city refused to pay and appealed, the next judge up the chain doubled the settlement as a warning to the city to stop playing games. And the City did not have to pay anything on that either, but you left that fact out. That's not what I heard, but I take it you admit that at least two judges ruled against the city. Idiotic - bicycle riders can easily stop and carry the bikes to the side to let an emergency vehicle through. I'm sure nearly everyone in a critical mass ride would do that to expedite a fire truck or an ambulance or a police car responding to some sort of emergency or crime. And if anyone didn't I'd expect the others to have a word with the dude. NYC CM did NOT do that during the convention and blocked in two emergency vehicles for 15 min, who were responding to life threating critical injuries, that is why the City is ****ed at CM. CM is a bunch of idiots. I don't believe that - produce a citation to some credible source. Nonsense. Permits are typically required for certain parades and precessions. Nonsense, a CM ride is intentionally disruptive, with the point to get arrested. We've had these rides in San Francisco for 15 years or more, and they are not particularly disruptive, and (with the exception of one incident) people are not getting arrested. If one person was interfering with the legitimate functions of the police, by all means arrest him, but if he was merely on the road and the officer didn't have a siren on, then the officer can wait in traffic like everyone else, just like he would do if following a car. Says you. Not the Cops. Officers will wait in traffic like everyone else unless there is some emergency, in which case they will use a siren or flashing lights. The police cannot arrest someone for not being able to read an officer's mind - the officer has to make his or her intention known. I've yet to see a driver pull of the road to let a police car by just because the officer might be in a hurry to reach the nearest donut shop. -- My real name backwards: nemuaZ lliB |

You choose to deny they happen. Which makes you a lier. That means that EVERY DAY motor vehicle drivers cause INFINITELY more accidents. So keep your bicycles out of the street. Where's the outrage?

So, they should have been a demonstration to block traffic There was no mention from the NYPD about them "blocking traffic". The riders say that once police threatened them with arrest, they got off their bikes and began to walk away from the rest of the group. But they were arrested anyway, they say, and their bikes were loaded onto a truck and taken away. Police said the were guilty too, and rightfully rounded them up. "Police said"....no probable cause? Other riders say they locked their bikes but that officer cut the chains with power saws and took them. The police have FULL RIGHTS to do so. To sieze property illegally, without cause? "I watched as my bike lock was cut by a saw by the NYPD," Jaimie Favaro, a protestor whose bike was confiscated, said at a news conference Sunday. "I use my bike daily for commuting, and I am absolutely devastated about the illegal theft of my bicycle by the NYPD." You take the risk, you get the ****. Deal with it dumb****, go borrow some quarters for the bus. Yes, Comrade. About 200 riders showed up for Friday's ride, and 37 people were arrested. Good, but the Police need to do better, go for at least 50% next time. Critical Mass organizes large rides through Manhattan on the last Friday of every month to protest pollution produced by vehicle traffic. BULL**** - CM Blocks Traffic, emergancy vehicles it is Bicycles VS CARS stupid. Please cite. The city and the group are involved in a court battle over whether permits are needed for the rides. Permits are required, because the rides cause accidents. Like drunk cops? http://www.nynewsday.com/mynews/ny-n...81,print.story Cop faces new charges Detective indicted on felony assault as well as DWI in Staten Island crash that injured two women BY DARYL KHAN STAFF WRITER March 29, 2005 A detective praised for his work at Ground Zero was initially charged with misdemeanor drunken driving and drug possession after an October crash in which two women were injured on Staten Island, officials said yesterday. Five months later, a Staten Island grand jury has indicted Detective Daniel Massanova, 44, on a long list of charges, including several felonies and misdemeanor drug possession and drunken driving, for swerving into oncoming traffic and slamming into the women's car on Oct. 29, according to court documents. Massanova had a blood alcohol level of .11 - way above the legal limit of .08 - and a bag of drugs, including amphetamines, at the time of accident, according to court records. He was issued a desk appearance ticket while he recovered from a broken hip. Desk appearance tickets are typically issued in minor incidents and allow a suspect to avoid spending a night in jail. Jennifer Cornier, 24, and Dawn Alexander, 29, whose car was allegedly struck by Massanova, are still recovering from what their lawyer called "life altering injuries." "It's a horrific tragedy here," said Laurence Tarowsky. "Their injuries are devastating. They're two young girls whose lives will never be the same." Part of the delay in upgrading the charges stemmed from Massanova's own injuries, a police spokesman said. But once Massanova was released from the hospital, he was not arrested, instead getting the desk appearance ticket. When Massanova returned to duty on Dec. 16, he was suspended for 30 days. He is now assigned to desk duty pending the criminal case. A Staten Island grand jury indicted Massanova Friday on felony charges of assault, vehicular assault and misdemeanor charges of criminal possession of a controlled substance and driving while intoxicated. Massanova, who could face seven years in jail if convicted of the felony charges, is scheduled to be arraigned tomorrow. According to court documents, Massanova, who works in the First Precinct in TriBeCa, slammed head-on into the car containing Cornier and Alexander as he tried to pass another vehicle at Richmond Road and Otis Avenue. Cornier, who was driving, suffered breaks to her left leg, right foot and left hand, as well as facial fractures, Tarowsky said. She has undergone two surgeries for her hand and knee, and still walks with crutches. Alexander, mother of a 1 1/2-year-old daughter, underwent three surgeries to her left hand and wrist. Massanova was taken to Staten Island University Hospital. There, an emergency room worker cut open his pant leg and found a bag containing bottles of Percocet, Xanax and Adderall, an amphetamine, according to court documents. He did not have a prescription. "You know we get together once a month to have this small action of peace and an alternative lifestyle that gets pretty violently challenged by the powers of the city," said William Laviano, whose bike was also seized. Which it should have as he was blocking a cop car, and screaming at the cop. Proof that he was? The NYPD says it confiscated 50 bikes in connection with a law violation. Police say bikes used in violation of the law will be taken regardless if any connection to a protest. Good policy! Keep maggot brained CM ers away from the rest of us who have to ride in the streets for a living. Really? Your alleged "riding for a living" is taken place at the same time as CM rides? -- "This notion that the United States is getting ready to attack Iran is simply ridiculous.
