388 arrests, huh? The article doesn't mention how many thousands of bikers were there. Usually in those small towns they simply take the arrestees for the misdemeanors before the judge who fines them and then they immediately let the detainees go. That's usually the system they use on tourists to fund the police dept. It might have been that 38 people were arrested 10 times each in revolving door fashion.
If it had been an equal number of cowboys for a big rodeo I'd bet you'd have 3,880 arrests.
that's because it wasn't a mayor or congressman driving. just an ordinary man...$1,000,000...what he did was wrong and he should pay the price, what the rich connected boys did was the SAME and they should have paid the price.
Nice to see the GPTB and babyboomer generation up to their usual behavior
Do you think in 20 years there will still be middle-aged men dressed up in biker costumes still showing up at Sturgis? I don't think so...Just a hunch its a baby boomer thing..
My bother-in-law used to be a deputy Sheriff in a near by Wyoming town... He loved pulling Sturgis duty so he could kick some pathetic drunken baby boomers ass...
The Harley image ya gotta love it. Right longride?
Doubt it. Cheyenne Frontier days never has this much baby boomer acting like a idiot behavior.. When is the last time you went to a rodeo? My guess is never.
Jeez, I thought we were bad in Canada for letting DUI's off. I guess it's not any better in the US. 6 times; perhaps a pattern? In Canada the Lawyers and Judges seem to be on crack; they're dismissing solid cases because the suspects shoes could have been in disrepair, that's why he tripped. Not the fact that he'd consumed a couple of 26oz' ers.
The AMA used to say that 99% of the motorcycling public were law abiding, and 1% were the trouble makers. Well, Sturgis attracts about 500,000 people and when 388 arrests are considered it's actually .078%, so I guess we are making a bit of progress lately. Sounds pretty lame to me.
Today is my birthday! I'm going to get duded up like a baby booming middle aged cowboy Harley riding 1% and act like a idealistic moron. yeeeeeehhhhaaaaaawwwwww!!
you are on fire today, calf scrambler.But I bet you haven't done much more than try to take the handkerchief off the nannygoat's neck with the other toddlers. But I know you have a brother-in-law who could stump train some calves or something, which qualifies you as an expert in this category as well.
LOL! Thats funny. My B-day was last week and wasn't able to act like that...so I'll make up for it this weekend when I go to the track (I won't act like an idealistic moron, but will drink)
