So there really is no incentive for a criminal to not carry a gun around. It's sad. And it will get worse here in NYC before it gets better. But that's a story for another thread.
And again my heart does go out to the paralyzed rider. I don't know what his involvement was in this rally, but it may just be that he decided to go along for a ride with people he didn't even know, never rode with before and had no idea of any bad intentions some of the riders may have had.

That is a hopeful thought Dunkel for the paralyzed rider, he was in the wrong place at the wrong time as well. But if you signed up for this kind of ride where you knew the riders would be blocking on-ramps, removing license plates, etc, you know some shit could definitely go down. This wasn't a "Sunday Funday" kind of cruise in the back roads.
