The cyclist was allegedly swerving in and out of lanes to block traffic behind him before we saw him. The cop also falsified the report, saying that the bike rider intentionally swerved towards the officer with intent to hit him. Who knows if he actually was actually interrupting traffic or not. The rider was charged with assault and resisting arrest. Good thing they had video.

hmmm is it me or do the cops always have an excuse.... like "we didnt mean to shove a plunger up his ass" or shoot a man holding his wallet 40 times!!

Why also is it that these CM's always first say it is the cyclists....maybe it is.... maybe it is not....

You are right about the video the cops can not get away with as much since we are all televised.

You are all wrong, cops take an oath and can't break that! ha. the fact that he lost his badge makes me feel slightly better. his dad (he is a third generation ignorant fucking pig) stands by his son; even with the video he stands by his son, ha. does this disprove darwinism yet?

Bello Velo said...

Nope it does not disprove it, there is the dinosaur problem.

is that a Nolan reference?

A discussion of primate characteristics is often included during units on human evolution. One of the characteristics most often identified as being typically primate and having played a role in human evolution is the opposable thumb. It is argued that the eye-hand coordination made possible by both stereoscopic vision and a grasping hand permitted primates to exploit arboreal habitats in a more efficient fashion. That same hand is used by humans today to manipulate tools and, in turn, the environment with a great deal of dexterity.

When students first hear or read about the opposable thumb during discussions of human evolution, they may perceive it as an anatomical fact with little seeming importance. In this activity, students will discover which of their simplest daily activities are possible only because of their opposable thumbs, which activities take longer without the use of an opposable thumb, and what sort of human activities would not be likely in the absence of an opposable thumb.
