This picture tells a lot, notice the flag on the cranes on the overpass (you can bet they had no permit for that) Also notice all the people on the overpass and standing on the right side of the road. There are cars stopped on the opposite side at the ramp as well. Many police and troopers helped block traffic for the riders even though they had no permit.
This is a stark contrast to the 25 or so the MMM. You can also bet this scene was played out many time around the city yesterday.
One quote I read was classic it said it was fitting that the Muslims were surrounded by hundreds of thousands of Hogs (Hog being a slang for Harley Davidson Motorcycles)
That last comment is a keeper!
ReplyDeleteThanks Rev Paul, I thought so as well.
DeleteYou know why the MM failed?? Muslims don't like HOGS!! HAHAHA. MM was bound to fail, because they fear all AMERICANS. I would like to see this happen in every city on 9-11. Oh the sound, rolling thunder indeed.
ReplyDeleteRob, no doubt it will spread, thanks.
DeleteThanks for this report. I know, it isn't whirled peas, but it makes my heart happy!
ReplyDeleteJulie, It is good and gives some hope. Thanks.
DeleteNow I call that motorcycle ride totally American!!! Done with pride :-)
ReplyDeleteSandy, absolutely my friend, they are the last American cowboy.
DeleteNote, those aren't cranes they are 100 foot Fire Dept ladder trucks.
ReplyDeleteWeaver, Even better, good catch. Thanks.
Delete100 foot aerial ladder trucks, to be exact. lol
ReplyDeleteI get to climb one when we go home, for old time's sake. But they don't realize I've aged since I retired and will need to be lifted in the bucket. (age is embarrassing)
I knew what you meant by "hog". Joe laughed and said he needed to hear something funny.
Army, Navy, Airforce, Marines, and HAWG RIDERS. The very last remnants of America and getting fewer every day.
Lotta Joy, I bet you can still give 'em a run for their money. Thanks my friend.
ReplyDeleteI saw a snarky little story on the CNN web page whining about their effrontery in riding without a government issued permit.
ReplyDeleteHarry, I bet they would really have had a fit if they knew some of them were carrying concealed weapons because I know some of them were.
Delete880,000 Bikers was the last estimate I heard, and I'd also add they were PATRIOTS!!!
ReplyDeleteOld NFO, not a bad number for a quickly planned event, really only a couple weeks.
