Panic in Time Square - motorcycle backfire

Post by DrYouth » Wed Aug 07, 2019 9:16 am

I guess this was inevitable.

Hardened New Yorkers and wide-eyed tourists alike -- still reeling from the news of mass shootings in Texas and Ohio -- were sent scrambling through crowded Times Square on Tuesday night when a backfiring motorcycle was mistaken for an active shooter.

Taking bets on who will be the first Democrat politician to suggest banning motorcycles.

Maybe people should require a motorcycle licence to drive a motorcycle and have to pass an actual test to be allowed to drive one on city streets... a licence which could be taken away if say you had a medical condition that made it dangerous to drive one...
I bet the MRA would lobby against that though.

Well it clearly would violate the constitutional amendment the right to keep and ride motorcycles.

Is there a constitutional right to not getting shot like fish in a barrel?
Might be worth considering it.
