magley64 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) March/rally/organized gathering =/= stopping all traffic in DC for a fart parade... Yawn... On a side note I DO hate "bikers"... regardless of their religion. Edited September 9, 2013 by magley64 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

magley64 Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 Is farting the real issue here? No, the issue here is closing traffic to the general public to allow for a parade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnG Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 I thought that the issue was the peaceful demonstration of a group of motorcyclists in opposition to a group of muslims demonstrating on the anniversary of the muslim attack on our country? I see no reason why the riders would not be granted a non-stop pass thru the city, but I'm glad that they weren't granted that pass. Now their presence will have a greater impact on the area because of the flood of bikes stopping and starting thru the city. Good for them, and wish I were going to be there. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they wanted to have a peaceful demonstration that didn't involve shutting down a number of public roads, I'm willing to bet dollars to pesos that it would have been approved...

JohnG Posted September 9, 2013 Report Share Posted September 9, 2013 Unfortunately, the short-sighted powers that be decided that, instead of shutting a few public roads for two hours to allow the demonstrators to pass, they will now have to contend with the flood of demonstrators on bikes grid-locking the city for the majority of the day. Access to public roads cannot be denied to the law abiding public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't you think it's wrong to stereotype an entire culture/religion because of a few radicals? I don't think it was a Muslim attack on our country, but rather a terrorist attack. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NO! it was muslims, obama is a secret muzlum, all muzlums hate 'merica... only christian nation loved by god, and hated by izlams cuz of our freedom and real true god. silly logical argument that islam was used as an excuse by the terrorists and a scapegoat by the media ...pshh Islam is liable for 9/11 the same way christianity is liable for abortion clinic bombings, everything done by the KKK, and every hate crime against gays...

I for one am trying to go on this "fart parade", but not sure I can get away from work that long.
