Earlier this week Bush was being escorted accross Hickham AFB in Hawaii.
THere was a rainfall occuring, and conditions were rather slick.
There were a couple accidents that happened when the motorcycles escorting the President's Motorcade
came accross slick areas and a couplkle of the Officer's motorcycles went down.

Ouch, that's horrible. Seemed preventable? Rainfall = use police jeeps instead? Best wishes to his family and brothers in the force.

And, just how, is this incident even newsworthy?

Looks like a normal hapinstance occurence to me.

A police officer looses his life in a tragic accident, and you stupid assholes have no respect -
nor seem to really give a damn, for the individual who died in the line of duty.

Petty, fvcking petty.

To be fair, not all of us responded in the manner of character you depict in this comment. Though I agree concerning those who trolled this thread.

Understood - those 'offenders' know who they are.

For example 'Why is this Newsworthy', or 'Blame Bush'

How often has a Motorcycle Officer died in the escort of a Presidential Motorcade?
How often have there been 3 motorcycles go down during that escort?

I don't recall it ever happening before, although there are daily incidents with
Motorcycle Officers.

I don't think a single person has seriously suggested that Bush had anything to do with it. It's worth mentioning, just because it's so rare for accidents to happen in the President's motorcade.
