Patriotic Bikers Denied DC Permit for 9/11 Will Ride Anyway

A group of motorcyclists who planned to ride through Washington DC have been denied a permit for the rally.The purpose was to remember the victims of 9/11 and honor the armed forces who fought and in response to the Million Muslim March.

If the bikers had received permits, it would have provided them a straight-through drive to travel quickly on roads that would have been blocked to cross-traffic. So, what would have been an hour ride will now be an all-day affair.

The government is being very politically correct, what reason is there to deny the bikers a permit but the other rally gets a permit.



The permit would have made it easier for them but now they still plan to ride and it won't be easier for the residents and businesses though.


Denied a permit by the nation’s capital for a special ‘non-stop’ ride through town with a waiver for red lights, stop signs and other traffic controls, organizers of the ’2 Million Bikers to DC’ ride to remember 9/11 are undeterred.

Just riding on a public street doesn’t take any special permission after all, even if you have a million people doing it. They just sought the permit to make life easier on the city’s residents and businesses.
So the ride will go on. It’s just going to take a little longer.

Both groups should be allowed a permit and exercise freedom of speech but it is wrong to deny one while saying yes to the other.

Should the bikers have been given a permit?

At least one of the articles directly says why they were denied a permit. It's due to limited police resources. If they're going to allow the hundreds of thousands of bikers that are supposedly coming to ignore red lights then they'd need to have a ton of police resources available to shut down intersections and redirect traffic. That would be a logistical nightmare. And despite the claim of it being an hour if they had a permit, the number they are aiming and expecting to get I don't see how it could possibly only take an hour.
 
There is no fucking way they would get anywhere near 2 million bikers to participate in that.

Not surprised they didn't get the permit.
 
The city better hope there's not the same turn out that the Rolling Thunder "Ride to the Wall" sees just before Memorial day. I think last few years has seen several hundred thousand bikes.
 
While I don't want muslims around and even though these people should be allowed to do this without D.C. interfereing...

...none of that changes the fact there weren't 3k people killed in operation 9/11. A maximum of 600 IMO, I think the death toll could've been as low as 250.

I was reading a good question yesterday... If al-Qaida was so powerful, then why didn't they go after Clinton, Bush, Cheney, PNAC, or any of the other leading neocons?

It's just pure ignorance with a lot of stupidity to think that bin Laden was in any way responsible.

I've seen some huge... huge... bike rallies/rides. And being denied the permit is going to result in 2x as many people showing up.

This. I don't think they will get 2 million but this should help increase the numbers. Gotta love the hypocrisy, if there was 1 million Muslims wouldn't that also post a problem with logistics?

Holy crap, are you really like the 9/11 version of a holocaust denier? Jesus can this finally be the reason to ban this nutcase?

I once thought the OP was the dumbest bag of hammers on these forums.

I have been proven wrong.

Issue being: the resources were already allocated to the first-comers.

Sorry, you think these bikers would have given a flip if the muslims had not organized in the first place? No, of course not: In response, they call themselves "patriots" and create a fake event, to which they likely knew they would already be denied due to the logistics, because they hate brown people. Period. This is not a "Ride for 9-11 patriots blah blah blah" event; it is an "How dare them brown people that come from some desert over thar march on our streets!" event.

now they make fake news out of it, and generate more redneck rage, because that is their MO. Sock puppets like you just swallow it up and sow the seeds of fauxrage.
 
And to the people harping on anarchist..... Look I'm not saying I agree with the guy, but these conspiracy theorists have ended up at least partially based in reality a number of times.


As tough as it may be to swallow, people questioning these things are extremely healthy for our society. We don't need to be a group who just blindly accepts everything that we're fed.

Anarchist has some documented mental health issues (they can be found in other threads on this board if you search hard enough) and is, in general, is mostly harmless. Incorruptible on the other hand has no such reason for being as incapable of rational thought as he is.

Yes with these comments and his "questions" he has exceeded the OP. I'm sure the victim's families would be happy to hear that Anarchist420 doesn't believe they actually had a family member killed.

I disagree that it's racist. The people that were organizing this march were truthers and said the US persecutes Muslims and doesn't treat them fair. They can protest this but why on 9/11? So the bikers are holding a counter rally.
 
Incorruptible said:
Agree. It's typical of them.

The Muslims have the right to march but give that same right to the bikers.
Click to expand...

Have no problem with giving the same right to the bikers IF they follow the right process in the right time frame for an event of the size they claim they are planning for. It doesn't appear they did that. The government isn't playing favorites just saying you need to follow the rules.

Because, freedom of speech, that's why.
Don't like it? Move to a country that doesn't have it and hate on Muslims there.

I'm pointing out a fact as to why Anarchist behaves the way he does, HE HIMSELF is the one that posted most of the material I'm talking about.
The admins and moderators are aware of his condition and generally let him be.
I have nothing against Anarchist, he seems like a fairly intelligent guy who because of his condition doesn't look at the world quite the same way as everyone else. It's better to let him be with his ideas instead of making fun of them like I would with other people in this thread.

Yeah I get it, I'm not saying you're wrong or against rules or anything like that. Just as a decent human it doesn't seem like something that should be brought up, not in person, not online.

FWIW if you don't agree with him I don't really think his behaviour really needs any explanation.
