In a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qro4ufIwZ-Q) posted by ScoochLeft (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7Z7Kx4MegLEVzVIx66dUiw) on YouTube, Fort Lauderdale police are seen tackling a cyclist during a Critical Mass cycling event.
Cyclist Dan Littel, was peddling over the Las Olas bridge in Fort Lauderdale, Florida on May 30, 2014 when a police patrol car sped by him and his fellow Critical Mass cyclist.


“Slow down!” Littell shouted at the officer driving erratically, just as he would have done with any other person making the road unsafe for the riders. When the officer ignored the pleas made by the cyclist, 30 year old Littell then began riding in front on the officer’s car, forcing the cruiser to keep pace with the bicyclists.


According to Littell, “There were kids on the ride, anyone could have swerved in. The cop slammed on his brakes to try and get other bikes to hit him, and when the ride slowed down, he tackled me.”


Although the officer’s erratic driving wasn’t caught on camera, fortunately for Littell, the unnecessary police brutality was.
The cyclist, who was only looking out for the safety of his fellow riders, was arrested on charges of resisting arrest and impeding traffic.

Some fellow bikers. This is why cops can get away with beating people. Nobody stands up to them. The sheep peddle away. If 20 of them surrounded the cops, they would back off. It is easy to pick on whitey.

Its a case of reaffirming the point that,"you do not interfere with cops while they are in the process of performing their duty (regardless of what it is)". It is the people that need to reaffirm to the cops "who's boss and who writes the cheque", not the other way around. And it would probably be as easy as Spec mentions ^above^. Though actions like that if they were to increase in frequency, would seriously change the game being played out these days. The first thing people need to do is to rid themselves of the fear imposed by the state and it's agents upon the masses and that is a very tough nut to crack..........

If everyone carried all the time then things might be different. If the dicks ever become accountable for their actions things would change. If there were more lawsuits against the dicks things would change. Until this happens nothing will change and the armaments will increase.

Is this a group of bicyclists that hog up the road and think they can ride 5 wide whenever they please?
