Chicago Police brutality/abuse (warning - graphic content...)

As the title implies, if you are one with...finer sensibilities (as some who commented on my "sex on a plane" post), you may want to avoid this article.


Homan Square detainee: I was sexually abused by police at Chicago 'black site' | US news | The Guardian

Thanks for posting this link, you have helped me finally come to a decision on something I've been thinking about for months. It seems in the last year or so we have apparently been fortunate enough here on tw200forum.com to attract a membership that have interests that many of us have never been exposed to before. And quite honestly, at least in my opinion, some of the crap that shows up here, on a motorcycle forum, should probably not.

Back to my long thought about decision. I have decided that as long as the various forums I follow allow crap like your link, which is completely non-relevant to the purpose of the forum, I'm out. If the forum moderators will not moderate, I will "self" moderate.

So long guys, it was great while it lasted.

Um... It was in the Off Topic area...

Could have chosen not to read it.

I never read the Guardian, I prefer Drudgereport.com and Truthrevolt.org

Giving some of the murdering, vile, gang banging trash, that infests Chicago.....many of the Suns a Beaches need some good old fashion killin'

Where the Hell is Qwerty when you want him to flame some of this sh*t?

[plumbstraight]

After reading that it is no wonder to me that they are killing cops in Chicago. It's getting to where the chant is trust the badge no more.

As Smitty mentioned, this is posted in the "off topic" section of this forum. Off topic meaning it will not be relevant to the primary subject-matter of the forum, the Yamaha TW 200 motorcycle... If you feel the need to leave the forum because of an off topic thread posted in the off topic section, then by all means feel free to do so, sir.

Mike, (longdistancerider) no need to go bro, just don't read the off topic. KJ, no need to be so harsh bro, just remind him it's off topic.

"..Where the Hell is Qwerty when.....?"

You don't really mean that,do ya Hoot?

Last intel has him over at the TwoWheel Texans channel,instructing the masses there as to how they should behave,and above all, respect him and his vast,vast knowledge of....everything. With twice the membership there,he'll be a while.....hopefully.

Don't be so tough KJ!
Don't leave Mike!
I read most of the posts that are in the bottom. I have certain favorite posters and some that I don't particularly care for and I am sure that there are a few folks that don't agree with me either. I have read many of KJ's posts, going back to the old forum. I don't agree with him sometimes and have stated so at times, HOWEVER, he is a well respected member and is one of the oldest members in the forum. Concerning the bottom, please stay away if you don't believe in free speech. That being said, Mike, give it another chance! Stay with the forums that are related to the TW and don't go to the cellar. I am a Christian and my sensibilities are sometimes not in agreement with the poster and sometimes I wish that I did not read the post either. I choose to be down here sometimes and if I get my feelings hurt, it is my fault.

MIKE, DON'T GO!!!!!!!!
