What a dumbfuck

I drove past the group on 35, I was heading south, of the probably 200 bikes I saw, I only saw one pop a short wheelie, so they looked to be pretty well behaved to me. The officer should lose his job and be charged with something, if anyone else did this they would be in prison.

Not to nitpick here, but drove past? Doesn't that mean you only saw them for what, maybe 15-30 seconds, max?

The people stuck behind them apparently had plenty of time, and reasons, to call the pd for their road fun.

One of the many reasons I won't ride in a big group. Bad shit always happens, I too find it hilarious on many levels.

Lt. John Pike approves these actions, and feels sorry for the officer's mental anguish and suffering.

just trying to get home safe.

They're bikers... I'm having a hard time finding a care in the world. It never fails, every time I see a group like this, they always think they can stop highway traffic at the on ramps or keep people from exiting the off ramps so their group can stay together. F'em.

So dumping an irritant into a group of people on 2 wheels moving at highway speeds is a good idea for a law enforcement officer why? If they were breaking the law, why didn't he radio ahead for their arrest?

I don't believe he said he ever said it was a good idea, i believe he said he didn't care.

Late Monday afternoon, Fort Worth police announced the officer in the video has been taken off patrol and put on administrative duties until the culmination of the investigation. The officer is a six-year veteran with the force.

He's on a desk until you forget about this.

I hope this costs Ft. Worth a LOT of money and this fucktard his career and some time in jail.

It won't of course. He'll get paid time off, a stern talking to and told to not appear on TV for a few weeks.

Maybe the people in the truck who got second hand maced will sue the city or the individual cop. One of them did end up in the hospital. I am sure they have had several lawyers stop by to visit them already.

The officer was acting within the scope of his duties and felt in fear for his life. The officer has qualified immunity and the city is citing sovereign immunity.

What pension? We all know it's like Social Security
