machohorn Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Our Increased Penalties Bill (fail to yield) suffered a serious, but not fatal, set back in the MN House Finance Committee. The bill was soundly defeated on a voice vote. Mack has the latest info on the A.B.A.T.E. of MN HSOforum, check it out when you get a chance.The bill still has life, but not much. Stay tuned for details, we will not give up, we will fight until the bitter end of this session. Until we get this changed this is how things work. If someone runs a stop sign and kills a biker they get a fine for running a stop sign which runs around $120. If someone gets busted for being two crappies over the limit they are subject to a fine of $120. It is my opinion that we need to do the following to fix this:We need more members state wide and we really need more members from Minneapolis and St. Paul. We must have some kind of increased presence at the Capitol, it may not be cheap. The committee hearing today was at 8:00 a.m. How many people can go to St. Paul on a Tuesday at 8:00 a.m? We just have to find 500 dedicated freedom fighters that believe the life of a Biker is more valuable then the life of two crappies and they have to show up at St. Paul for Biker Day 2010.We need to write more letters, send more emails, attend more fundraisers, help with more campaigns and contribute more to the PAC.We can stand and be counted or we can roll around doing the crappie flop, the choice is yours.

The_Duckslayer Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 But, I don't think that the guy taking two extra crappies would be charged with vehicular manslaughter though.Kind of like if you go out and punch out a child molester it is now a hate crime but if you punch out a vetran it's just a run of the mill assult. Lots of things that are out there that are not OK. However, we elected these goons to the office that they are holding. Take care and N Joy the Hunt././Jimbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
