Mrs. Clinton was heard off-camera to say, with fake tears in her eyes, "But that Big Dog commercial was so popular - and it didn't come out at all like this - I guess I never shoulda showed him my tits while he was racing by the motorcade." **sniff sniff** :eek:

(Sorry - no ill intent meant to the officer or his family - the unholy thought just flew into my head unintentionally.) :rolleyes:

He probably got a glimpse of her and he offed himself from the shame of it.....

Sorry, I hate to hear of ANY motorcycle tragedy and, I'm not intending to make light of losing anyone to a motorcycle accident.

They were going to oak cliff.... It's the ghetto of dallas. It's where about 99 percent of the crime in the town originates.

I'm really shocked by that statement.

Yeah, I suppose that's true, barhopper - but it just caught me in a bad mood :angry: since I just drove in to work, hearing Hillary take political advantage of such a tragedy - I guarantee I have a lot more sympathy for the loss of that officer, and concern for his family, than she does.

The real fact is that every motocycle cop I have ever encountered (whether on my bike or not) has been extraordinarily courtious and professional, doing a tough job in an often dangerous environment.

...and just like WB says, a rider is a rider - sorry for the loss. I wholeheartedly agree.

End rant - :rant:

In many ways all riders are members of our brotherhood. So this is a loss that is very regretable and my heart goes out to the fallen officers family.

In my mind, Clinton plays no part in this or anything else for that matter. I just choose to ignore her.

I feel very bad for the officers family and from the article I believe this is soley the responsibilty of his commanding officers. Here's why.

This shows exactly what we all know... its dangerous. Perhaps the most dangerous thing he will do as a motorcycle cop.
"The accident is still under investigation but the motorcycle escorts we do are very dangerous," said Dallas Police Chief David Kunkle. "They require officers to speed up and ride ahead of the motorcade and do that over and over again so there's always an element of danger in these motorcades."

Then the reason why he should have never been there and why I blame who ever his commanding officer that put him there.

Chief Kunkle said Cpl. Lozada had been with the motorcycle unit for over a month.

A whole month? WOW!! Kinda takes out the wondering why he got in the accident, bit the curb and went down. IN-EXPIERENCE!!! There is no way with the facts in the first quote that he should have been doing this with such little expierence!!

RIP Officer and thank you for what you have always done with pride!

That shows just how fragile life is for all of us. In a split second any one of us could parish. Prayers to the family and for all of us as we enter into another season of riding.

I lost three people I knew pretty well last year.

Life is fragile. Enjoy it while it lasts.

I turned on the news a few minutes ago and saw it on FOX. It's sad to know we lost a fellow biker.
