Breitbart.tv ^ | October 30, 2011 | Unknown

Things got out of hand Saturday at the Occupy Denver protests as demonstrators turned on the police. Reports of graffiti and vandalism against police buildings included a broken window at a recruitment center. In this latest footage, we see a gang of thugs surround a motorcycle cop and push it over while the officer is still on it.

The cop could have kept the bike up, but he would have had to hit the throttle to do it. It was better that he let it go down and step away from it. I wish that a$$ would have put up more of a fight.... he needed a trip to the hospital.

BTW... you’re close... that bike weighs about 850*, before the cop stuff is added.

agree that having some horse biscuits dropped on him would have been great...

Interesting. I was never aware of that option.

I was wrong and sure caught hell.

I should have looked at it more than once before making a remark.

Hasn’t Obama been in support of Occupiers? Oh, then we can expect him to hold a presser tomorrow inviting the cop and thug to the White House for a beer summit, right? Maybe he will even give another Gabrielle Gifford speech about toning down the rhetoric. Maybe not......

“If this is true, why didn’t the cop just shoot the bastard?”

You beat me to it.

I don’t know who to root for here, cause I HATE cops as much as I HATE OWS hippies.

To me it looked like the guy was trying to push the motorcycle forward and it didn’t work. Too much bike for the cop to handle.

What, the guy pushed him over and it wasn't hard to see, besides it doesn't take a whole lot to do with heavy bikes at low speed. I once dropped my Goldwing at an intersection without help. Dang thing weighted a ton and I am a big fellow and I needed help to pick it up.

Well, he is supposed to have a loaded pistol in a holster on his hip. If he prefers to allow them to injure and possibly him rather than use it. It is his decision. Granted that if he did the media, the media would crucify him.

9 millimeter or .40s will reach 6 feet. Let them use them. As far as I am concerned, the more that the police shoot, the better the world is. Bastards such as this caused untold thousands of our guys tio unnecessarily be killed in Viet Nam.

My God did I just see a gang of whites attacking a black man? Where is Eric Holder, Jessie Jackson, The Reverend AL? Why isn’t this front page news? Oh wait they were occupiers attacking “the Man” never mind.

Dry weight 756 lbs. Add the cop radio and lights and siren and ticket book and maybe it hits a little over 825.
