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.

Interesting. -

It looked to ME - like he gave a shove SIDEWAYS - TRYING to shove to bike over...The cop stepped off the bike and got him.

That's how it looks to me - but then, of course, I'm not an occupier sympathizer.

Yea right. You don’t win points here by being willfully stupid in trying to start an argument. Looks like the cop was a bit too much for the protestor to handle. Besides, when was the last time you pushed a cop or his equipment and didn’t get your face planted into the dirt?

Have you ever ridden a Harley? They weigh upwards of 750 lbs.

This clown pushed the bike sideways in a surprise move when the officer was not expecting it.

No rider I know could have stopped it from going over, and as a rider who has experienced such things when the bike reach’s a certain point it is better to just let it go down, rather than bust a gut trying to stop it. That is why the bike has crash bars.

The kid deliberately stuck his foot under the wheel, probably after watching the video of that other kid who stuck his foot under the cooter. The kid was treated rather gently to my mind, of course he might get tuned up a little when the camera’s are not on him at the station.But he has it coming.

That jerk was trying to knock the bike over sideways.... and he did.

I ride one of those and had ANYBODY deliberately knocked my bike over, he would never walk normal again. Breaking two kneecaps is quick and easy to do.

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.
