I'm a hardcore biker. Maybe its different in Chicago, but bikers don't obey traffic laws.
Regardless, how petty of the officer. He shouldn't be pulling over bikers and citing them.
Yet it is still illegal in Chicago to not obey the traffic laws, and your buddy Rahm just recently increased the fines for bicyclists who do not obey the traffic laws.
There's no reason for him to be stopped if he's on his bicycle.
The man ran a STOP sign on his bicycle, that is why he was pulled over. Running a stop sign is not legal in most places...
Now apologize to the nice pigs....

I advocate the public taking justice into their own hands. Call me an extremist or whatever you want. I'm tired of these pigs.
Right, because bike riders never break the law. Never run stop signs, never cut off traffic, never obstruct traffic, never threaten drivers.

Bikers don't pay attention to stop signs.
It was a cop abusing his authority.
I stand by my statement. Could care less if it offends you. They need to clean up the tough guy act unless they want to be treated like a tough guy.
Typical a**h*** bike rider, cities are full of people like you.

Chicago, city of corruption. Around here bike riders who run stop signs get ticketed and have to pay a fine.
Laws apply to you just like anyone else, you aren't above the law. People like you are why bikes should be banned from the roads. If you want to ride stick to the bike trails that you should have to pay for.
Bike riders get hit by cars all the time in cities, drivers shouldn't be cited for arrested for it because it happens all the time.
