Caller on Hartman from Florida right now telling him that someone is organizing motorcyclists right now to go to Washington to help police control anti Trump protesters. What could possible go wrong with this scenario.
Caller is apparently a motorcycle enthusiast who has been hearing about this attempt to organize pro Trump motorcycle clubs. It would not surprise me that this kind of thing is happening.

(18,652 posts)I went to both O inaug's and his pre-inaug concert. I had a ticket for the concert and no ticket for the inaug's. Could not get near the Capitol without a ticket and ended up a mile away at Wash Monument. Closed off streets, very strict security to get anywhere between Capitol and Wash. Monument (1 mile). Good luck, motorcycle clubs.

(38,437 posts)..motorcyclists ain't what they used to be. If you happen to be rolling through South Dakota when Sturgis is happening, it's yuppie central. The days of the outlaw, hard core tough-as-nails bikers are drawing to a close.
(In all seriousness: there are some solid bikers out there who organize for good causes. For example, those who form a human blockade against the hate filled Westboro lunatics are at the top of my hero list.)

As long as the police know their stuff, shouldn't be an issue.
