Penn police intervene at July Critical Mass in Philly

[alegubert]

Look what happened in Porto Alegre, Brazil a couple days ago. The police there is "awaiting for the driver to turn himself in" Brazilian law dictates that after a short time the driver cannot be arrested without going to trial.

this isnt NYC...it's west Philadelphia....40th and Walnut...and i see nothing here

Yeah, it was at Rittenhouse Square, and its the very end that I kind of want to see, so if you don't have all of it, that's fine.

I also think that its relevant to post this to the NYPD video, it just shows that not all critical mass rides are hatted on by cops. Chicago I hear that the cops actually ride along and block the traffic for them.

I was kind of grumpy that the dude didn't post my video as a reply for this reason, but now he has! Thanks for the heads up.

Hey, could you post the video (I think it was you who had the camera) where the two guys got out of the car and started hassling me. I don't know if the one guy flashed a weapon at me or not. He made a motion like he was... I don't know its really been bothering me and I know there's video out there too. Thanks for posting this too, its nice to see that guy getting hassled instead of us.

I'll try and find it. Where did that happen? I saw an incident at Rittenhouse square, but I think it was almost over when I got there. I am really busy and shouldn't even have done this but I wanted to reply to the NYC video. I don't think they'll accept this as relevant, though, because it shows cops being reasonable and professional...
