<p>Of course, you'll have to prove the bike in question is, in fact, yours -- as in registration? I know I owe 9 bikes and not a single one is registered.</p>

<p>This response by police pretty much makes me want to throw up. Seeing the pile of bikes is devastating. I know if my bike was in that pile, I'd pretty much lose it. And that shouldn't be what motivated us - fear that our bikes will be taken from us if we show up to protest. </p>

<p>I'm tired of stupid statues of terrible men e.g. Christopher Columbus seem to be given more importance than safety, human life, and dignity. I can't believe we are so many weeks into this and police are…</p>

<p>I'm tired of stupid statues of terrible men e.g. Christopher Columbus seem to be given more importance than safety, human life, and dignity. I can't believe we are so many weeks into this and police are still using the same dangerous tactics they were using back when this first happened. And then they wonder why we want the funding and job description of the police departments all across our country to be re-examined. We have a hammer (police) and barely anything is a nail. That is bad for both the police and the communities they are supposed to protect. </p> Two wrongs don't make a right…tag:thechainlink.org,2020-07-22:2211490:Comment:11393432020-07-22T15:42:43.720ZV Whttps://thechainlink.org/profile/vincentwaller
<p>Two wrongs don't make a right. The umbrella brigade needs to be held accountable, the police should also be held accountable for illegal seizure of bikes.</p>
