Keith, I too agree that loud pipes are obnoxious and counter-productive for 
our sport/image. BUT, I do not think it gives anyone the right to endanger 
lives. The "squids" involved certainly are doing the rest of us no favors, 
but as the article said, they are the small minority. The rest of the riders 
will, no doubt, pay the price.

The point I was trying to make is the Palomar residents seemed to exhibit 
the typical "ME, ME" attitude with no regard for the rights/safety of the 
majority of the motorcyclists. Undoubtedly some of the motorcyclists have 
the same crappy attitude. I just think it's a shame that our society is 
becoming increasingly self-serving, losing our ability to compromise and get 
along.

So we all agree; you bug people with obnoxious behavior, they will 
retaliate.  But is that right?
