Just thought I'd share. He's got an email address at the site. Found him on another site as well, his pic and where he says he lives - somewhere in Mississippi, apparently:
Some Harley rider (probably a woman) must have physically whipped his a$$ at some point in his miserable life or something and he's apparently been bitter about it ever since; 'don't know. 'Likes to use big words. Probably to try and compensate for his little 'self esteem,' ahem. He's a real nasty little f*** towards Harley riders.

BTW, FYI, if anyone cares, I sent the idiot the following email today:
"Some people will tell you that slow is good-and it may be, on some days...but I'm here to tell you that fast is better. I've always believed this, in spite of the trouble it's caused me. Being shot out of a cannon will always be better than being squeezed out of a tube. That is why God made fast motorcycles ..." - Hunter S. Thompson, as posted by a "Christopher T. Shields" on his "American Angst" website, apparently in support of his fetish for rice burners over Harley-Davidsons.
Zeb's response to Christopher's supposed 'wit':
"If Hunter truly had believed this, then he wouldn't have blown his brains out with a very slow .45 auto (850 fps muzzle velocity), like he did. He would have instead perhaps used a .357 magnum (1600 fps muzzle velocity) or something equivalent.
When you do it, Chrissy, please, by all means, use the .357.

Just goes to show that a a slower, bigger and heavier American tradition can get the job done very nicely when you want it to. Just 'ask' Hunter S. Thompson.

Exactly. I refuse to waste time or emotion on people like this. Tends to validate them in their own eyes. Ignoring them really kills them. Even if it doesn't, I don't care. I have better things to do with my day.
This guy's been around for a while...either a LEO or an ex-LEO i think. Anyone that tries to argue with him gets verbally shredded on his website. Although i've met people with similar attitudes, this guy takes it to extremes. Every once in a while, a board member discovers his site. He really isn't worth your time. I did send him a well written, intelligent e mail regarding HD bikes and riders and never received a reply.He really enjoys it when he can get you p***ed off. Best to just ignore him.
