Motorcycle Curfew
Did anything come of this? Or are they keeping their plans quiet for the election to not scare the iron horses?

Thanks Triple Jim
I guess that kind of thing is an unintended consequence of the US first amendment. I am a Brit so not up to speed on what is acceptable in US journalism, the bar is lower than I thought |

It's not journalism; the entire site is 100% bullshit click-bait stories:

On the other hand, we've got the National Enquirer, which has been cited by one of our presidential candidates (who shall remain nameless) as a valid media source.

I know this was a hoax, but if a law like this did pass I would not comply. When I was a kid, the city I lived in had a curfew for minors. I recognized the curfew my mother gave me, not the one the city thought they had the right to impose.
I never really got in trouble. I got a ride home from a police officer once before I had my license. I was headed that way anyway. He was friendly though, didn't even knock on the door to talk to my mom or anything. Another time right after I got my drivers license, I got pulled over for touching the cross walk at a red light. I didn't get a ticket, but he told me to go home. I went to Waffle House instead. |

As far as the political heavyweight The Sun goes this was its best ever, as yet unsurpassed

The so-called "media" isn't a monolithic body, it's actually a widely disparate group of people and corporations with competing and often clashing goals and points of view. Certain political institutions have created the myth of a cohesive "media", but in reality that just doesn't exist. There are plenty of individual reporters and reporting organizations that have high operating standards and ethics, the real challenge is finding them among the sewage that the internet makes so easily accessible in today's times.
Frankly, whenever I hear of the latest story of some conspiracy to take away our "rights" the first place I go is Snopes.com, FactCheck.org, and TruthorFiction.com. I find that invariably these rumors are just lies and outright attempts to sway people's votes and views. Believing in and promoting conspiracy theories is a form of mental illness IMHO, and should be treated as such. Seeing a conspiracy theorist is like seeing a person with a big tumor hanging off their face who refuses to seek treatment and refuses to even acknowledge the presence of the tumor. |

It turns out snopes isn't any better, Kim LaCapria has a nice history of opinionated lies and deception to promote the left.

You're mentally ill IMHO, you should seek help. People who, like you, are far down the path of radicalization can still be saved, but you have to get help. Only you can decide to step out of the shadows of denial, before it's too late and you bomb a clinic or commit some other act of terrorism. https://www.mentalhealth.gov/get-help/immediate-help/ Please, find the strength to find help. |
