LAA said: (quoted from post at 05:12:52 08/26/13) The quoted stats pretty well tell the story,
1 crash and 755 traffic tickets and 27 DUI"s -- it was not about public safety it was about generating income for the city and state off of majority out of towners so there won"t be any political fallout. I bet that one thing the vast majority of the attendees had in common was they had a JOB, I venture that guess because that is not a cheap hobby, so called ""law enforcement"" is primarily interested in people who can pay fines, thats why the dope heads and welfare winos can run up and down the road in POS vehicles without insurance, sticker or anything else that is mandatory for the rest of us.

But I guess riots should be allowed to happen because they are such revenue generators for the local businesses.......
