  1. I'm not a cop.
  2. Only an idiot would mistake "County Police" for their local constabulary.
  3. I don't want to be a target of the local gangs.
  4. I don't want to be a target of the local separatists.
  5. I don't want to be a target of anyone with a beef against cops.
  6. People that pay enough attention to read the shirt from a distance aren't the people I'm worried about hitting me.
  7. It's a fucking stupid and ugly shirt.
  8. Wearing something brightly colored with a color close to the center wavelength of human vision, i.e. yellow-green, is a more sure fire way to be seen.
  9. Only a dumbass would think such a shirt would save their bacon.

If people are so scared of riding on the roads that they need to wear such an idiotic shirt, then said people should stick to the trails and MUTS where they'll be all safe and cozy.

I'd be amazed if the video actually showed you paying attention to what you were doing.

I would add:

10. I don't want to be a target of the local police who would view your shirt as trying to impersonate a police officer.

Perfect! Now, we can have "TEN reasons to NOT wear the Police Jersey while biking". I was going to reply to alienator's post that he should have added one more reason, but you have filled in the missing one.

Alienator - Thanks for those words of encouragement, but I think I'll keep my posts limited to 10 or 15.

You go ahead and spend most of your waking hours trying to entertain people with your 2100 posts while the rest of us are out riding.

You'll keep it to 10 or 15 posts because your main purpose for coming on the board was to drop some spam on us in your "Amazing Video" thread.
