Michigan teens' dumb prank injures biker
http://www.woodtv.com/Global/story.a...9&nav=0Rcec9bQ
(Wyoming, July 14, 2005, 5:32 p.m.) Two teens are charged with assault after stretching plastic wrap across a road, injuring a motorcyclist. Police say Nicholas Gortsema and Andrew Witjer, both 17, stretched industrial strength plastic wrap across the 5300 block of Canal Street in Wyoming just before 1:30 a.m. July 1. Jim Anderson was riding his motorcycle and rode into the wrap. He was knocked down and suffered cuts and a fractured rib. Police found the teens nearby. They reportedly admitted to the prank and said they expected a car to hit the wrap, not a motorcycle. The teens are now charged with felonious assault, and if convicted they could spend as much as 15 years behind bars. |

A more fitting punishment would be to wrap some of that plastic around their necks and hang them with it. |

Felonious assault???? 15 years??? But if they had been speeding and crashed into this cyclist, all they'd do is pay a fine. |

Personally I think it might be a bit much for what appears to be a simple case of excessive dumbass; but then again, the message has to be sent that behavior like this can't be tolerated. Since being a dumbass isn't a crime, we have to charge them with what we can. Or are you a criminal coddler(TM)? nate |

Sure, we should start with the idiots who do 41 in a 25, as well as those who get drunk and drive their cars off a bridge and let their pregnant mistresses drown. -- The last song I started on my PC was: 3 Doors Down - The Road I'm On - Away From The Sun K:\Audio\3 Doors Down\Away From The Sun\03 - The Road I'm On.mp3 This is track 6 of 128 in the current playlist. |

You're the > CC. Wrong, maggot-brains. I speed nearly every day and I've never so much as given another driver a hangnail. However it's pretty obvious that there's a high potential for injury when blocking a road with industrial plastic. Perhaps you should try leaving the warmth and serenity of your colon and engaging in some logical thinking for once. nate |

How unfortunate that the jaybird wasn't the one to respond to the call, we could have eliminated the trial. |
