Hello;
My name is Sputnik and I am posting this article as a personal opinion.
Several riders have asked who I am voting for when I speak at Events before I even get started but they are asking me as Chairman of TMRA 2.
Please allow me a personal opinion here as just myself. A rider who happens to spend most of my life in the political arena.
Are you opposed to the Trans Texas Corridor?
Do you feel you should have the right to dress as a biker in public establishments?
Should you be allowed to hold Rallies or just ride with your Bros without being the target of Law Enforcement?
Do you think that Medical Marijuana should be legal and simple possession should not result in jail time.
We currently have to carry medical insurance to ride without helmets but many policies won't pay if you are injured on a motorcycle. We have tried to get that changed to no avail. How do you feel about that?
These and many other questions have been posed to Chris Bell by me and other riders and the answers have all been acceptable.
His answers:
This issue will be brought back up in the legislature and killed. I will change the head of TxDOT. Our property will not be taken to make a private company wealthy.
You should be allowed to wear your colors into places open to the public.
Your colors will always be welcome in the capitol and Sputnik will be wearing his colors into my office at any time.
Riders should not receive undue scrutiny and I will do my best to keep that from happening.
NO one has shown me a way that legalizing marijuana could work but I do support Medicinal Maijuana. I also believe that entirely to many people are in prison for simple possession and we should free up that space for criminals. Simple possession should not carry jail time but I will have no mercy on dealers.
I will appoint an Insurance head that does not take his marching orders from the Insurance Lobbyest. We will honestly lower rates and look at what can be done with other changes for policy holders in Texas
That is why I will be voting for Chris Bell for to become the next Governor of Texas Tomorrow. NOT just because he is a Democrat, there are good and bad in both Parties. NOT just because Rick Perry is the worst governor I can remember and Chris Bell is the only candidate that can beat him. I will proudly vote for Chris Bell as a man of conviction. A congressman who lost his seat to to the Tom DeLay orchestrated redistricting and refused to admit defeat. A man who filed charges on Tom DeLay which drove him from office with two counts proven true and one yet to be heard in court.
I will go back to my regular routine job after voting tomorrow but tonight this message is sent to Texas riders via a dumb ass biker from the wrong side of the tracks expressing a PERSONAL OPINION.
Be sure to vote!!
