When mainstream media acts like these dudes are motocross riders, it becomes moto related. When thieves steal from motocross riders and motocross dealers, its moto related. Don't read the thread if you don't feel that it's related to you.

I'd gladly take it to my city council if it was an issue in my city. Something tells me they wouldn't listen until the virus is as bad or worse than some of the cities on the east coast. And we've all seen how hard it is to put the toothpaste back in the tube once it's gotten out.

Do many dealers post here? A discussion about this would include them for sure.

Believe me, I've tried to get all of the negative bullshit out of my life and not read stuff like this, including comments on Facebook and Youtube. Sometimes it's impossible to avoid, but I try hard not to get sucked in. But sometimes I still do...

I've discovered it's usually when I am having a bad pain day that I find myself arguing with people online...
Like right now! Oh, and thanks for reminding me to pick up some toothpaste.

I think we'd all be much better off if we could do that. But if you gotta choose between putting up with a few distasteful comments and not remembering the toothpaste, I'd say it's worth it to get online!

I don't consider every disagreement in opinion an argument. I'm happy to have a discussion with someone if it's reasonable. Odds are neither of us will change our minds but that's ok. It's enjoyable to create well thought out ideas and debate them. That's one of the perks of being in the middle of the bell curve. We all have different opinions but we are reasonable people. How boring would it be to be on the far left or right of the spectrum and you only interact with everyone who agrees with you?

Unfortunately, I feel like most people these days seem to be very cut and dry with their opinions and beliefs.

And it's almost impossible to have a meaningful discussion with someone that already has their mind made up.
But that is what I see online.

Wouldn't it be better to keep wheelie boys threads as a honey pot? The topic can definitely be controversial and using it as a filter to clip violent or racist posters would be practical and efficient - fish in a barrel you know.

I wouldn't be aware of the full extent of the theft problem if not for vital. It makes me more vigilant, my bikes are now much safer thanks to these forums, essentially reminding me that people will take what I've got.

Not talking about the issue only helps thieves

Deleting wheelie boy robbery threads isn't very tolerant. Seems like victim blaming to me.
