If you called the cops and gave them the description, they would
investigate the matter and they would tell the officers to watch for
suspects of that description hanging around the bank.

But the description probably wouldn't include the *race* of the
suspects.

It's so bad nowadays, that the cops won't describe a suspect as
"African American".

If O.J. had been seen cutting Nicole's throat, the cops wouldn't have
described him as "African American", they would have said that he had
brown hair and brown eyes.

Maybe they can't even say that he was "dark-complected" anymore.

Then, when it comes to describing Mexican suspects, you don't want to
tell a Mexican cop that the suspect was "a Mexican".

The cops will say something like, "How do you know he was a Mexican?
Did you ask him?"

Or you will hear something like, "Mexican? That's no description. Half
the people in this town are
Mexicans."

John "Amnesty Juan" McCain recently hired an immigration adviser who
is a Mexican. You've probably seen him on TV. He's the guy that calls
everybody "my friend" and says that there is "no such thing as an
illegal immigrant" and that people cannot be illegal.

And, the Mexican consulate has hired a public relations firm to
rehabilitate the image of Mexico and Mexicans in the eyes of the
American public.

They are the ones that are saying that "Mexicans are hard-working
family people, and that they just want the same things that you want."

The problem is, the things that the Mexicans want are *my things* and
they are willing to commit illegal acts and even crimes to get my
possessions.

So you would warn them about that  
   a) that specific location
   b) American citizens
   c) red heads



Common sense would say that judging all of Mexico based upon Tijuana might  be a
tad  presumptuous.

all theft occurs, and regularly

i think of the helmet as more an extension of myself than the bike -
it's a personal thing, whereas the bike is its own entity...i always
carry my helmet with me (but i'm going to be using my 1/2 soon and
then i'll lock it inside my hardbags)

most gloves fit in pockets of coats ... you ride AGATT, yes? even
winter gauntlets should be easily stuffed at least mostly into some
pocket on any riding jacket

gloves are more likely to get stolen, IMHO

I've had my gloves stolen off the bike by a some Goldwinger.  I was parked
at a Sierra restaurant.  My bike was shortly surrounded by a bunch of
Goldwingers and my $135 Held gloves ended up missing when I went to leave.

But, "You meet the nicest people on a Honda."  NOT!

Luckily, they didn't piss in the helmet or mess with that.
