Its hard to say whether or not cops over reached IMHO, because in many cases law enforcement is handicapped by having to stay within the confines of the law (and of course they should) but unfortunately, whether it be outlaw bikers, street gangs or terrorists, they do not and only recognize the legal system when they want to use it to their advantage. It is sad that human beings who are supposed to be of a higher intelligence than animals often behave worse than animals. With regards to innocent's included in the arrests, sad as it may be, just how exactly are the cops supposed to determine the true outlaws from the none outlaws when so many bikers like to role play when out on their bikes. Being in the heat of the moment I cannot see were an officer has the luxury to single out the good from the bad, its not like you can just walk in and say " Ok will those of you who are innocent please step to the right and those of you who are guilty step to the left So we can arrest only those who should be arrested. I can remember while working as a bouncer in a bar in my 20's and getting into brawl were we outnumbered 3 to 1, were in the heat of the fight I had spun around and almost clocked one of my co-workers because things were happening so fast and your so overwhelmed that you become so desperate that your reactions become much faster than your thoughts. Its not like a video game were can you can hit the Pause button, something the general public and critics never seem to comprehend.
