iReport —

This past weekend I was watching Kiro TV 7 news in Seattle where it was first reported that some of the members of the bicycle group known as Critical Mass were facing assault charges for attacking the driver of a car trying to make it's way through the crowd of 100 or so bicyclists on Seattle's Capitol Hill. I had begun writing my own iReport on the subject until I came across a statement of a witness... http://blog.seattlepi.nwsource.com/seattle911/archives/144527.asp My question is this: Who do you think was in the wrong? Does the organization, or lack there of, of Critical Mass need to change in order to protect its members? Should Critical Mass be held accountable for following the bike laws the same as everyone else?
