I was in Carlsbad, CA, I think it was, a few weeks ago, walking into a Denny's with my wife, when I observed a Rider sitting on his machine in the parking lot, just getting ready to leave. I was, oh, maybe sixty, seventy feet away, but I stopped and sketched a quick salute his way before walking in. I was reminded of how grateful I am for these guys when he threw a quick wave back, acknowledging my thanks.

So, yeah. The chorus is loud, and it ought to be. For every one who proffers hate like WBC, there will be one thousand or more of us standing in opposition.
