    Zipties might suggest a youngster. Either way not good.

I can't imagine what is going on in this sick fucko's head, but killing or maiming someone just because they made a little noise? WTF! Is this person going after every homeowner that uses mower/leaf blower/chainsaw?

    Actually no one knows what the perp's motive is, I'm just guessing it's noise. If it was illegal off-road riding (which is non-existant in this area) then I would think the wire would be strung in the woods.


    Anyhoo, it's good to see the police and press are taking this seriously. There was a news crew when I rolled throught the intersection and the camera guy pointed it at me and panned as I went by. I'm famous!


    WTF!?!?!?! i want to zip tie that m-fer by the ankles to the back of my jeep and drag him around town.....


    And Kham, let the Police hate thing go, it is way beyond old and frankly really fucking annoying, You do stupid shit to get pulled over and I don't blame them for ticketing you, Asian or not...

    I'm guessing this person chose zip ties because they have a relativly low breaking point. Thus, it would be likely to seriously hurt someone and possibly not kill them. Then again, maybe its all he had around. Either way, its a sick thing to do.

    Low breaking point?? Let me zip-ty your hands behind your back and we'll see how low that breaking point is.

    BTW, the perp did it again Thursday. The line of zip-tys was found in a different location (still on Grove St.) at 1:30 pm.

    I thought a boobie trap was when some girl hides behind bushes and then jump on the street to stop cars showing off her boobs. Zipties? That's just fucked up...

    Re: Biker booby trap in Framingham

    That's a lot of flippin zipties! A quick check with the local hardware stores should help find the culprit.

    I too think they would simply break if a biker hit them. They have strength when wrapped around something, but not so much in chain formation. the little plastic teeth just melt away under pressure. I wouldn't want to test my thoery though...

    Depends on the brand of zipties. Whatever ones Pasta had at the track would pull apart if you looked at them funny, the bag of long black ones I carry would likely hold more than well enough to take a head off. :/

    UPDATE!!

    Turns out it was just teenage boys being stupid. That actually makes me feel much better. Better than some old man or woman who just hates bikers and wants us all dead.

    They didnt intend to hurt anyone, so what were they planning?
    Of course, since they're young kids theyll get away scot free anyway, but at least no one was actually hurt.

    "Police Lt. Paul Shastany said the boys turned themselves in earlier this month, telling investigators they had not intended to hurt anyone."

    HA!
    What the hell were they trying to do then?

    Paul, before the ties melt they could be doing a heck alot of
    damage to ones neck. I for one wouldn't want to be there
    testing the strength of said zip ties ! At speed even a simple string could
    be pretty devastating...

    Look what some foam the size of a cooler lid did to the space shuttle !

    Funny, I was just reading about this ( Edward Tufte) so I know that the
    foam piece was just 1.6 lbs but its the energy involved is calculated by
    its velocity squared.
    So it was moving at 600 MPH at the time of impact that gives you a pretty big level of kinetic energy!

    Physics fasinatin' stuff!

    Anyway glad these guys are caught. Hopefully they learn something!

    Re: Biker booby trap in Framingham

    The fact that they turned themselves in goes in their favor. they would never have been caught. It also shows that they are not more mature than 13 or 14 in mind as any streetwise 14 year old would have laid low until everything blew over and forgotten about it.

    Kids of 13 or 14 don't think about consequences like adults do. If they have clean records I hope that they just get some community service and a lesson in consequences.

    HOPEFULLY the parents will punish them too.

    They should have to confess their sins at Motorcycle Night on the stage.
    Maybe then it might sink in what could have happened.
