According to organizer Kate/Owen, the point of the World Naked Bike Ride is tripartate- protesting oil use and car culture; advocating bikes, skateboards, rollarblades and other alternative forms of transport; and celebrating the human body.
The event that took place up and down the streets of Denver on the evening of Saturday the 12th was half-expected to run into trouble from the police. In 2006 the ride ended in arrests in Boulder, and that is Boulder mind you, famous for, well, some leeway in these sorts of things.
This was Denver. Not so much leeway. Organizers made sure they had copies of applicable laws, a lawyer somewhere in the crowd (he or she wasn't wearing a suit), and a street medic, for contingincies.
The ensuing, impromptu partnership between police and riders says a lot about what has changed, not just in two years, but in the protest movements and police offices generally. This reporter didn't make it all the way to the end of the ride, but there have been no reports of arrests or trouble. In fact, since I often ride on sidewalks, had to borrow a glowstick to comply with regulations to have a light on my bike, and couldn't film and keep up with the pack, I was probably the most arrestable person there.

10 Reasons Not To Kill in War
- You may die, so many people desire to feel what it is like to kill someone else, believe it or not, I know they do. Yet what these people do not want to feel, is their soul leaving their body... witnessing their intestines in their hands, legs gone, arms torn, eyes bleeding. You want to kill, but you sure don't want to die, and the enemy feels the same way.
- The enemy is your brother, your friend and comrade - You just don't know it, because you've never met them. There is no conversation before you shoot someone, you have no idea who they are, if they are a nice person, or dark mind.
- They are you - They are fighting for what they believe in, just like you. They fight for their friends, their family, their religion, everything they were brought up to believe in. If you were placed in their exact situation, the chances of you ending up behind a weapon, against the current force your on, is likely. You're killing yourself.
- The young primarily kill - there is a reason young people kill, and old people don't. Many elderly have learned what I am trying to teach you now, there is no point to war, anger, killing... priorities in your life change when you realize how important love is.
- You are the villain - If you were watching a TV show about the enemy, you would be able to sympathize with them. You would see where they grew up, the friends they played with... the people they dated, fell in love with. And then you would see you, shooting and killing them. If you saw that movie, you would hate yourself, but you've never thought about this, have you?
- Family - When you die, your pain is over, and your family's suffering only begins. When people who truly love someone lose a dear friend, brother, sister, son, daughter... it is not rare that those associated think of suicide, sometimes they actually do kill themselves. So now you have not just died, you've killed your family members by dying. The same goes for the enemy, those that love your enemy risk dying as well, they risk suffering as well.
- Corrupted Soul - Whatever form of afterlife you believe in, you will face what you have done when you die. Whether it be years after you kill someone and they greet you when your soul leaves its body, or whether it be when you're trying to get into whatever form of heaven you have and they look at the wrongs you have committed in your life. No the circumstances, the blood is on your hands.
- Nightmares - Once you've killed that person, the memory will be imprented on your mind until you die. You will never forget them. Nightmares, hauntings, stress & alteration of your core personality are common after taking someone elses life, save your life now, suffer years until you die. Die now, suffer only for a moment. Self defense is over-rated.
- Black & White Lies - The world is not black and white, wherever you go there are all kinds of people. Just because you grow up in an oppressive society does not mean you are incapable of being an individual. There is no true evil, everyone sane is capable of reason.
- You're Oblivious - You don't know what that person could have accomplished if you had not killed them, you do not know what life they lived, you don't know why they're there. Even if they're shooting at you, you are oblivious of the consequences of your actions. All people are capable of change, you have no idea who they were, or who they could be. All you know is that they are shooting.
You play judge and executioner, you act like your life is more valuable than those who face the muzzle of your weapon. You believe you, and those who are members of your country are truly good, and they are truly evil, but what you don't realize is that they are fighting for the same ignorant reasons you are, and that the people you're fighting for can be just as bad, if not worse than those you are fighting.
Whether you live a million more lives like this one depends on what decisions you make now, you are what you make yourself to be. It is better to die innocent now, than to die a murderer many years from now.
