5. Maybe he can get back into his Jesus character and will that the 1000 employees of Harley Davidson in USA that are slated to be fired due to the economy can keep their jobs!

6. I actually came upon this accident yesterday about 10 minutes after it happened. Cops past me to get to accident but there got there about 4 to 5 minutes before me. The state patrol was taking pictures with everyone lining up behind the motorcycle and bicycle so I assume they knew he was an actor. The bicycle was entangled in the motorcycle. I first thought that the bicyclist would be dead but since the ambulance was still there and and cops walking around casually, that no one was hurt. Weird.

8. "Bike Chucker"?...LMAO!!!
Seriously though, crap like this needs to be given more attention...Folks don't realize that what may seem insignificant is extremely dangerous to those riding motorcycles...
I wonder if they caught the "nutjob"?...

9. I had a friend who was murdered by someone who had a mental illness while counseling him. Left his wife a widow and his kids fatherless .. I understand that not all with a mental illness are dangerous but there really should be some way to better protect people from those who are. And they are out there.

10. Bike Chucker has been driven crazy by the unnecessary loudness of the Harleys. He couldn't take it anymore!

11. The man who threw the bike has mental problems and didn't know who Mr. Caviezel was and just threw the bike in front of a cycle. The reporter from the radio station who origionally broke the story didn't know why he was in Washington. If he'd have checked a bit further, he would have found out that Mr. Caviezel is from our home town, Mount Vernon, WA. He always visit's his home State.

13. I wonder how many other dangerous things this bike thrower has done.
I am glad James will be alright since he could have been killed by
such a crazy act.

14. I heard it was Caviezel's agent who chucked the bike in front of him in a last-ditch effort to get his client some TMZ face time.

15. Jim Caviezel is an awesome actor and a wonderful man. Thankfully he wasn't hurt seriously.
