Should N.J. cops have seized teens’ bicycles? Experts weigh in on controversy. Updated 10:56 AM; In a 17-minute video posted to YouTube, a large group of cyclists on BMX bikes filmed themselves riding around town, weaving in and out of traffic and doing tricks. They’re eventually stopped by police at least twice, with one interaction ending in applause and the other with a teenager in handcuffs. “It’s not for the level obviously (of) a George Floyd or Breonna Taylor situation, but it definitely connects on the level of police power, because that’s what this is,” said Jason Williams, an assistant professor of Justice Studies at Montclair State University who co-edited a book on Black men’s interactions with the criminal justice system. “It’s, ‘I have the power to inconvenience you, to arrest you, to make things harder for you, and I’m going to do it.’”
