Mathias's mock turtle soup

“ He basically said that bikes shouldn’t be on roads, and that if they (anyone on a bike, lycra or not) are you (meaning: person in a car) should attempt to scare the riders so they stay off the roads. I’m leaving out the scary bits of his quote.

...

I’m just annoyed because people change the argument from what Kornheiser actually said, to a discussion of whether bikes should be on roads, bike safety laws, etc etc. While he’s entitled to his opinions, encouraging people to cause harm (potentially fatal harm) to anyone is pretty much hate speak in my mind. That day he said cyclists. Next day it could be something else (old people in grocery store parking lots, kids walking to school). I’m not upset that he targeted cyclists, I’m upset he targeted human beings. Kids, parents, husbands, daughters.
