This is the turning point where privileged white councilmembers like Charles Allen take the mask off. He is proposing taking away people’s cars, in a city where this will disproportionately affect poor black people, without trial in the name of equity for going 1-10 miles above the speed limit for more than 8 times in a couple of months?!!! So if someone drives 23 mph on a 20 mph street and gets caught 8 times you’re going to steal their car?!!! You cannot make this up.

I guess stealing people’s cars without trial is okay but letting criminals out without bond to commit more crimes, against mostly working class black people, is okay? Yeah…okay.

These haughty, unseasoned bike lane advocates are revealing their true selves. [/quote]

So nice to see you again, everything-is-racism troll.[/quote]

That's not the everything-is-racism troll, that's the everything-is-about-the-evils-of-bike-lanes word-salad troll. [/quote]

Bike lanes aren’t evil, but the closeted racist bike zealots are. Trying to drive black people out of the city by impounding their cars for driving 24 mph and putting up bike lanes in front of historic black churches to make it more difficult for black elders to park in front of their places of worship is a a very slick slight of hand. But we see through it. [/quote]

Likely the "we" here is the same "we" who hates the bike lanes on Connecticut Avenue.[/quote]
