[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's funny how cyclists go on and on about how dangerous the roads are, and how we have to spend billions of dollars to protect cyclists, but when you look at the stats, you see that on average there's *one* cyclist death in DC per year. And then when you point out that, so far this year, there are 259 murders and 5,125 violent crimes, and both of those are up by one third from last year, they say "oh well, that's city living for you. Crime is rare anyway." I guess the difference is the cyclist killed is white and the people murdered mostly are black. [/quote] "The cyclist killed" is actually usually not white, but go off with your stereotypes.[/quote]
