Top man!

I have to disagree.
The cyclist clearly knew the driver and did a double take when he realised who it was he was cycling past.
It looks like a personal vendetta or a gang related feud.

The cyclist victim of the cowardly hit and run has left the court a free man!
Drinks all round, well done that judge. :-)

When cyclists are involved inconvenient things like facts don't matter to nugents.

A cyclist thug who pulled out a huge 'zombie knife' and began smashing a
car window in a terrifying road rage attack was today spared jail,
sparking fury.

Shocking dashcam footage showed Joshua Gardner, 18, brandishing the
enormous blade on a busy south London road before repeatedly slashing at
the car and threatening its 19-year-old driver, who got out and ran away.

But an Old Bailey judge told Gardner he would only be given a suspended
sentence because he was wielding the knife after a ten-day kidnap ordeal
in which he was held at gunpoint.

QUOTE 2:
The decision sparked fury, with serving Greater Manchester Police
officer 'Sgt K' tweeting that he had been left 'speechless'.

A (two year) suspended sentence for attacking someone (or making the
attempt as best he could) with an offensive weapon like that? Even if
the intended victim *was* a drug dealer who had kidnapped the assailant
on a previous occasion, we don't have capital punishment fordrug-dealing
(though maybe we ought to).

You think John Sainsbury should be executed for selling water, sugar and caffeine to the public?

Which of those things are classified illegal drugs?


You did not specify 'illegal' drug dealer, only drug dealer.


Why would punishment of any sort be an issue in respect of activities
which are not illegal?

Wake up...

If tobacco was discovered tomorrow and tested for fitness for human consumption it would be banned, as would alcohol.
More people have died from water overdose than certain naturally growing herbs that are deemed illegal by the users of said herbs.


Don't tell me.

Tell your MP.

Let him or her have a laugh with their secretary about you after you've
gone.


The problem is most MPs are so high on weed they cannot stop laughing.
