Police get upset and block cyclists

Cowards don't like the truth.
QUOTE:
"Cambridge police tweeted: "We took the decision to block a handful of people who were persistently trolling our account. There's always 101 if they need us."
This sparked a Twitter storm as cyclists accused the police of blocking debate.

One cyclist tweeted: "It seems you have blocked legitimate critics too. With all due respect, trying to engage them in other ways may work better."

Cambridge Police replied: "We have no issues with constructive criticism; unfortunately, those blocked were unable to converse politely."

But cyclists claimed they were being blocked despite being "painfully polite".

One tweeted: "You clearly don't understand the meaning of the word "trolling". Robust feedback is not trolling."

Another cyclist wrote: "I'm 1 of those blocked & I now want to officially complain about suggestion I'm a troll."

But the police still have to tell the truth whether the cowards like it
or not.

A Twitter spat has erupted after Cambridge police branded cyclists
'trolls' following a campaign against badly parked bikes in the city.

Is this really the best the police can do to enforce the law? Tweet
things that law-breakers don't like?

All they have to do is collect all the illegally-parked bikes, throwm
them into the back of a big pick-up truck, drive it to the local Civic
Amenity site and dump the bikes into the crusher.

None of them will ever be badly-parked again.

This is typical of cyclist cult behavior. They have no other life and
feel like everyone is out to get them.

Cycling ruins lives, but they are too dim to see it.

You only have to look at how cycling has ruined Crispin's life if you
need proof.

Sorry I am bit thick - how do you mean cycling ruined Crispin's life - can you
elaborate?

Has he not always been a sociopath?

I suspect it ruined the lives of the girl's parents - and it absolutely
destroyed her's.

Rhiannon Bennett, 17, was walking with friends when she was hit by cyclist
Jason Howard on 2 April 2007.
Howard was convicted of "dangerous cycling" and fined. Under the charge there
was no penalty of imprisonment.

I recall he said: "move because I'm not stopping" - a typical nice cyclist.

True.

The OP should have said "some bicyclists ruin lives"
just the same as some insert anything can ruin lives.
