Of course, many of the comments are by cyclists inciting violence
against motorists, but that's OK isn't it? Cyclists are allowed to be
violent, break sensible laws, be unjustifiably hostile to all motorists,
etc, because they're using a morally superior form of transport and
they're justified in compensating for the supposed persecution they've
suffered from all quarters since the year dot. That's why you would
never complain about violence by cyclists towards motorists, only the
other way round (even when it's only *alleged* violence by motorists
towards cyclists).

Obvious bias like that does the cycling cause no favours. (And no, you
didn't specifically mention violence by motorists against cyclists, but
you meant that didn't you?)

Bottom line if you believe the car-haters: when a cyclist does
something, it's always OK, and when a motorist does something, it never
is.
