1. Now, select one motorway

   Now, select one motorway bridge at random, somewhere in Britain, and drop a paving stone onto a car.  

   And do this every single time a cyclist is deliberately targeted.

       Probably aligns with his pro-Israeli freedom fighting?

       Seems odd to randomly try and kill people because a cyclist gets knocked off. Could be one of us driving the car for ultimate irony.

       Because violence works.

       You’re welcome.

     At a point in the day when I think humans can’t get any more stupid, I read this. Well done @Legs_Eleven_Worcester. You may be proof that natural selection doesn’t always get it right.

           Are they cheese or minced beef and onion?

           If we’re going to do random violence, can we at least target kittens? Cats are evil buggers.

           NOOOOOOO!!! One of my favourite fellow road.cc-ers, the honourable member for all things squirrel related, doesn’t like cats .

            

           Maybe it’s because they catch squirrels ? Mine doesn’t. Mind you, if it’s mice you’re after (usually in bits) he’s definitely the cat to talk to…

           I’m much more of a dog person (and squirrels obviously).

           Cats are manipulative, violent, they bully small creatures and if they decide that they don’t want to be petted anymore will likely attempt to bite/scratch harm you for the terrible crime of trying to be nice to them. If a dog bites you, it gets destroyed, whereas if a cat bites/scratches you then it seems to be completely accepted. And, what kind of monstrous creature doesn’t like cake?

           Also, they use biological weapons: toxoplasma gondii.

       To be fair, I think the guy has a point… the only thing that will ensure our streets are more effectively policed is if more of society feel that the only asnwer is to take the law into their own hands. 

       Now, randomly attacking motorists is a strange way to retaliate I grant you, however you could argue that it effectively mirrors the way these knuckle dusters are attacking cyclists seemingly at random. 

       I suppose the difference is that these knuckle dusters don’t see knocking off cyclists as an attack, they see it as adminstering justice

         Which is all well and good until you find yourself as the innocent victim of a revenge attack on account of you happen to be wearing the same kind of shoes as some complete stranger who did something horrid to another complete stranger or some other random reason such as your choice of transport for a given journey.

         I hate to think of all the reasons why I might be targeted in retaliation for the misdeameanors of middle aged white guys.

         If you think that violence is the answer, then why not start with your own friends and family? Maybe they will be more understanding of your grievance and the necessity of you having to maim them. Or at the very least put them up front for being first in line for having the paving slab dropped on them.

         I always have a point.  As do thick twats like ‘ConcordeCX’ or whatever he’s called.  Except in his case, it’s on top of his head. 

         Violence works.   Whether you use it or not, is no skin off my nose.  I’ve had enough, and am leaving Britain within a month to go and live in Amsterdam with my wife and daughter.    You lot can keep being the punchbags of the British motorist, and maybe one day, you’ll get off your knees and stop pleading, ‘Please, Mr Driver?  Please be nice to me?  Please don’t hurt me!  If I get off the road and start cycling only on the footway, will you please not hurt me?  Oh, you’re a nice driver, Mr Driver!  Would you like to come over here and I’ll show you my appreciation, whilst I’m on my knees and all?’

           Of course I wouldn’t be ‘OK’ with it.  I would regard it as a very sad – but ultimately necessary – instance of ‘collateral damage’.   Just as happens in every war.

           This is a good bit of trolling I’ll give you that but if there was really a ‘war’ between cyclists and motorists I’d think it would end up a bit like the army going to war against squirrels. Chances of getting any decent strikes in agains the motorist whilst cycling around from bridge to bridge with a backpack full of paving slabs is pretty much nil.

           Why stop at slabs? You could blow up petrol stations. Take away the fuel and they’d be in trouble. Get to it lad.

           My plan is to strap a convincing looking bomb with wires visible to the supports of the local motorway bridge.  It’s pretty much chaos on a normal day, but the entire region would grind to a halt if it happened.  If anyone tries this, could they let me know how it went please?  Asking for a friend.

           It has ‘worked’ for me every single time that I have (with a heavy heart) had to use it.  

           It’s entirely possible that the next time I have to do so, I’ll lose and get my face kicked in.  But I would rather that, than allow some entitled cumstain in a Audi, to bully me into submission.  

           That is evidently not a determination shared by most others on road.cc.

           Go on then. Can you give us an example of when violence worked for you? Perhaps you could give us the context, action and result? Remember that throwing your paperbag away becuase you were tired does not count as violence.

     The September attack happened after dark, the article moves on to that one at the end. I’ve noticed this happen a few times on road.cc and it takes a while to work out they’re talking about a different thing.

5. Until attacking a cyclist is
   Until attacking a cyclist is seen as a hate crime and prosecution for posting ‘attacks’ on social media becomes a thing, cyclists will be seen as fair game.
   We have a new generation of celebrity (or celebrity wannabe), who think nothing about harvesting ‘likes’, from their stupid / dangerous antics on videos and although some may well be fake, a lot of these attacks are very real and someone will get killed.
   Today I had YouTube advertise me to watch a video by a youtuber – dash cam Bristol, assumably because I watch cyclist / cycling videos and he has submitted called ‘cyclist vermin’, which had already had 21k views. Within 2.05mins the video shows his bullying a female cyclist in to a kerb before swearing and honking her. His followers all lapping it up. Time to make an example of them!!

       I think that vid sums attitudes pretty well, 1 female cyclist who was harrassed by the van gets the abuse from followers while the other 10 mins 45 secs of shitty driving in an 11 min video is accepted. OK, the second old fella on the bike could well have stopped, but our intrepid cameraman wouldn’t have been able to get a reaction if he’d driven more considerately. It’s almost like people can’t think.

   In reality, if caught, will face a small fine and an assault charge that will be waterered down by a solicitor arguing the attacker was having a hard time in life and didn’t intend to injure anyone.

   Yet again I ask why we collectively do nothing other than whinge about stories like this on road.cc, cyclists as a group appear depressingly unwilling to get organised and demand legislative change.

     What use is it if you ‘demand legislative change’ only to be ignored?

     They ignored a million of us in 2003.  What makes you think they won’t ignore a million cyclists, if by some miracle, that many protested now?

     It doesn’t need to be, and you could argue, it shouldn’t be, classed as a hate crime. It should just be treated in the same way as violence against the person is treated when away from the roads. If you did this type of thing in the local shopping mall (ie deliberately cause serious injury to another person), then you would be locked up for it – especially if you used a deadly weapon, which is what a motor vehicle potentially is.

     Society tends to classify hate crime as crimes against a group – the members of that group usually have no choice but to be members of that ‘group’ – ie LGBT, ethnic minorities, women, Jewish etc etc. These are not lifestyle choices, but cycling is. I get stick for being a vegan, but it’s not really a hate crime, as veganism is a choice.

          Prior to the establishment of the Irish Free State, ‘terror’ attacks were being carried out by the Fenians, targeting the British.  

          The British announced that thenceforth, every ‘terror’ attack would result in the hanging of ten people selected at random, from the area in which the attack took place.

          The attacks stopped overnight. 

          Look, I get it.  You’re peace-loving, all men are equal, dib-dib-dib.   But British cyclists are the subject of a campaign of intimidation, bullying, assault and murder.  You can keep suffering that, whilst begging the drivers to stop hurting you.  Or you can fight back. 

          <hands up in a ‘I give up’ sort of gesture>

          Not my problem anymore.  Or at least, it won’t be.
