Reply to comment by Fattom23 in Pro-Pedestrian/Biking City Council/Mayoral Candidates by Fattom23

2.6% of the population rides bikes last I checked.

Like I said, literally the least important thing. So unimportant that you are literally scrounging for someone to vote for.

This isn’t just about bikes, try being a pedestrian. Or do you never walk? Look at this fucking intersection I came upon in my neighborhood last week. Three of four crosswalks are completely obstructed by parked cars in the middle of the day. That’s absurd and fucking unacceptable.

Three cyclists died in car accidents this month. What’s the point of trying to convince people that they shouldn’t care about the safety of cyclists? Should we not care about homicides because less than 1 percent of the city will be victims?

You know, I gotta hand it to you: some people who didn't know the answer to my question would have just scrolled past. I appreciate the extra effort you put into trying to convince me that the things I thought were important actually don't matter.

100% of people will be affected by climate change, so getting people out of single-occupancy vehicles is a reasonable goal for any politician at any level.
