Yes he is scum, but the fact remains that vehicle drivers (especially
cars) cause hundreds more hit & runs per year than cyclists do and sadly
it is getting worse.

Does that make the cyclist any less scum than he is?

Yes / No [delete as appropriate]

If "No", what is the relevance of your mentioning it?

Your diversionary tactics are at the very least, childish and blatantly
obvious. You appear a sad individual on a cyclist hating mission.
For clarity; *Every* hit and run accident perpetrator I class as a low
life. The fact remains (which you deliberately avoided) is that the vast
majority are caused by vehicles.
Do you deny this fact?

Don't evade the question.

Was your answer a "yes" or a "no"?

You are very obtuse (thick, if you like).

Try and read again: "*Every* hit and run accident perpetrator I class as
a low life" obviously means, *they are *all* scum *equally* and *all*
includes vehicles AND cyclists*.

Step back and calm down for a few seconds. Then ask yourself whether it
is REALLY necessary to lard every condemnation of a chav law-breaking
cyclist with a contrived get-out clause to the effect that some other
people are just as bad?

It doesn't MATTER what other people do. There is absolutely no need to
try to spread that cyclist's wrongdoing onto others.

Try it again. It's easy.

Just condemn that cyclist without mentioning anyone else. Just like you
would a driver who was the subject of such a story.

I find *The Wriggler's* replies as highly amusing ramblings of a sad
case. He reminds me of nutters that stand on street corners shouting at
cyclists amongst the traffic.
