I have to disagree.
The cyclist clearly knew the driver and did a double take when he realised who it was he was cycling past.
It looks like a personal vendetta or a gang related feud.

The cyclist victim of the cowardly hit and run has left the court a free man!
Drinks all round, well done that judge. :-)

But an Old Bailey judge told Gardner he would only be given a suspended
sentence because he was wielding the knife after a ten-day kidnap ordeal
in which he was held at gunpoint.

A (two year) suspended sentence for attacking someone (or making the
attempt as best he could) with an offensive weapon like that? Even if
the intended victim *was* a drug dealer who had kidnapped the assailant
on a previous occasion, we don't have capital punishment fordrug-dealing
(though maybe we ought to).

You think John Sainsbury should be executed for selling water, sugar and caffeine to the public?


Which of those things are classified illegal drugs?

Irrelevant to uk.rec.cycling

Have you not seen the video?


Yes. The case is irrelevant to uk.rec.cycling


I'm inclined to tentatively agree with that in a strict sense.

However, replies to the (irrelevant) OP are not irrelevant, for obvious
reasons.


I was replying to you. And in general, I agree with what SimonJ said above.

At first sight the case may have seemed relevant. But now the dust has
settled it turns out it has nothing to do with the behaviour of road
users - "cyclists" or "motorists".

You might agree or disagree with the outcome of the court case. You
might have an opinion on the way society appears to be changing. OT for
this group.

That is also how it looked to me on first seeing the video.

I only disagree with the sentence and with any assertions to the effect
that ithreally ad anything to do with cycling, which it plainly did not.

But remarks had been made here by the OP cyclist (to the implied effect
that it is acceptable for cyclists to carry grossly offensove weapons
and to attempt to do serious harm to others with such weapons in
consequence of traffic accidents) and were capable of being addressed
for that reason.

You did not specify 'illegal' drug dealer, only drug dealer.
If tobacco was discovered tomorrow and tested for fitness for human consumption it would be banned, as would alcohol.
More people have died from water overdose than certain naturally growing herbs that are deemed illegal by the users of said herbs.

JS also sell potatoes and barley from which poitin can be, illegally, made.
Actually anyone can buy a pot still and illegally distill their own spirits so why are cannabis seedlings illegal?
The difference is if you get the temperature wrong with a still you go blind from the methanol, cannabis plants simply die.

Countries all over the world are starting to teach the ignorant that

cannabis is not only one of the most versatile drugs, but a far safer
alternative to drink for recreational use.
You don't get violent fights with cannabis use.
A&E depts dread the weekend when hoardes of drunks get brought in to get
patched up from mindless fighting.

The thing is Nugent is proposing executing people for this.
He thinks we should take a human out of their prison cell, march them down the corridor, put them in a room and snuff out their life for possessing Vodka.

Don't tell me.

Tell your MP.

Let him or her have a laugh with their secretary about you after you've
gone.

Have you thought of asking your MP?

They can write to the Home Office and get a standard cut'n'pasted reply
written a junior civil servant, but signed by a junior minister, for you.

The difference is if you get the temperature wrong with a still you go blind from the methanol, cannabis plants simply die.


See above.
