Clear proof that some cyclists are psycholists.

Default Bicycle kills 14 in one go. Good job it wasn't a car used instead.

Good job it wasn't a car as the bomb would have been even bigger and
caused even more deaths, like this one that killed two dozen.

A driving licence is sometimes a licence to kill.

Why do you attempt to trivialise the use of a bicycle as a killing device?

Could it be because as killing devices go, a bicycle would seem to be a
pretty pathetic one?



Please tell that to the families involved.

No thank you - whether a death be caused through a pathetic killing
device or not, is of no conciliation to the family involved.

The point I was trying to make, however, relates to the potential number
of families involved through different relative killing devices.



at what level of killing do they become unremarkable?

There is no such level of killing for any killing device - indeed, we
need to know exactly how many individual deaths can be attributed to
each and every killing device for any meaningful comparison to be made.



an atom bomb is probably the most instantly destructive device, so does that
mean that all others are trivial?
