"The only difference between a weed and a flower, is a judgement." Anon.

And, yes, I include myself.... So, outside the parliamentery procedures responses (and responses to responses), the threads in the threads of the judgements (both in car and on the bike and forums) are a confusing (or merely confounding) opinion of the colonizer paradigm (remembering that peds and cars were already established) that the invaded/colonized should be held to a higher standard of morality, law and pacifism. Despite the catastrophic potential of one form of "transportation" over the other. That catastrophic form also pollutes heavily from creation to end of use. It causes so much devastation. But the colonized are supposed to accept this....

No one is above anyone else. To choose actions in disregard of others, and earth, drives us all to ruin....

(As a related aside: Why do motorized operators "drive" their vehicles, while bicycle operators "ride"? Quite the opposite, since the ICE actually takes them for a ride while we provide the drive to our drive trains! Curiouser and curiouser, Alice....)
