Quoted message said:Hey, we get screamed at, doored at, spitted upon, pushed around and
even killed, isn't it time we enjoy the same benefits as other
Americans? When is a cyclist going into a rage and mow down all those
careless SUV drivers who make us feel worthless?
Imagine this scenario: You get hit and as you roll down the pavement
you draw and...
I guess we cyclists are too pacific for that (or just that we aren't
Republicans), but in light of all that violence out there, shouldn't
we rethink our strategy (everyone to himself) and get together to
launch a good nonviolent campaign?

Still Bush defends the right to bear arms
EVEN as President George Bush told the nation he was praying for the
victims, and that the killings in a place of learning would affect
"every American classroom and community", a White House official said
Mr Bush continued to believe in the "right to bear arms".

BIKE FOR PEACEhttp://webspawner.com/users/bikeforpeace
I think there are way to many guns, way to easy to get them BUT they
are there and are not going to go away but a clearly insane person
like Cho should not have been able to buy a gun..THAT needs to be
fixed somehow.
It would be nice.
Then again, the largest mass murder in US history occured in
1990 ( I may have the year wrong ) when an unemployed Cuban in NYC
torched a nightclub called, funny enough, HappyLand, killing 87
people. His weapon was a gallon of gas and a match. In 1986, an
arson in a hotel in SAn Jaun killed 97.
How do we stop deadly things from falling into the wrong hands ?
Often we can't.
