Come to San Francisco, last Friday of every month and deal with cycling Mongrel hordes AKA Critical Mass.

That is an asinine comparison — even for someone who hates cyclists.

He said he may have worded it a bit strong. However he says he has had death threats.

And he added: "Perhaps that was a bit strong [to compare them to the Islamic State] but I can't think of a single other movement in the world at the moment that behaves in such a vitriolic and aggressive manner." Feminists

These weenies get on their 12 pound bikes and try muscling cars around, because they’re “equal in the eyes of the law.” Not the laws of physics, pal. They’ll come through your window and grab you, if it’s rolled down.

It’s been done. They act in packs. If you’re having a problem with one, two or three will get in front of your car.

two or three will get in front of your car. Sounds like a "target rich environment".

Well, in Portland most folks will refrain from running over cyclists on purpose. And the cyclists know it.

Dashcams, like in Russia.
Do these guys actually assault cars? If they do, I don’t know why they couldn’t be soaked down with MACE or pepper spray.

They take their "right of way" equality very seriously. They will throw bikes that may cost $5K at windshields. They will throw bikes under cars to stage "accidents."
The tip of the iceberg.

Well Your Honor, when he threw his bike at my windshield, I thought he was giving it to me....so I accepted it and left.
Those actions sound like aggravated assault, and self-defense should be allowed.

Most of these occur in Lib citadels. I’d wager most are on unarmed people. But, yeah, take the bike. “FOUND: Very expensive bicycle. Call to identify and discuss reward.”
