Not to correct you or anything, but I can see how anyone could think it is 3 articles about 3 differant people.
OK. How could "Complete Streets" have helped this one cyclist? You haven't linked the problem with your proposed solution.

That's just silly. Here, N_C gives articles about a cyclist's death, and then uses it to advance his agenda without explaining how his agenda would help have helped the dead cyclist. I criticize HH sometimes, but N_C is doing exactly what a lot of you criticize HH for doing, except N_C provides no reasoning to advance his agenda. Just emotion.
