As someone has already pointed out, there are plenty of motorists killed on roads each year, but you don't see car manufacturers running around and making a song and dance about the fact.
1) I typically skip over your obnoxious red text. Not sure why I read it here...
2) Your "point" seems to simply be argumentative. Parents that stopped letting their kids ride because of a mural... yea right. Like we should care about anyone whose convictions blow that easily on the wind.
Then a comparison between your opinion of cyclists and the behavior of car manufacturers? How is that relevant?
I mean, do you always try to make your point by comparing two totally unrelated things?
