The second paragraph, I believe, is probably a deliberate misstatement of opinions I expressed in previous posts. Maybe you use negative attacks because you believe they are effective. That's fine with me, since you're proving my point.

The rest of the post contained some interesting points. Some I agreed with and some I didn't. But I'm not going to respond to them right now because, frankly, it quit being fun when you went all attack dog on me. I come here for enjoyment and to learn; I really don't expect to change anybody's mind. When it quits being fun, I just leave for a while.

To rephrase, a lively discussion of differing opinions is fun and enlightening, but the personal lies and slurs in the first paragraph are, IMO, a real buzz kill for me and undoubtedly for others. Again, i request that you honorably remove that paragraph. An apology would also be nice, but that's on you. At any rate, I don't believe I said anything negative about you whatsoever, or at least I hope not.

See Post 5 . Your post, in Post 5 was extremely offensive to a large number of people.

So ... I await an apology from you on behalf of all the people you attacked in that post. Thank so much.

And when you remove your Post 5 ... I'll remove my posts calling you out on your offensive comments: ... advocating negativity ... advocating shaming people into a car-free lifestyle ... calling people who use cars failures ... calling people lazy wimps for not using cycling infrastructure ...
