Where did i say that stops should never apply to bikes, all of you that lack reading comprehension?

I stop on occasion. I never stop on my morning commute if it is at 4:40am, because there's essentially no one on the road.

At 7ish, i sometimes have to stop at 1 or 2 lights because traffic is busier.

At Noon, is usually stop at least once, usually on snelling, unless the light is in my favor of course.

If it's safe to do so, i run lights and stops. Safe to do so means i'm not going to get hit, people i'm riding with that might follow me through won't get hit, and there are no police around.

Aparently the "civics lesson" was over your head, since you missed my point entirely.
