Today in a local Toronto paper, some idiot parrot media writer wrote
that
"25% of all red light runners produce a fatality."
I double-taked on this because I didn't think anyone could BE this
clueless.  If that
were the case, then there would be multiple thousands of deaths each
year in Toronto
because there are undoubtedly 10s of thousands of incidents of red
light runners.

Do these media morons graduate junior high math class?  I doubt it.

Second thing;  IF the red light running fatality production rate was
even a fraction of what
this idiot claimed, then WHY isn't red light running a felony?  Because
the Feds are making
street racing a felony, and it's fatality rate is a fraction of a
percent.

Third thing;  The banning in Toronto of "pocket bikes."  The claims by
the faggot politicians?
-They  are too hard for drivers to see.  They are noisy.
First of all, all bike riders ride lower than most cars and if someone
is to munchkin-like to see
over the dash of their car, then they shouldn't be allowed on the road.
Second, the average YUPPIE'S Harley is 10x as noisy as the buzzy pocket
bikes and they don't
ban them, so again, it seems like laws made to attack a certain class
of people, not a specific
problem.

I suspect the writer meant that 'red light runners' eventually kill some
one, in refering to the ''runner'' not the ''incidents''.

But his point still stands, because if that were true, I know I should
be getting caught up in a detour for a fatality red light running every
day.
