      Doesn’t matter. I was a bike messenger for 5 years. We all carried our U-Locks, some carried crowbars, batons, pistols, bear mace, stun guns… None of that matters when someone in a 2 ton death missile can basically light you out from behind faster than you can react.

      The problem is and forever will be drivers.

        jesus christ, no it’s not. The last thing you want to do is pull a gun on someone who can also have a gun but has a several thousand pound death machine that can outrun you.

          I’ll just shoot the tires…

          But in all seriousness, yes, you’re right. I don’t know what it is with those gigantic climate-changing-machines that makes their drivers feel so entitled.
