    Know the place and fools too. They tried here in New
    London Ct a few years ago but got nowhere. New london isn't a bike
    town like NYC. It is nick named little New York due to the spanish pop.

    If you could only live in a country with "real" dictator, it would be
    interesting to see how you would feel, what you would say, and especially
    what you would do. I'm betting you would not survive very long, you would
    most definitely not be able to run off at the mouth with [censored] like this.
    Get a life, your politics are not getting you very far.

    Man, you have one self-righteous bug up your ass. I was commuting from my
    office from Chelsea and ran into Critical Mass on the way to Manhattan
    bridge. The cops had paddy wagons and blocked the riders from both ends of
    blocks near tenth St & 2nd Ave and arresting people and taking their bikes
    at random. Not people who ran red lights or were riding on the sidewalk.
    Just anybody who were on a bike near the police gaunlet. It was obviously
    planned from the beginining. NYC is the least bike-friendly town as far as
    I know, as far as laws concerning bike theft, # of bike designated lanes,
    etc. You may not agree with their methods, but at least Critical Mass's aim
    is to do something about it.

    You have no idea. I lived in the Philippines under the Marcos
    dictatorship and if you say something like this, you'd be shot.

    I don't know if you are referring to me or to the original poster, but
    either way, it's not being afraid to use a real name, it more like not
    wanting idiots like you posting it all over the web. Beside how do you
    know I'm not using my real name?
