Unfortunately it's the all too common incident of todays adolescents
displaying their lower form of moral reasoning. They deserve no less
than a punch in the face, alas this would likely result in a custodial
sentence and the loss of ones career. So we end up a nation afraid of
its children - talk about the tail wagging the dog!

Bloody well done that man.

About time we all stood up to the yobs instead of sending them for
counselling sessions in Barbados (wherever).

Actually a good covering of fat will probably reduce the risk of serious
internal inuries from a knife attack.

Only because he personally, threatened, in print, to deliberately murder

well yes, that said being 6'5 and fairly well built means he's very
likely to have greater range and power than the teen.

Point is JC is making shed loads of money from his carefully crafted
persona-he is after all in one of the most disrespected
occupations-journalism.
He knows what he is doing its all scripted in his head.
Unfortunately a significant minority of his fans are either in short
trousers or like my son 30 going on 15--these fans can buy 240HP Japanese
cars for £800 on e-bay and then according to insurance/police statistics
commit mayhem on the roads.
JC stands for the mad bad old days when there were 6000? deaths per year
with a tiny fraction of todays 20 million cars.
The sooner he retires the better-thankfully his slimming seems to have
brought on decreptitude---role on his bumblings about wine from
some "undiscovered" corner of Europe------near an autobhan--perhaps.

Viewing figures of Top Gear and its positive value are two very separate
things.
They should have more bike/car races during rush hour though.

I took them literally, not in the "hilarious" way others have suggested on
his behalf.
Simply because of his audience. The UK national newspaper , our gutterpress
soaraway Sun.
Because I'm cetain his readership will take it literally - where his words
will encourage them to damage and wound perfectly harmless, benign legal
road users - cyclists.
HoHoHo.
