Pedestrians are second class citizens, why didn't you just get in your Canyonero and drive two feet.

Bike lanes are DEI now. They will come for other forms of human ambulation soon.

America is completely unwalkable already. It is crazy almost everybody basically has to have a car and drive to get groceries. Totally by design. European countries arent designed so that literally everyone has to have a car to do anything.

Even to the point that once you get out of your vehicle in a parking lot, there is no safe pathway and you are fair game.

To be fair, most of those cities developed long before anything other than walking was an option. The oldest parts of America's first cities were/are similar.

Cars made Suburbs feasible, and Suburbs made cars necessary.

I know a couple cyclist that buy into the conservative side of that argument. Guess who also bitches constantly about almost being hit.

Pedestrians are second class citizens

not much better if they park the other way around. leaving the hitch on and having it stick out in a parking lot where it is often hard to see it sticking out is a dick move in general.

It's a bigger dick move to keep the hitch on when you're not hauling anything.
