Why are the comments on Dirk's articles closed? I wanted to point out the guy wouldn't have been cited if he'd hit another car. It's got nothing to do with bikes, it's all about Dirk's wrong idea of what the cops are for. The accident he described was property damage - it's a civil matter, and better for the civil courts.

JDowdy is angry because somebody called adult females "girls". Surprising she doesn't also chastise the Merc for not using the "wymyn" spelling.

I've never heard anyone complain about adult males being called "boys", which of course happens just as often.

Some people's lives are so devoid of meaning that they have to find some way to be a victim so they can go around tilting at windmills. Well, JDowdy, there are plenty of real examples of sexism, so you can still go around being all bitchy to everyone but it would be awesome if you could pick a real thing to nag people about.
