109 people have signed the petition demanding @MayorOfLA Karen Bass hold a public forum to listen to the risks we face walking and biking on the mean streets of Los Angeles. Let's get it over 200! Click on the photo to sign now! https://t.co/q3CXpWib2A

@jrb1713 @AmericanFietser The person using their bike seems more self sufficient than you

@EArtandstuff @adamtotscomix The comics did that too. Won’t judge the show until I watch it but both Scott and Ramona go through a lot of development to choose each other in the end.

People forget that there was a time when “jaywalking” was simply called walking.

That’s before the auto industry ramped up a century-long campaign to shift the public’s idea of what streets were for - from streets for people to streets for cars. https://t.co/mDJqyuMzM7

@barzinh @AllenCowgill E-bikes are plenty good. The average American might but it’s also their car that is likely to put them in the hole if anything goes wrong. Many people are screwed financially if their car breaks down. And many cannot afford to lose days to take care of car repairs and rentals

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill Enjoy your lifeless day in traffic

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill It’s happening around the country. It’s just people like you that get in the way of the voters

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill Lol

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill Look up Robert Moses if you want to learn about the racism and classism that he used to do his urban planning

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill It is fully feasible if we fund it like we funded highways. That was massively overfunded and tore down low income and minority neighborhoods to make it easy for a suburbanite to get around without talking to a poor person

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill I am but I stand by my statements. I know it is a large part of why society is divided and why energy consumption is so high. EVs will never solve the problem of consumption

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill You would know that’s the truth if you looked into it. Auto industries lobbied hard and advertised hard to push people into car ownership. The word jaywalking was invented by auto ads

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill Many don’t, your assumption is that the 10% or so of people who don’t own cars shouldn’t have good public transit of micro mobility infrastructure. You also assume that people can understand how easily a car can sink them financially. Many Americans are awful with money

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill Then don’t get in the way when people vote to implement good transit options. Leave your city for a car centric suburbia no where near a real city

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill Americans have been brainwashed since the 1940s by the auto industry using racism and classism to prevent traditional means of transportation from being convenient. People have forgotten what it is to just walk and bike around their cities and many would enjoy it if they did

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill People can do that in Japan and Europe easily without cars. There’s plenty of comfort with many buses and trains that serve 90% of people’s need. America just sucks because we refuse to fund it

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill It’s also on average about $12000 a year that a family can save per car. That’s way higher for new and leased vehicles.

[Kev @chemist_kev]

@dbsb3233 @AllenCowgill It will also help make America less obese if people are actually moving and being active. Over reliance on cars and tiring commutes is a big reason why Americans are overweight
