You are right that you pretty much can’t eliminate edge cases, like addicts running in traffic at night.

However, Chicago is notoriously lawless for driving and a lot of these deaths were due to running red lights, lane violations, turning through peds at an intersection, etc. All of those can be addressed pretty effectively.

From another article

“The initial crash investigation revealed that a Mazda B2200 was traveling northbound on Clairemont Avenue in the center travel lane,” the spokesperson said. “A cyclist was also traveling northbound on Clairemont Avenue in the curb lane. The cyclist attempted to turn left, westbound, onto Ponce de Leon Place from the curb lane of Clairemont Avenue. This action led to the cyclist striking the passenger side of the Mazda.”

If the police spokesperson can be trusted, seems like a poor decision on the cyclist’s part. I don’t turn left from the curb lane, I either take the left/turn lane (if feasible) or just pull over and cross perpendicular when it’s clear.

RIP

The memeification/cutesiness of the name of this center and others (Cornhusker Clink, Speedway Slammer) are blackpilling honestly.

Yeah, I mean this is pretty obvious stuff. For anyone that didn’t read the article:

• People make choices based on what they perceive as efficient
• Sometimes you have to educate them about better options than driving
• Not all transit is good transit

Now one thing that wasn’t really addressed, but which should have been, is on-board experience of transit. Qualify of life issues seems silly to a lot of people to spend effort policing, but they matter. Guys on the subway smoking, playing music, smelling awful, etc. Even things as basic as people not taking their backpacks off leading to jostling and crowding. This all matters.

Is there any evidence this person was “constantly treated like garbage”? There is no excuse for murdering children.

Reddit’s AI report processing is terrible. I got permed for advocating violence, discussing a completely hypothetical self-defense situation in the passive voice. Literally anyone with a brain cell would have understood it was not advocating violence.

Country is great gonna be greater

Yes gender in quotes since there at least 7 different definitions floating around, some in the dictionary for decades, some floated on Tumblr circa 2012.

class > race > “gender”

The best thing that Democrats can do is come up with a popular governing vision and then storm back in the 2026 midterms.

Personally I would think this would have to compromise on immigration and the worst culture war excesses of the left, while emphasizing support for the working class and most importantly good governance.

Vermont tried for a version of universal healthcare about 10 years ago, and they decided the cost was too high.

Every state has a program for poor people that’s in part funded by Federal tax dollars.

You also have to address the free rider problem by vesting benefits in.

Laws against murder? Ok bud

That may be, but he did something illegal.

He outright murdered a man, nothing to protest.

This seems pretty much like the best of all possible outcomes until you remember that Cuomo would very likely replace him.

it’s just more кто кого shit

This is a good thing
