Bingo. There were others that had like 100% accuracy with white people but couldn't differentiate between black people causing multiple false arrests.

Getting called a fascist is so tired for trying to help you out.

You're welcome to move to Houston or LA. They're paragons of car culture where everything is conveniently designed exclusively for cars. It's so much better for everyone.

Eh it's a daily conversation on this subreddit... or really any us-centric bicycling subreddit.

"you're crazy for wanting to ride a bike in NYC" "OK let's improve bike infrastructure so that it's less crazy" "how dare you."
