Hypothetically, yeah. But we both know that's not what he was referring to.

So if you blow a light/sign and,God forbid, get hit, you know to blame it on yourself.

From the Bicycle Coalition of Philadelphia's web site:
Is it OK to ride against traffic?
No, with two exceptions. Bicycles are legal vehicles and, therefore, are required to ride in the same direction as motor vehicles in traffic. Riding against traffic—“contraflow riding,” as it’s called—is only allowed on streets where there is a specific contraflow bike lane, or a two-way bike lane.
Are bicyclists allowed to roll through Stop Signs?
No. All vehicles are required to stop at stop signs. Failure to yield at Stop Signs is potentially dangerous for pedestrians looking to cross the street. So, please stop at Stop signs—and follow all other street signs and markings—including traffic lights, yield signs, and crosswalks.
Can I ride my bike on the sidewalk?
Are you 13 years of age or younger? Then sure, go ahead. Otherwise, you should ride on the street. Riding on the sidewalk is dangerous for pedestrians and drivers won’t expect you in the crosswalk when entering intersections.

> I see a lot of bikes roll through red lights and stop signs. I rarely see any signaling.
Sad how you're getting downvoted for an absolute fact

We all know big cities will never be car free, so instead of imagining the impossible, we need to find realistic solutions

No, they're not., and you're completely delusional to think they are. You're who can't defend your position in any way. You can't even offer a hint of a solution, but you just blabber about how others are wrong and you;re right with nothing to support your nonsense.
And trust me; a whole lot of people don't care about you in any way, shape, or form. All your downvotes in your last argument prove that.

Equal rights that any criminal gets, sure. As for the rest of your nonsense, that's just what it is...nonsense. You know that, too, but you choose to be condescending because that's all you have. The truly laughable part is that you somehow believe you're superior because of your nonsense,which, I assure you, you are not. lol

So you really have no solution, or even a suggestion of one, so you give a completely condescending answer that says nothing.. Not surprising in the least.
And, no; they don't get the rights and privileges afforded adults because they committed a violent crime. That makes zero sense. But I think deep down, you know that. They deserve no special treatment. None.
Ans it's not a matter of feeling scared. It's a matter of feeling safer. There's a difference. You know that, too, but it doesn't agree with your agenda.

How about both? And it's not a matter of "feeling good." That's nonsense to support your "but they're children" agenda.. It's a matter of feeling safer, one criminal at a time.
But OK. I'll play...what's your detailed plan to solve the problem?

No. That's your opinion. And I never said it was THE solution. But it's definitely part of it. "Data" means nothing when people are being robbed, beaten, and killed almost daily.

Actually it does. It gets more criminals off the streets away from decent people. Obviously not the entire solution, but if you don't see that as helping to stop the problem, you're blind, dude.

And that's exactly the felonies where "children" need to be tried/sentenced as adults.

Yup, because we're talking about felonies that involve violence, burglary, etc.

Criminals should be treated as such, especially when it involves a felony.They don;t need any limits removed.

For sure. Best description I ever heard of James' music was, "No matter what time you listen to it, it always feels like midnight."

Have been there. TBH, his legacy is much more exciting than his grave. FYI if you didn't know, Bessie Smith is in Mt. Lawn Cemetery. Grave was unmarked for 30+ years until Janis Joplin paid for a tombstone. Also, while only blues-related, Sister Rosetta Tharpe is in Northwood Cemetery
