- Replying to @BikePortlandBTW if you pay attention to how people speak and write about "bicyclists" in Portland, this type of behavior should not surprise you at all. Just like when ppl purposely drive their cars into others, this is a result of normalization of anger/hate toward bicycle riders.

- You cannot reform this.
