    Summary death to bicycle thieves, and anyone else actively wrecking the world. I am averse to the death penalty in most cases, but bicycle thieves are actively wrecking their communities. Someone rides a bike because they:

    • Have no other option
    • Are trying to improve their health
    • Are living car-free or car-lite
    • Are trying to enjoy the locals with active transportation OR
    • Are complying with a court-ordered driving suspension

    Stealing bicycles undermines these goals and poisons the community.

    Of course, we could easily scale this up to, say, almost all CEOs of megacorporations.

      Getting your bike stolen is one of the worst feelings, too. Mine is my transportation and excercise, how I get to work and how I unwind.

      Most bikes aren’t insured, like a car. There are resources to register your bike for free (Garage 529) in case it gets stolen. But unless people are actively searching for your bike, or someone tries to pawn it, on one’s checking those things.

      If I caught someone trying to steal my bike I think I’d be within my rights to take a finger.
