Both of you have been brainwashed by Vision Zero to hate anyone who dares to drive instead of using mass transit even when it is a poor alternative. |

No. That is clearly what you are saying, as has been made clear by your continued posting demonstrating the contempt you have for the pedestrians of this good city. |

He understood what you wrote AND CHANGED IT to something else he could attack.This reminds me of the military. When planning a battle, they know there will be casualties. In R30's case, the casualties are TRUTH and YOU. He's willing to accept those casualties. |

Posters don't want to become the object of attack.Goji wrote reasonable and measured responses and they have been twisted. The truth is people are judged more by their actions than their words. Terrapin and R30 don't START posts. They AMBUSH posts. |

We've been telling you for years that most people here disagree with you, and practically all the respected knowledgeable trustworthy-proven members who participate in threads with you also disagree with you. Why did it take you so long to realize that we are right? Thanks to you and Nostalgia for supporting me. It's good to know that there are at least two sane people on this board.They my be sane but they're not correct. With support form people like that, who needs enemies? LOL! The fact that you *appreciate* support from people like them just further cements your status as a clueless person. |

No sure where you are qualified to make that decision. Good to know nonetheless. |

Most people are saying BrooklynBus is correct but I'm staying out of this because I don't want to get into a conversation with TS and also get on his enemies list.And here you go again with your nob-stop insults that you deny making by insisting all your accusations are correct while offering not the slightest bit of evidence. And you still never admitted you were wrong about stating capacity is a function of service saying you can't increase capacity without increasing service. JayZee and I both showed you that if you increase the size of the bus, you can increase capacity without increasing service. Now let's see how you will reword what you stated so as to deny you were wrong. |

Posted by nostalgia on Thu May 26 17:25:47 2016, in response to Re: Thanks! (But no thanks!), posted by BrooklynBus on Thu May 26 17:18:10 2016. Brooklyn Bus:Haven't you figured it out. TS lives in Wonderland, with Alice. The Queen of Hearts says "Sentence first-- verdict afterwards." NUMBER: 2019 AUTHOR: Lewis Carroll (1832–98) QUOTATION: “When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.” “The question is,” said Alice, “whether you can make words mean so many different things.” “The question is,” said Humpty Dumpty, “which is to be master—that’s all.” TS is like Humpty Dumpty, changing word definitions to suit himself so he is always right. I don't remember the MTA routing a bus to Wonderland. |

Posted by BrooklynBus on Thu May 26 17:27:39 2016, in response to Re: Dictatorship not Democracyn, posted by R30A on Thu May 26 13:03:05 2016. Make up all the lies you want to say about me. Only about three people here agree with you anyway.I have no contempt for pedestrians. I am one also. BUT YOU HAVE CLEARLY DISPLAYED YOUR CONTEMPT FOR ANYONE WHO DRIVES A CAR. You have clearly stated the MAJORITY of drivers are bad, when that number is closer to 10 percent. If the majority of drivers were as bad as you say they are, there would be hundreds of pedestrians killed every single day, not mention the hundreds every day that would be killed in their cars. The fact is your chances are greater of being struck by lightning than being killed crossing the street which we discussed before by examining the numbers. Over 99 percent of the street crossings made every day by pedestrians are done without incident. That's millions of safe street crossings every day. That would never be the case if the streets were as dangerous as Vision Zero claim they are. |

Your inference is totally erroneous.I said nothing about people disagreeing with me not being sane. I was referring to the same two or three who constantly attack everything I post by changing what I say and accusing me of stating things I never stated. If you disagree with sonething I posted, I would be glad to have a rational discussion with you unless you prove to me you are not able to do that. Two sane people can surely agree to disagree. |

I am looking to have rationale discussions about facts which those two are incapable of and that's by their choice because they can't admit they are wrong when you get them boxed into a corner. They have to always prove they are correct, hence the tactics they use. |

About 100 are killed in car crashes every day. But I never said most drivers are bad...

No. Risk of dying by being hit by a car in a given year. 1 in 47K. Risk of dying by being hit by lightning in a given year. 1 in 4370K. Lightning is roughly 100 times less likely. "Over 99 percent of the street crossings made every day by pedestrians are done without incident." That isn't very good. Luckily it is much higher. "That's millions of safe street crossings every day." And tens of thousands of unsafe street crossings too, assuming your numbers. Simply unacceptable. "That would never be the case if the streets were as dangerous as Vision Zero claim they are." Deaths due to unsafe drivers IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. PERIOD. Why are you incapable of understanding that? |

It's self evident to everybody but you and R30.You're just a little boy who grew up into a little man with attention deficit order and low self esteem. You don't start threads just attack others who do to make yourself feel important. You're jealous of posters who have transit jobs because you'll never have a transit job. Your jealousy makes you think that you know more than transit employees on EVERYTHING. The list just doesn't want to deal with you. You are a cancer that drives people off this board because you want to be supreme. The more you write, the more you reveal yourself so everybody can see your true motivations aren't benevolent. |
