Why not run for council if you feel so strongly that our current council is ineffective, old fashioned, closed minded, afraid of change? Seems that it'd be a slam dunk if the majority agreed with you!

If you believe that political, civic, and social change - for better and worse - can only be helped or hindered by the few who win one of a handful of elected positions, then you have a rather naive view of the way our system works. And I doubt that you are that naive.

Nor do I think that you are so naive as to believe that the safely of the separated lane above is somehow obviated by a lack of helmets.

In both cases, you are throwing up red-herring objections rather than debating the merits of the case. Which is one aspect of trolley, isn't it?
