Washington Post columnist urges violence against cyclists

Last July, Washington Post columnist Courtland Milloy endorsed violence against cyclists, saying:

Courtland Milloy wrote:

It’s a $500 fine for a motorist to hit a bicyclist in the District, but some behaviors are so egregious that some drivers might think it’s worth paying the fine.

Of course, he was quickly taken to task by the Washington Area Bicyclist Association.

Milloy is also a hypocrite, since he once had his license suspended for speeding.
