From anyone else, these comments could be laughed off as ignorant.
But from a self-important, self-described leader like Soglin, this is
sad. He actually
has some control over biking in the city, such as whether the paths
get plowed.
I think he should apologize.
Quoting "STRAWSER, Charles" <[email protected]>:
If there have been hateful remarks made, they were not made by those
questioning his remarks on this list (unless I missed something). They were
made by Paul Soglin. And I'm not even talking about the 2007 comment that he
said was tongue-in-cheek. I'm talking about what he said less than ten days
ago while campaigning outside the Willy St Co-op:
"people who bike in winter
should have their head examined."
