Everett's statements are much needed. We used to ride in Critical Mass, but stopped due to all of the anger displayed. It is silly to ask for justice with such foolish behavior. <br><br>The critical mass in Chicago is peace-full and parade-like. It is only proof that this behavior is not necessary. <a href="http://chicagocriticalmass.org/about">http://chicagocriticalmass.org/about</a><br>

<div>Thanks, Ben - I agree. It is sometimes worthwhile to discuss what we think of the ride and the role it plays.<br>
<br>
As someone who has mostly ridden mass in San Francisco, and only once here in Boston, and once in New York, I do think (from the little I have seen) that this mass rides less gracefully than I would like. I'm not making an argument for a strict constructionist adherence to the vehicularist playbook at all, but do think people need to learn to play nice. <br>
<br>
And I largely agreed with Everett's original assessment.<br>
