E-bikes are excellent urban mobility devices. It turns out they’re also really good for catching e-bike riding crooks up to no good. This is exactly what cops are doing.

If I escape with clown shoes and a pogo stick, are the cops going to chase me in the same manner? Asking for a friend

It’s a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don’t be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
