Man the worst part about that isn't the sonofa###### that plowed through dozens of people but the flood of comments on youtube <i>supporting</i> the driver with quotes like:
<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->"they got what they deserve. who are they to block a public road and for what? for a ###### retard reason. I don't blame the owner of the golf he must coming back from work exhausted and wanting to return home quickly to rest but then he find this these hippies blocking the road."<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
and
<!--quoteo--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'><!--quotec-->"Honestly, the cyclists are blocking important commutes by people working two or three jobs to provide for their families, (in Brazil no less) and nobody gives a ###### about that.

No, no I think the worst about it is the sonofa###### who plowed through dozens of people. Youtube ###### are just business as usual. Still, the attitudes on display are a bit troubling. I hope I never reach the point where I view anyone not inside my encapsulated vehicle as less than human.
It's one thing to disagree with those organised bike rides, and I think there is legitimate reason for complaint when the cyclists are blocking the road in both directions. But mowing them all down is completely out of the question and only widens the cyclist/driver divide.

The youtube comments are not even the second worst thing (Though it is safe to say they are scum of the earth). The (second) worst thing is how the police are handling it. From the updates in the video description it sounds as if the police are shrugging it off on the basis that the protest was illegal. The organizers did not go through the proper channels to inform the city, and as such the city is more or less saying "This is what you get". This is not to say they have dropped the investigation entirely, but it is entirely half-hearted. The police had the identity of the driver on the 26th, but decided rather than bringing him in that they would wait for him to come forward voluntarily.
Furthermore, the Chief of Police is waiting to hear the drivers "version of the facts" to determine if it was intentional. I find it very hard to believe that he accidentally drove into a crowd of one hundred and fifty people. Unless it is legal to drive blind in Brazil there is really no excuse for this. The fact that the protest was illegal shouldn't allow this guy any sort of leniency for his actions. If the driver had a problem with the protest he should have called the police, and with any luck they'd have come down to deal with the issue. Much in the same way that if your loved ones were maliciously assaulted you would expect the police to do everything they could to track down and prosecute the assailant. It is like they are trying to set a precedent for vigilantism.
This is of course ignoring the fact that <b>they already have all the facts they need.</b> They have video evidence of the driver accelerating through the crowd. Even if it was some sort of accident he is still culpable for whatever Brazil has as an equivalent to Recklessness or Gross/Criminal Negligence.
Started a new thread to keep the youtube thread from going off topic. Please conduct further discussion of the "Driver assaults dozens of cyclists in Brazil" in <a href="http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=113316" target="_blank">this thread.</a> Thank you.
