Wow. I know the car-haters aren't exactly renowned for their intelligence or rationality. I do know that. It's hard not to when you've been subjected to as much of their crap as I have. But all the same, it *still* surprises me again and again just how *incredibly* fucking thick TeethKey is. Just when you think you've finally plumbed the depths of where his IQ is, he shows that it's at least another 10 points lower. Simply astonishing. (Here's a clue, you fucking idiotic moron: HOW OFTEN DOES JUDITH TALK ABOUT CAR-HATERS?)

It's been said before that all you need to do to determine whether speed cameras work is to look at the sorts of people who advocate cameras. Chapman and Spindrift are the two who immediately spring to mind: not a single speed camera opponent is even 1% as much of a lying, twisted, scheming, callous piece of shit as either of those two complete bastards. But Keitht is another good example: there isn't anyone who is different story when it comes to camera advocates: many of them are almost offensively thick, deciding that just because "Stick to the speed limit and everything will be fine" is simple enough for their pathetic little brains to comprehend, that must be how it actually is, and no-one had better dare claim otherwise ("RTTM? 85th percentile?  I don't understand them so they're obviously not important.")
 * anywhere near* as stupid as him on the anti-camera side. Yet it's a

Lying, car-hating cnuts who know cameras are killing people (e.g. Chapman, Spindrift), thick cretins who want everything to be as simple as they are (e.g. Keitht), callous shits who are benefitting financially from cameras and care more about that than about the carnage that they're causing, and those who aren't aware of all the facts about cameras: those groups of people make up at least 99% of all camera supporters. Rational, decent, honest, sane people who know the facts and don't have any vested interests or axes to grind are *extremely* rarely out-and-out speed camera supporters: I wonder why?
