Especially unacceptable when Lee is the one who is demonstrably wrong by saying that new roads "just fill up with traffic" (something which has been repeatedly shown to be false, and one of the surest signs that you're dealing with an irrational car-hater who will use any misinformation they can get their hands on to "win" the argument).

We've had some real gems from Lee lately: the above car-haters' cliche, the Doug-like "Juries in cycling-related cases should have an artificially large percentage of cyclists [because evil non-cycling motorists are untrustworthy and biased]", "All newsgroups should be moderated", and of course the piece de resistance about how one should falsely report anecdotally "dangerous" cabbies for kiddie-fiddling. He says more obviously and self-evidently idiotic things than perhaps anyone else. Even Chapman's stuff often appears convincing at first glance, until you scratch the surface and find the deceit.
