 @5e7f4176 and he'll sit for 5-7 years inside another building he paid for 
 @5e7f4176 

These types are always talking about paying for public infrastructure as if they are some sort of venture capitalist for paying taxes like everybody.

The anti-bike ones are the worst for this, always saying that cyclists need to pay for their own roads when we already pay for the roads the motorists drive on and cause 99% if the costs and maintenace for. Yet not one single cyclist has ever violently forced a motorist off the road, while screaming and shouting about paying taxes. 
 @5e7f4176 But does he go to the Sing Sing Correctional Facility? 
 @5e7f4176 good
