Cyclists can't murder motorists with their bikes though, can they?
It seems pretty logical to assume to me that you'd almost always have fewer ped fatalities if more people were biking instead of driving.

The original context was shared country trails; I guess your comment was due to a misreading rather than intentional goalpost-moving but the way those arguing for cyclists seem to leap immediately to deny all and any misdemeanours and bridle at any criticism doesn't help good faith discussions.
Suggesting it was to justify aggression and violence towards anybody is bad faith at best, a lie at worst. Please don't use such tactics here, and certainly not with me.
