How to build community

Turn off your TV.... leave your house!

Duh! But of course bike lanes increase cycling

WHICH IS WHY

WE WANT BIKE LANES DOWN CARROLLTON

ALL THE WAY TO CITY PARK

It's a cycle: Bike lanes promote pedaling, Tulane researchers find

"The number of daily bicycle riders on South Carrollton Avenue increased threefold after the addition of mile-long bike lanes, a Tulane University study has found. The results are in the online edition of Annals of Behavioral Medicine, a peer-reviewed journal.

The study was conducted over 10 days in September 2009 and September 2010, before and after the lanes were installed.
In addition to counting bikers on South Carrollton Avenue, researchers from Tulane's School of Public Health and Tropical Medicine kept track of the number of cyclists on Dublin and Short streets, which run parallel to it on each side of the avenue, to give a larger picture of cycling activity.

The Tulane team found an overall daily increase of 110 percent on all three streets, but a 225 percent rise -- from 79 per day in 2009 to 257 in 2010 -- after the bike lanes had been installed, said Kathryn Parker, assistant director of Tulane's Prevention Research Center and the study's leader.
The study showed that bike lanes promote physical activity and that, with the bike lanes, more cyclists were riding in the proper direction -- with traffic.
Since 2008, New Orleans has added more than 37 miles of bike lanes on 16 streets. An earlier study of St. Claude Avenue's bike lanes showed a 57 percent increase in daily ridership."

Ok... why can't folks just do the right thing?

This "billboard" should NOT be parked on the grass and blocking the sidewalk.

Guns don't kill people, Bullets do.

Let's take a step back look at this logically.

Gun's don't kill people, bullets do.
Without bullets a gun is just a fancy stick.

If
I have to provide my drivers license to get over the counter cold & sinus medication for my family to in order protect society from the possibility that this cold & sinus medication could potentially be used to convert Pseudoephedrine into methamphetamine;
Then
Why shouldn't people who buy bullets need to provide their drivers license to protect the society from being killed with bullets?

Forget the NRA. Stop arguing over the 2nd amendment and the right to bear arms. Stop talking about GUN control.

The US sells Pseudoephedrine only in pharmacies and Louisiana requires the purchaser to provide their Drivers License. This is done for a substance that can only cause harm in society if a rather arduous (and stinky) process is used to converted it to crystal meth.
So why not sell ammunition at registered locations (the equivalent of pharmacies) and require a Drivers License to buy the ammunition.  All someone with a bullet has to do is put it in the gun; no processing required.  And we know BULLETS KILL PEOPLE.
