It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

If you’re riding on highway that explicitly forbids cyclists and slow moving vehicles, do you think they’re going to be looking out for you when entering and exiting the highway…?
I never said I rode illegally. Here in colombia it's perfectly legal to walk or ride your bike on the highways. Also the shoulders exist on the exits and entrances so why would they need to look for me? I'm not in their lane.
You are arguing for it, in a post about a place where it’s explicitly illegal to do it on this road. So what’s your point here then?
We are explaining why it’s insane in this particular case.
This was the statement that I was replying to. Which I made clear in my initial response. Learn to read better.
An espressway in the US is illegal to ride a bike on…
Just because it’s legal where you are, doesn’t mean the circumstances everywhere are the same…. They even explained that to you to re-establish context.
Don’t insult someone’s intelligence when you yourself missed the mark to begin with. You missed the context, which is extremely important when conversing. So please look in the mirror before insulting someone next time. Since it’s clear you are the one who didn’t read properly in this case….
