It enables my daily commute. I’m taking a car off the road (and I get the parking comp added back into my paycheck). Purists will try to imagine e-bikes are somehow bad for the world.

I’m not just afraid of being hit by a car on an e-bike, but the street people see money in an e-bike and our streets are full of these people.

In this case, the option would be to invest in strong chains for the bicycle and avoid leaving it in public places for a long time.

E-bikes are popular in most Western European countries, and that doesn't happen often there. To be honest, I've never heard of a case like this.

No bicycle belongs on the road. If it's not a motorized vehicle get it out of the way of cars.

You have no idea what you’re talking about. Roads are paid for by the general tax fund, which every tax payer contributes to. Gasoline and auto specific taxes only make up a small percentage of the road budget. Roads belong to everyone, not just M0R0NS like you that think they own the road.
