I've been a bicyclist all my life, and I am often harassed on the roads.

Everything mentioned in this story has happened to me at one time or
another.

But what these DJs have done is not just incitement to riot, but a death
threat -- aimed at every bicyclist im America.

The name for it is terrorism. These idiots are seeking to terrorize
bicyclists, and encouraging listeners to murder us.

License revocation? How about 10 years hard time?
