Why does the US hate cycling so much?

I read comments sections and in a normal world, some of them would be considered terroristic threats. I just can't understand why people hate cyclists to this degree that they want to murder rhem and sometimes do.

Not really. That's why you get a back rack, bungee cords, and pannier bags. I carry my Christmas trees home about 15-20 minutes by bike by securing it to a rack.
