Cyclists are murderous?

He replied to me

Dear James,

I have been taken slightly out of context here. The cyclist I was talking about was actually my friend who bumped into me - it was a joke at his expense. I actually cycle and do not drive.

Sorry for causing offence but I simply do not dislike cyclists.

Dan

How can he be taken out of context from his own Twitter post?

What about his other Twitter posts:
'Did you nearly run me over on a bike 2 days ago or was it someone else'
'I don't hate cyclists in general, just the one who nearly ran me over'
