A man who became known to the Kemah community as the “naked unicyclist” has died after an overnight traffic accident, police said.
Joseph Glynn Farley, 48, was riding his unicycle about 11 p.m. Tuesday in La Porte when he was struck and killed by a Jeep, Sgt. John Kreuger of the La Porte Police Department said.
The departed suffered from mental illness, and had been previously arrested for riding his unicycle nude. Of course the day he died he was clothed, so none of those issues seem to be a factor.
What do we ban, cars? Maybe evil “assault” Jeeps? Unicycles? Maybe more onerous laws that would keep people with mental issues locked up.
Of course none of that really would have mattered, and this is NOT a “Gun Death”.
I used to live in Kemah but I never saw the naked unicyclist. I’m trying hard not to blame the victim here but if you’re going to ride your unicycle at night on a busy street you MIGHT get run over.
