A Black Eye for Bikers
« on: September 30, 2013, 06:09:09 PM »

These hooligans need to be shot. This sort of flash mob behavior needs to be dealt with swiftly and severely.

you can see it starts with the one guy brake checking the range rover.  dude quickly learned bike vs car, car wins.....

this is just plain stupid chit.  the article says that some of the plates couldn't be read, but you can clearly see some of them.  go after the ones that you can read, even if the person wasn't one of the ones that beat the guy, they were complicit in it.

hope the driver comes out of this okay.

I read earlier that driver of the car "forced" his way into the group of motorcycles as they were not moving as fast as he wanted to go, Later he did hit one who brake checked him, but "first" reports were he started it with agressive driving. I am sure more to come.

Although the media has already decided the bikers are guilty & convicted, did anybody notice the driver ran over a bike & then bikes & several bikers?  Does hit & run mean it's ok to hit & run?  If you are out riding with your friends and a car clips a bike or runs over several bkes & your biker buds, you would blow kisses at the driver as he speeds away?

Not excusing the biker with the helmet breaking the window or any of the biker violence at all.  Very likely there is an event that has taken place before this video that would better explain the behaviors of the driver as well as the bikers.  

The driver is doing his best in the worst way to leave the scene of an accdent.with kids in the car - sure you are going to protect them.  The bikers are behaving badly.  The media, which generally hates bikes & bikers gven the chance, has determined guilt.  More to this story than is told in the articles, no doubt.  I choose to reserve judgement.  

Worth noting that if these bikers had been really bad ass & not caring about any consequences, it would be a murder investigation instead.

This is why there is a second amendment.  Oh, wait, this is NYC where the second amendment does not apply and is considered a mistake.  No right to protect yourself.

I don't blame the guy myself.  100's of bikers harassing you and now way out.  I would have started ramming them to get them out of my way.

Seems to me, reading the whole story the SUV driver started the confrontation.  Print articles seem to point to the driver being aggressive and up set bikes were going to slow, forced his way into them.  Then hit one that brake checked him.

TV reports seem to start with the bikes chasing the innocent SUV driver down.

Like usual the media is not telling the whole story but rather making it sell better.

Not excusing the thugs on the bikes.  They were wrong also.  Very wrong.

However I wish the whole story was reported on tv, SUV driver road rage started it then idiot thugs escalated it.
