Over 40 years ago I flew Colors for about 5 years.........the term "Biker Gang" has really changed since then. I guess they were all in the same Twitter Group.

Only the wimps of the world could describe those guys as a biker gang...but what do you expect from the snowflakes-in-chief?   

I wonder what happened before the dirt gang went after the guy--I remember other incidents where the car/SUV had tried to run over the bikes, but that wasn't shown on many of the news videos that were posted.

That was some real craziness 2k. Makes me wonder what I'd do in a case like that if alone - sure can't fight them all and it's unlikely anyone would have enough rounds for the entire group...

[RonandJanet]

It does make you think about what you would do.  Easy to let your temper (especially me) take over for common sense. If people had stopped and helped him that would have been great as well. You probably only need a few rounds since most of these guys are pu.....es that is why they have to "gang up".

I would have fired a warning shot into the guys leg that first hit my car. I think that would have ended it.

Here in Carebear Canada, the video won't play, the link is dead with the caption, We're sorry, this video cannot be played from your area. lol
You guys in the US can carry guns? The article hints that it's a common occurrence in that area, is that true? One of our road trips was to bike down through SF while on our coastal trip stateside.
In any case, hope the guy is alright. We went thru a stage a few years back with massive groups of teens would gang up on 1 person in a mall. was ridiculous,

Sadly that likely would have landed you in jail facing charges. Here in california they want people to retreat, not defend themselves. Sad truth

As far as I know defending yourself with a weapon is bad ju-ju unless you're in your residence, but it depends on the state. In a case like that you may be morally but not legally correct and most likely would face charges. Speaking for myself, I'd have to be convinced that if I didn't defend myself, friends or family I'd be dead, because the implications are are poor indeed.

Man,  if indeed you were "packing" and this scenario developed, you would seem to have pretty much only two choices.  One would be to get beat up.........in the long run........by multiple crotch rocket riders.........or put a bullet in the first one that was attacking you.

Seems to me like getting down to the ..............."rather be judged by 12,  than carried by 6".   

[kiro]

I agree moscooter - in a case like that I wouldn't fight, I'd shoot!

The carry laws are different in each state; some states, like California, make it very hard to get a permit to carry (concealed).  Other states are required to issue a concealed carry permit if you meet the requirements.

Same for me, if that didn't stop things the next shots would be center mass on a couple of them.

[muddypaws]

That's why I carry...

[Road Dad]

Never shoot a warning shot, that is a really bad idea for so many reasons.
