Very unlike the "good fellas". these d/b's terrorized the female and toddler in the Range Rover as well. Unheard of in the "gumba" community. RE: Recent NYC attack.
Just saw this. Started riding back in the 60's. Worked in the largest Yamaha dealer in the state while in college. Was rear ended while driving a bike several years ago by a car load of idiots, and got hit at 40 mph. Have known several bike club members, some very high in their organization. Have had cars pull out in front of me, doors opened on me, etc. Currently I own two bikes. Never wanted to shoot anyone, don't carry a gun and think most bike clubs are populated by testosterone filled wannabees. Sorta like people who carry guns for no reason.
Started riding in the 70's...gave up bikes in the 90's after a harrowing year in Pheonix the bike my only transpo.. I've been pushed into oncoming traffic, forced to take curb, doors opened etc.. Yeah I was pissed but I never wanted to shoot anyone. I don't carry a gun and I'm suspicious of people that do, except those for whom it's part of their job, and I'm not sure about some of those either...
There was a time in the South when the outlaw biker clubs were all that could relied on to stand between the peaceful hippie and the redneck/shit kicker thrill seekers out to hunt down and beat or rape a hippie. Asking a cop for help/protection was enough to get the average hippie arrested as a filthy commie ni---r lover.
apologies if i gave you the impression i'm defending anything, except maybe suggesting that sensationalized media reporting might not be the best way to judge an issue like this. earlier in this thread there were some posts illustrating examples of reporters way over blowing a "story". starting with Hollister. read some less biased sources (I.E. less commercially invested) or keep the perspective you have. doesn't matter much at the end of the day. wow. that makes sense. so, you ride motorcycles and you're not violent. me too. what a paradigm shift.
i humbly submit that you're the reason to carry a gun. oh, until OBY takes 'em away, right? :willy_nilly: piss off
Personally I don't claim to be non-violent only non aggressive. I practice martial arts inorder to react more gently when confronted in a violent manner.
You live in you're world, I live in the real world where this type of shit happens, And the NY one recent, Looks to be the new 'trend' now. I don't support that shit, Doing it for no reason. But that's why more and more and buying GoPro Hero helmet cams so they themselves have proof and reason. Only if they were carrying a weapon would I fire away. Plus the fact, If I was riding and 'had' to use it, It would be to blow out their tire or engine compartment. Id rather have them alive so I can sue the shit out of them and own them for many years. I carry because its my right to. No other reason needed and I never leave home with out it.
of course it does when you just soak up the latest media drivel like a sponge. there is nothing new or original about anti-social behavior. http://www.wikihow.com/Detect-a-Sociopath

I like how they cut and paste that together so it makes the bikers look bad. When the dumb fuck hit the biker, Slowing to 5mph or not, He hit him and it was the RR's fault and he got what he deserved. The bikers stopped when the guy was hit, But the RR stormed off. When he got blocked in, He got what he deserved. Glad his family got to see what happens when you fuck with bikers and almost kill one. As mentioned, There were a lot of GoPro helmet cams there and they are not showing from start to stop. Even if he has to spend a few days in jail, That family will never fuck with or forget what bikers can and will do if you are a fucktard.

Yep, Same helmet cam they have been pimping. They still have not shown the other(s) helmet cam footage. Just the same old person and footage. Either way, He will spend maybe a few days and pay a few dollars. The family will have something to remember the rest of their life. They might win the little battle, But have already lost the war. Plus, He hit the biker, Then left the scene of the accident. They had all the right to pursue.
A clear case of hit and run and the driver of the SUV deserved as a felon fleeing the scene of his crime to be detained by what ever means necessary. He serves a bit of hard time in my opinion.
Me too, it must have taken some serious special effects to make it look like those considerate, mentally sound and highly educated citizens actually bashed open a vehicle window in front of a terrified women and an innocent baby in a blood lust herd stampede and then assaulted the driver.
