The dude was drunk when he hit those 2 other people. He's done once the courts get ahold of him.

Strip club brawl ends in leg amputations for two men | Hot Topics | an SFGate.com blog

After reading some of the comments at the bottom of the news article I disagree with those who are automatically saying the guy who smashed these other 2 guys' was a maniac. How do we know that the 2 men who had thier legs amputated weren't asking for it by thier own actions? For all we know those 2 men could have been gang members threatening to kill this guy, so he tried to leave the club and avoid confrontation, but they blocked him from leaving, so he rammed them with his car. How can you really judge unless you have ever been the target of a gang death threat or any kind of threat to your physical well being? How can you really make judgements that the guy is a maniac without knowing exactly what happened throughout the night?

I say this because I have been to some bars/clubs in my day, and there's always someone or some group who walks around the place looking for trouble and trying to threaten or intimidate someone, so I have learned never to judge the so called victims in situations like this. It's just like back in school when a kid would bully someone, and one day the other kid finally hits back in defense, yet the teacher only saw the second hit and the bully gets off scott free while the kid who was bullied all those times is punished for defending himself.
what..you're actually serious?

meeks was the one who started the race-calling, and the victims were in their mini cooper at the time.
so how were they 'asking for it'?

KNBC-TV identified the suspect as 40-year-old Terrence Conrad Meeks. Meeks was charged with two counts of attempted murder. Police said Meeks allegedly made racially-charged remarks toward the victims during their initial argument.

“This wasn’t an accident,” said police spokesperson Alex Martínez. “Because of how the vehicle used, the intent was there.”

Police said Meek left the club and was driving drunk when he spotted the victims, prompting him to slam into them hard enough to pin the other vehicle, a Mini-Cooper, against one of the club’s walls.

But the plaintiffs don't have a leg to stand on.

Well, save a place in hell for me, because I laughed.
