I don't understand the sympathy some are showing toward the bike riders. If some scumbag was paralyzed during a bank robbery or convenience store holdup nobody would give two snits. Put the scumbag on a motorcycle and some people will just reflexively leap to his defense.
Honestly? I think they see that it was a "wealthy" Asian family in a Range Rover and get jealous. The liberal NY Daily News made it a point to print that the victim was wealthy. Class warfare at it's finest.

so you would have sat there and let them beat the crap out of you while you are waiting for the law to show up.??? not to smart.. the guy did stop and they preceded to bash his vehicle and slash his tires!!! once the knives came into the picture is when my foot would be mashing gas...
Nice. The long version... A 3 paragraph rant by you just to say what I managed to say in two sentences:
... that you have no idea what happened and you don't know what you're talking about.
Praise the lord that you can get you some of that free gumbment healthcare from Big Daddy O because you sure do need some work on your eyes and some new glasses if you can't watch that video and see what took place.

Apparently you need your eyes checked, because you can't see videos or read news accounts properly. At worst the guy in the SUV bumped one of the bikes accidentally...then when he pulled over they attacked him..at that point the guys on bikes pursued him and assaulted him.
..but keep on defending ghetto thugs if it makes you feel better. I'm sure they have some sob story as to why they can't go through an afternoon without breaking dozens of laws and assaulting people.
Yeah because taking the law into your own hands is far more important than protecting your family and ensuring their safety.
They started calling 911 from the start....as usual, the police were late to the party.
