Mad Max in NYC. Biker punks swarm Man and child in SUV

That would certainly explain lack of prosecution as well, hrm...

Might also explain the hubris in posting the video in the first place.

When have you seen cops so whiny about being powerless to do anything? Waaaah, they have fake (or no) license plates. Waaaah, we're being pressured to prosecute. Waaaah, “The case is weak. It was too early to tell if he committed the crimes he was charged with. It needed much more investigation,”

It's on fucking video. There are witnesses.

Well if you recall the case of that philly cop that punched that Puerto rican woman at the parade lsat year. the judge ruled that you couldn't trust video evidence. and the cop walked.

You can bet your ass if "real bikers" were even accused of this type of behavior, club houses would have been SWATTED, dogs killed and children molested all while the DA's and police commissioner did nonstop TV interviews...

That's for sure, with all kinds of old news footage from the old Iron Cross and Hells Angels wars and shit. "Watch you babies, they'll snatch 'em right out of your arms as they drive by"

DA won’t charge bike assault thug in SUV beating

It appears that the only routes to Justice for the victim are personal vendetta, family vendetta, or asking some local Don for Justice.

It also appeared that the guy did not post the entire video, especially the beating part. Seems like a classic case for a search warrant for the rest of the video.

"accidentally hit one of the bikes" bullshyt! Look at the video, the biker cut right in front of the guy and hit his brakes. That was intentional from the start!

It's called a "brake check." Bikers typically do this to enforce a slow down so they can accumulate stretches of open road.

I suppose I need to clarify that I don't consider kids on rice burners "bikers" :o

The folks I know who ride are more than happy to put kids who behave poorly in their place...

I spoke to an old friend yesterday who's from NYC and these punks are on the legitimate bikers "list" for their behavior...

The one the cops caught should consider himself lucky...

No true Scotsman would ever behave like these people.

Take a wild guess who PuffHo is horrified for.

Horrifying details about road rage incident emerge

I bet this is the end of that shit.

Try to think of it as a funeral procession or a military convoy....Bikers are nothing more than a group of motorists traveling together, what differentiates us from cage drivers is that we'll often share a lane with each other in effect making an unbroken stream of vehicles with overlapping axles..Without the protection of bumpers/fenders and airbags..

Most bikers who travel through urban areas in a pack do so out of self defence and if you look at breaking up the pack as an affront to the pack you'll understand individuals who get upset...

Why should loud, annoying packs of bikes be given the same respect as a freaking funeral procession?? You share the damn road, you don't get to take up a quarter mile unbroken just because you're with your friends.

The level of arrogance and entitlement in your posts in this thread is jaw dropping.

Cut into a pack of actual bikers and you'll either maim or kill a few, see where your self righteous ass is at that point.

I offer the same respect to groups of trucks, military convoys and school processions, in fact any group obviously traveling together.

It is you sir who believes you're entitled and professes arrogance with the belief that you're entitled to break into a procession of people you find beneath your stature.

So please, next time you see a group of "noisy and annoying" gray-beards (my friends) riding peacefully along the highway, jump right on into the pack and flatten a few, maybe one of our wives too........

I can assure you that you'll wish the police could help you.

Why in the world would you want to be so disrespectful?

A group of riders is to be looked at like a semi truck, one continuous unit.

Would you want to merge between the UPS truck and its trailer?

If you cut me off in order to merge we'll come to blows. Fuck people in cars who think a turn signal gives them the right to cut off another driver, biker or not.

Manners on the road aren't reserved for vehicles bigger than you.

Drive civilly or be taught manners.

[edit]

Another analogy would be a funeral procession, any decent person isn't going to try and cut into a funeral procession, for any reason.

A group of motorcycles is NOTHING like a semi truck. Nor is it like a funeral procession. Apparently, if you were in that group of bikers we saw in the video, you would have went right along with all the senseless violence initiated by the bikers because it's "disrespectful" to merge into your lane. If you think we have the god complex on the road, you should look in a mirror.

Shove it up your ass Paul!

I don't ride with kids and I don't act like that.

I expect the same respect I show.

[edit]

Nice edit punk, what with the God complex..

It's morons like you who fail to respect others on the road who cause problems.

The kids in the OP were NOT bikers, they were idiots of your caliber.

 

[PaulConventionWV]

Exactly.

[edit]

Yes, groups of people traveling together, be they bikes or a funeral procession are the only reason to stop on an entrance ramp.

Common decency dictates drivers not "in a pack" will permit merging, whereas drivers who are obviously "in a pack" have the right of way...

So we should assume all bikers who are near each other on the highway are "in a pack"? How do you tell if a group of cars is also in a pack? It's not as easy, is it? We're just supposed to recognize when a bunch of biker buddies are "together" and treat them with special privileges? Cars don't get to save spaces. If someone leaves space in between them and whatever car they are trying to follow, they risk losing a spot.

WTH is your problem @PaulCWV?

You attack tod for what reason? Did you read this thread or just come looking for trouble?

It's NOT a funeral procession, and it most certainly is not a damn military convoy. People try to squeeze in between other 4 wheel vehicles all the time and the most retribution they usually get for that is a middle finger or the driver muttering "asshole" under their breath. You seem to be okay with the roided up jackasses that swarm and harass other vehicles for minor mishaps and breaking some unwritten biker rule.

The bikers in the OP are obviously jackasses who went looking for trouble. They caused the guy to rear-end one of the bikes, and all of a sudden, that's cause for revenge, so they chase him down and beat him senseless and slash his tires, not to mention terrorizing his wife and kid.

So, forgive me if I'm not all that receptive of someone coming here talking about respecting the honor of a biker pack. When I see a story about this kind of senseless violence, I really don't want to hear about how bikers deserve special pack privileges because it just strongly implies that there is some kind of justification for what the punks in the video did.
