in a state where there was less gun control, the RR driver may have pulled out a gun and shot a few bikers, but the result would have been 300 well armed bikers pulling out guns and filling the RR full of bullets, undoubtedly killing everyone inside, including a small child and most likely innocent bystanders as well who would also (having been well armed themselves, if it had been Texas) have joined in shooting at bikers, etc. etc.

but yes, that would have been a much more 'even' outcome so that's fine. :rolleyes:

The point is that we don't hear about mass shootouts in Texas on a daily basis, the theory being that people dont start shooting for precisely that reason

Some of these clips appear on bear1's video above, but there's enough unseen ones to make it worthy of posting, not to mention the arsehole at 3.38

I'm sure we all agree that having a dashcam in a car is handy, but that looks like a bit of overkill.

that's to watch for cyclists in the blind spot (it's written in the description)

that's the worrying thing. a significant portion of gun toting american's would have considered it their duty to shoot their way out of the situation to protect their rights and their family.

all that would have happened is a lot of people would have been dead.

as it is, one man is badly beaten and another is most likely going to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair, i think that's plenty bad enough. who knows how bad it could have gotten with a large number of well armed angry bikers.

Spot on

On one of the American forums I frequent, the over-riding message is that if this had happened in another state with less strict gun control (i.e. Texas) the outcome for the SUV driver could have been very different and would have evened up the odds quite a bit.

That forum sounds dumb.

The odds between 2 tonne RR vs bike, or odds between guy and family vs mob of bikers (genuine question, different sites have different perspectives)?

seen that yesterday, i wonder what sparked the hole thing off.
what caused the bikers to surround the RR on the main road before he ploughed over them?

There is a good bit on the YouTube thread on this. But I did find another site last night, and while the guy had pulled down all the other videos he filmed relating to this event, someone had copied them and reposted. And the whole gig was just arrogant mob mentality. Blocking roads, riding on pavements, cruising through lights regardless, cutting up and weaving around traffic, several bits of mobbing drivers who didn't yield quickly enough. The start of the RR incident wasn't there, so maybe the RR did something to them, but you'd certainly get the feeling from the other vids that it wasn't taking much.
