I am not judging anybody here (except you), I am just playing devils advocate, because this is not a black and white situation.

So let me get this straight...you are saying in front of God and everybody...that since the RR driver intiated the conflict, the actions of the bikers from there after is acceptable...possibly even what you would do in the same situation?

I think when they drag you from your vehicle and you shoot one, it is justifiable. That's most likely what I would do. Name calling doesn't help the forum image either.

What's your screen name on Hollywood Stuntz ruthabaga?

How would you have handled the situation differently?

At least one of the douche bags won't be terrorizing the streets again any time soon.

He has to have one..lol

Too many drive their cars like drones or assholes.
Here's what I have an issue with:
Have you ever put the blinker on to change lane and as soon as you put it on the cars behind you hits the gas trying to keep you from getting in front of them?
God forbid you should end up "stealing" their place in traffic, never mind if they can cause an accident!
I just can't get it: even in Italy, where people drive admittedly wildly, if you put the blinker (rare event, granted) I will make room so you can merge.
But not here.
Now put yourself on two wheels rather than four.
In NY.
My judgment here tells me it was an attempted hit and run.
It happened to me in Rome.
My biker friends stopped the asshole that was trying to drive away while I was lying down in an intersection, trying to figure out wether I could still move my legs.
The driver could have got away with a couple of well deserved slaps, but he let it escalate.
Yeah, I have been on two wheels for the last 30 years, I identify with bikers.

you are missing the point: what would you do, if you saw a group of biker pass you at high speed on the highway? even if one of them slow down in front of you (was he controlling traffic for the group)? hit them? pull you gun and start shooting? honk? piss them off? or just slow down or stop, lock your door, call the cops, un-holster your carry (that's NY, no luck here...) ... So basically CONTROL THE SITUATION AND PROTECT YOUR FAMILY!
