It's really sad there wasn't enough decent bikers in that group to be able to restrain their fellow members from doing harm to that family. In the large group rides I've been on over the years, it seems there are reasonable people with a level head to help diffuse a tense situation. Perhaps if there was enough of those people in that group which made themselves visible when traffic got stopped the first time, the outcome would've been much different.
It's also really sad to see the Buell group attack each other because we have different opinions on how we might have handled ourselves in that situation. Being different is the primary reason I purchased a Buell. Sharing ideas is the reason I post on a forum. Respect for one another is the reason I chose this forum over any other. I really hope the way its been going on this thread isn't an indication of how some future responses will be.

Well, I'm not going to poke at this hornet's nest, but I am surprised by how quickly public opinion seems to have turned this incident into an issue of race, class, gender and gun rights; everything EXCEPT the simple breach of traffic laws by all parties.
It's also interesting to note the different spin that different media is putting on this. Some headlines read something like "Pack of crazed bikers terrorize and beat family", while others are more like "SUV driver mows over motorcyclists".

So you're saying there's no circumstance that it's acceptable to plow over the bikers? What if they are firing assault rifles at you? You'd probably still get out and lock the door, tell your family to wait patiently, and try to reason with the bikers. Or so you say.
And all of us that are arguing this point would likely never be in this situation because we don't ride like ******** and surround cars taking up entire highways, brake check suv's, do stunts down the road, etc. And I bet we (I can only speak for myself) would all flee on our bikes if a vehicle was attempting to run us over. Not CHASE the vehicle.

The whole thing on the bikers half got way out of hand. The guy in the suv was SCARED for his self and family. The bottom line is NO ONE IS A WINNER HERE !

The sad thing is...I could have sworn I saw a BUELL amongst all chaos...SAD DAY [sad]
I was home today, looking at my beloved XB12s, thinking about how I've enjoyed the many trips I've taken and admiring all the work I've done on the bike. And I particularly spent time reminiscing how most of my trips over the past two decades have been with only a few really good friends with whom I've ridden tens of thousands of miles. And as a gentle smile formed on my face, and tears collected under my eyes, I remembered all the stupid crap GregoXB has been spewing. So I got into my Prius, revved the engine (it's a hybrid, so it doesn't really rev), put it into Drive and then ran right into my XB12s. I then put it in Reverse and proceeded to run over the XB12s again. And again and again. Then I set the whole wreck on fire.

I'd suggest it's important to avoid the temptation of painting all "the bikers" with the same brush.
I prefer to ride alone (on pavement at least) but I have participated in large group rides before where I couldn't even tell you the name of the rider next to me let alone be accountable for his/her actions.
The rider who got run over & paralyzed was in the midst of performing his legal duty to remain at the scene & render assistance to the rider who was hit when he brake-checked the SUV. Let's leave the stereo-typing of riders to the cagers.
Ali that was funny!
As to this issue...the whole thing is bad. The bikers initially caused this and the driver panicked. What happened after is open for debate. I believe those bikers have made all of us look bad and I don't condone any of their actions.
Here is my dilemma:
If I watched one of my own get run over I honestly think I would have reacted in a similar very violent fashion. I again don't condone this....but it's easy for everyone to second guess and judge without adrenaline pumping. Right wrong or in different one of those bikers is in a coma right now.

Again - the bikers (and yes I paint the entire group with the INTENT TO DO HARM brush) wanted to do harm. The SUV driver merely wanted to flee. The driver didn't attack anyone. Someone was hurt, yes. But that was due to the ENTIRE GROUP OF RIDERS - yes every last one of them - being involved in illegal activities. Is there something you aren't comprehending about this?
