First, I want to say the bikers are no angels. They were taunted and harassed a man and then the vicious beating in the end was extreme.
That said, the 'victim' in this story isn't the angel he is being made out to be. He messed with the bull and got the horn! His actions created the situations and end.
In the youtube clip you have the news story. They protray an innocent man hunted down and attacked by bikers for no reason. The constantly show the ending of where they pull the man out of the SUV.
However, if you watch the unedited clip, you see a different picture. The man in the SUV is surrounded by the bikers, but they aren't threatening him. As he moves closer to one of the bikers, the biker slows down (a harassing way to say get off my ass), the man then PURPOSEFULLY hits the biker, knocking the biker off his bike and seriously hurting him. Yep he could have been scared to get out of his car at that point, but he hit and hurt someone. (NOTE: The intentional hit was left off the news story).
So what is his next move? NOTE AGAIN: This SHOCKING move was left off the video. He speeds away driving right over 3 or 4 bikers on their bikes, seriously injuring all of them.
He speeds away and they take chase, eventually catching the guy and beating him.
Was the beating justified? Probably not. Was it understandable, I think so. I mean imagine if you watched a guy run over a few of your buddies and speed off, then you catch the guy. Are you going to be rationale at that point.
The media completely manipulates the story. They make it as an innocent man harassed by blood thirsty, violent gangsters in an unprovoked attack. They just wish the bikers were (white - when it appeared to be a mixed race group) and the victims were black!
