I've got some news for you, he has to be convicted by a jury of his peers and they can charge him all day long but he won't be convicted and shouldn't be IMHO. He has a right to be on the road with his family and not be assaulted by these scumbag coward assholes. OMG!, how dare you drive your SUV on OUR road!, I only wish he wiped out a couple dozen more of the scum..
Jealous? WTF would I be jealous? I'm happy that someone that ugly was able to find a partner. But am I the only one who witnessed the entire progression of his marriage on Anandtech and found it annoying? From the finding the engagement ring to the proposal to finding a place to hold the wedding to the marriage to where they should go for the honeymoon. GOD DAMN. It's as if he has no friends.
I hear you, but it changes nothing. The law is the law and Lien is not 100% innocent in this. And this is New York City we're talking about. I live here. You will ALWAYS find someone that has a different opinion. If his lawyers are over-confident and let the wrong ones into that jury booth, GAME OVER. It has happened before and will happen again.
@Dari
Even for off topic this is going overboard. That's a clearly racist comment.
And you know this how? Come to NYC during the Puerto Rican Day parade in June, Dominican Day parade in August and West Indies Day Parade and you will see what I'm talking about. Try going to Harlem or Brooklyn on those days and you will encounter these bikers. It's a fact of life.
Only time will tell. I have a feeling he'll be on his merry little way in life when all is said and done. Assume prosecution against the RR driver makes it to trial. If I was picked for the jury, the prosecution would have to find some pretty convincing evidence to trump the video that the bikers recorded.
Dari, you take a testosterone supplement or something? you ragin' last night
Nah, my balls hang low...
I don't see where the RR driver had much of a choice in the matter. Avoid a fight? looks like that's what he tried to do. The fight came to him, he fled.
like, you can play hackey sack with them low? or, they just peek out of your shorts low.
He was riding too close. That was his first mistake. His second was not communicating...
Swarmed by thirty bikers (who can stop much faster than you). Cut off and brake checked on a 3-lane roadway. No injuries at first...So what you're saying is that the bikers were banging on his car and trying to open his door because they wanted to make sure the driver of the RR was ok after the fender bender that just occurred, and none of the bikers has yet sustained any injuries, so the welfare of their fellow man was of the highest priority.
That is your interpretation of what you saw. Your own analysis. As for the brake-checking, in NYC people are always in a hurry so they tailgate others extremely closely. I happens often and the RR had no business being that close. I'm not saying that the bikers had the right to do their acts on the public highway but the RR driver did himself no favors by riding so closely.
So you completely missed the part where the biker passed the RR in the SAME lane as the RR, and then quickly pulled in front of him? Are you blind? Or just more dishonesty?
The RR wasn't tailgating anybody, they were all traveling at a much faster speed than he was, and passing him on both sides. Until the idiot brake checked him.

You are absolutely incorrect. It is unlawful confinement. Go look it up. If a bunch of strangers force you against your will into a particular area, or against your will from leaving it, you can defend yourself.Well, that's just your opinion and it means nothing legally...
The duration of the confinement does not need to be lengthy. A "significant" period of time where the victim is "coercively restrained or directed contrary to her wishes, so that she could not move about according to her own inclination and desire" will be sufficient.[7]
True, but it's not so much debating him as just schooling him. I don't think any of us expect him to change his wildly incorrect opinion, so it's kind of a beat down that he's asking for. Somewhat like being run over when you assault a guy and his family.You guys are wasting your time arguing with the 'dickhole'. Revisit this thread after the trials and let it take care of itself, as I suspect it will.

How is it when you guys like to talk past each other (at least when it comes to politics). Here is how it goes in Asia:
Asian A: Apologize
Asian B: No, you apologize
Asian A: No, you apologize first
That's how it is. No one wants to listen to the other because of the obsession with saving face. So they close their mind and cannot tolerate differing opinion. I couldn't care less if someone puts me on an ignore list. All it does is hurt them because it makes them wonder what I'm saying. They then wait for someone to quote me so they can read what I'm saying. Pathetic. Zeze obviously had nothing constructive to say but he just had to follow me here. Sad, I know...
