Any thief would certainly be interested in something as bulky as that case! Tennis racquets lay flat. There is obviously something else worth looking at in that case. And if the thief just touched or moved the case, he would know its not racquets.I know one thing, if I didn't get to my trunk gun first, I know I would have made them bounce off my rear end in the bottle neck, ran over hell o lot more of them with my SUV. I would have also locked my doors. The Ten Dollar Covert Rifle Carry Option - YouTube I like the hidden in plain sight in your car, a thief isn't going to think to steal your tennis racket if car is broken in too, but I don't agree with carrying around, for the hell of it.
Yes, it can be!The Mob mentality is a dangerous thing.....
So no one here thinks that MAYBE the suv was too close to the bikes to start with?
I thought you were supposed to ALWAYS be in control of YOUR vehicle.
my point being, if he was in control and didn't bump the first bike, there never would have been any problem.
It's hard to tell on my iPad, but didn't look to me like the guy hit his brakes that hard.(but maybe he did)Except that video showed the first bike that was struck actually cut off the SUV and then brake-checked him. The SUV driver did get out to address that incident but retreated to his SUV as he began being outnumbered and intimidated by the other bikers.
would he be justified if he would few of those riders down with a firearm since his family was in a lot of danger?

And come on, "wild pack" of motorcyclists? Only one or two got anywhere near "wild" or out of control.
What would YOU do if a friend was just run over and almost (or) killed by an SUV?

Either way, that's when you dial 911. I doubt anyone would have been breaking windows or busting heads at that point. His big mistake was running over several bikes and riders after the initial incident.
this doesn't look like a gang of outlaw bikers to me.
i ask again, what would YOU do if your friend was run over (intentionally) by an SUV and almost (or) killed?
I watched the beginning of the video again. Looks to me that the guy in the vest had a problem with the SUV driver (maybe he cut him off or something??)From what I could tell while watching the first video, as soon as the biker pulled a whopping 6 feet in front of him, he was already on his brakes. The bike was braking as well, but the guy in the SUV did brake. While the driver of the SUV is supposed to be in control of his vehicle, isn't the biker supposed to be more cautious and in control of his? It works both ways and if I'm on a motorcycle, I'm not cutting off someone in an SUV and then braking right away. The bike has more mobility and is faster than the SUV. There was no reason for him to pull in front of him and brake.
The only reason they were ran over by him was because several of the bikers were slashing his tires and hitting his vehicle trying to gain entry right after he bumped the rear wheel of the bike, which in fault was caused by the guy on the bike being an incompetent rider and cutting him off then braking. I can almost understand where the bikers are coming from by being upset, but they should have acted like adults and waited for the police to come instead of using violence to try and resolve the issue. Lets turn this around, instead of what we would do if our friend was run over, what would YOU do if you were the driver of the SUV who is surrounded by 50+ grown adults slashing your tires and trying to break into your vehicle while your family is in there?
This was a simple accident with not a single person harmed and could have stayed that way if the bikers wouldn't have acted the way they did. The driver of the SUV didn't hurt the guy on the bike that he rear-ended (who cut him off and braked 6 feet in front of him btw). It escalated as soon as the other bikers resorted to violence.
