SUV drivers pulls his first he maybe gets 1 or 2 bikers (which would be in self defense) but there were 100s of bikers one of them would have murdered the SUV driver after that. If one of the bikers had a gun and used it first it would have just been straight murder.

I don't know.
Moot point since he didn't have a weapon but I would've taken a shot in his position. Around the 5 minute mark of the video when the guy tries to rip his door open, that guy. At that point, maybe you're right and they keep after him, but maybe they think twice and take their buddy to the hospital instead. Or someone calls an ambulance and the police get a sense of urgency about responding to the whole thing. It's better than what appears to be certain at the point they start trying to get into his car, which is that he's getting his brains beat in. I agree with you, it's nuts that they only cut him a couple of times; at that point you're pretty much committed and I fully expect critical injuries if not DOA.
I realize there are... well, no there weren't hundreds, but there were a couple dozen bikers and he couldn't shoot all of them. But the notion that he's going to shoot some of you, and you might be one of the ones that gets shot, and it's easily avoidable by running away, is probably pretty good motivation to not be nearby anymore.

Come on. Yes you do. As a rational adult I'm prepared to sit patiently and give people a chance to provide a reasoned explanation as to why those bikers should be defended, but there is
no excuse for bad grammar.
