In this case against the facts, he's an innocent victim in the whole thing he would never do this.
Some kid gets tossed in jail for using a knife to stab someone else to death in a fight. He's being picked on he's a good person, the justice system is wrong.
I don't know. I'm pretty sure if I had been that biker and got caught in a mob where a guy got nearly beat to death and I got run over. My old man might be tempted to say, I feel bad for my kid, but he was being an a%% and he put himself into this situation.

But the difference here is there is at least someone else to blame, the people actually responsible, and the family is caught up on the SUV driver when they should be blaming the thugs. I suppose it's the guilty by association that's preventing them from seeing what clearly happened but that whole "My son/brother/husband is paralyzed because this man didn't let himself and his family get beaten by my son/brother/husband's friends" has to be up there for worst victim blaming in awhile.
