This is what you get for supporting woke policies like defunding the police and decriminalization. You will get beaten and chased by the angry mob that you've supported with the defunding of the police policies.
And how do you know what Ian Ziering's political views are, and why do you assume that's why he was attacked?

Are you not aware that these vicious bikers are all over Southern California terrorizing suburbs with muffler noise enhancers? (I have no idea what they are called and I don't care - they should be outlawed.) You have no idea why he was surrounded and attacked.

I was at a gas station in Claremont, California a couple years ago. A gang of bikers stormed into the gas station I was at (Route 66 - Foothill Blvd.) They circled and circled all the gas pumps with deafening frightening noise and then tore off west on Route 66 through Claremont and onward.

I also experienced this in the form of about 6-7 Dodge Challengers on the 210 freeway going over 100 mph weaving in and out of traffic, almost causing multiple collisions. THIS stuff is also why people are leaving California. It's not just politics.

This motorcycle gang crap is happening ALL OVER. It has NOTHING to do with Ian Ziering's "politics."

If there was deliberate targeting of the SUV, likely it was because it was front of a busy almost-landmark, to flex.

He's not the 1st one to do this in the past, many folks have came out to challenge illegal bikers that are impacting traffic because the local police did not intervene and have deadly consequences. He's lucky that those guys attacked him so they can't sue him easily. This won't happen in NYC, as the NYPD here are pretty quick at responding to these kinds of traffic problem such as so many of the pro Hamas supporters blocking traffic.

He didn't challenge them. If you will read the article, they caused damage to his car. He stepped out to assess the damage. That's when they attacked him. They probably did it because he was driving a $100K Mercedes. It's not OK to attack some simply because they're driving a highly expensive car. They likely did it out of jealousy and spite toward a random stranger. These are NOT nice people we're discussing.

Oh sure, that's the only reason.

And if you will look at the photo, the vehicle is not "massive".

Ummm massive? Exaggerate much? It was a GLE which is Mercedes mid-size SUV.

Just for perspective:

2024 GLE to a 2024 Honda minivan:

GLE 10 inches shorter
GLE .8 of an inch taller
GLE 2 inches narrower.

So in reality a minivan is actually slightly more "MASSIVE"

Off topic but those are NOT "Pro Hamas" supporters. Those are pro civilian Palestinian supporters. Its not the same thing. Educate yourself please.

He said to "assess any damage." It sounds like he wasn't sure if they'd caused damage at that point. Later they broke his windshield. I think there were elements of performative menace and flouting traffic rules that led to the fight and major damage.
