Just listening to new in Australia.?

A motorcyclist stopped to help another motorcyclist who appeared to be in trouble. The " good Samaritan" (1st biker) was pushed into a ditch by the 2nd biker and then three of the 2nd biker's mates turned up and doused the "good Samaritan" with acid.

What are everyone's thoughts about people who throw acid on others being punished in a like manner?

Update:

I just found the link.

I know genuine bikers would not do this to another biker. I was married to a biker for over 20 years. I was just so disgusted.

    Anne, I can't imagine a biker doing that to another completely random "fellow biker". I tried to find the article but came up with one from Victoria that involved a bike and a sedan.

    Personally, I think it pitiful, horrifc and just plain disgusting. I hope the rider is OK.

    well Vicki R is spot on regarding riders not acting that way

    I suspect there is more to the story

    sadly it is the good samaritan that is the one that gets hurt killed sued damaged etc

    look at what happened in melbourne last year

    that irish tourist a random good samaritan tried to help in the shooting on the street and got killed for his kindness

    A completely cowardly act. I'm not sure about "an eye for an eye" but they do deserve to suffer hell on earth.

    I think it's time you spoke to your doctor about having your medications reviewed or increased.
