If you aim a car at two kids on bikes and drive toward them it’s attempted murder. All it would have taken was for one of the frightened children to fall off their bike before they made it off the road. It’s unbelievable that they are so proud of attacking children.
Yep. And If caught doing so, at least in my State (using an automobile as a deadly weapon), I'd have been well within my rights to take action against them (Defense of a third party unable to free themselves from a lethal threat is permitted here.)
This isn't Felony "reckless endangerment", it's intentional, and thus assault with a deadly weapon.
