Assuming the problem here is stating ahead of time you will be taking someone out for malicious reasons---This isnt the same as a "race incident" per say..
What if you had "beef" with someone you raced with and every single race they intentionally ran their bike into you--I think that becomes a big issue. Or if they lawn dart their bike into you in the pits..ok or not? Are you calling the cops?
Race incident or intentionally trying to harm someone--different things.
Be interesting where this goes..
Are we taking each other out in a turn, or are we cross jumping over a big jump - repeatedly on-purpose? Does that begin to cross the line? Yeah, setting the precedent that a take-out could land you in jail is not a good deal for the sport, but if you are out there to cause bodily harm, then maybe you should have the sense to sit out a few races and recollect your thoughts.
Where's the dude who was in the Myrtle threads that was a self confessed Saul Goodman (or was it his brother?), he's got the answers I bet.
If I was the promoter and caught wind of this, they'd both be blacklisted. What is their stance?

This sport is dangerous enough without allowing contact... if it's for millions of dollars, i get it.. but working stiffs racing and gotta work at 7am Monday morning, it's stupidity....
MXGRyan is a tool.
My opinion on this, if it was during a race and happened organically for position. Or if the other guy took Brandon out in another race, or one of many other on track things , that's one thing.
But taking somebody out over something that happened off track , never mind stolen goggles is pretty weak. One time , yah maybe. But over and over just sounds like a great way to get booted from racing. But not something to go to the cops about.
The guy that got taken out should have talked to the promoter and got Brandon suspended or some sort of penalty. I've seen the local race orgs around me deal with take outs and un sportsmen like conduct in the past. Onetime a well known local Pro was unhappy with a lapper and when he came off the track he said some very colorful things , one of them that I can repeat on here was that he was "going to Fing kill him". Nesc suspended him and that was the end of it. And that was how I saw multiple other instances handled when lines were crossed.
I do not agree with the way Brandon is handling what happened. But I don't agree with getting the cops involved either. The take out should have been handled by the people running the races. At minimum a warning not to take him out again ,followed by suspension or not allow both riders to ride the same class if he took him out again. Whatever got Brandon riled up its gonna cost him a hell of a lot more than any goggles I've seen.
I've had my share of getting taken out and taking people out, its crazy that anybody would have the thought of involving the police. It's always just been a part of the sport to me. Sometimes a takeout resulted in some words after a moto or retaliation in another moto. A block pass or even a T bone in a lower speed corner is one thing, cross jumping and higher speed stuff that could result in major injuries is another. But still not a police matter in my opinion. It would be a bad precedent to set, what next involve police in every crash? tracks would look like a crime scene with chalk outlines.
Agreed, almost as gay as feeling the need to censor the word gay 😃
Ol' Brandon is too dumb not to know when to shut up.
Brandon's last race?
Hang on so what's going on?
Brandon and Chris don't like each because some goggles got stolen? Whatever but ok. So Brandon takes him out on the track. Now Chris is sueing Brandon saying the motorbike is a lethal weapon?? Wasn't Chris also on a "lethal weapon"?
Thats so stupid and yes it does set a very bad precedent for the sport.
Over a woman...
That would make some sense. I know I've made some dumb decisions when You start thinking with the wrong head.
Sounds like outside racing drama and they're bringing it onto the track. That's not how you handle things. This isn't just a racing incident. Its outside theft as the motive for retaliation.
