The part where he talked about him being knocked out for 22.5 minutes had me cracking up at my desk
:lol :lol :lol

Same here.

Who knows? Maybe he'll end up in the upcoming Medal of Honor game.

I can tell he's crazy by the varying changes to the story. Plus, apparently, he's still shooting guns at people, and had been in prison for 14 years for drug dealing and pimping

Yeah... I hope he's making up the shooting bit or else he just admitted to a crime.

He's sort of a hypocrite, he says they should remove thugs off the street but admits to being a former drug dealer and a pimp? :lol

I agree with that, but at the same time he clearly views that past in a negative light and I think he was mostly referring to murderers.

And if his account of it is accurate, the shooting would have been in self defense.
 
I'm surprised the Internet and its vastness hasn't found that girl yet. Although i don't think she is anything special its very funny what she has become.

I didn't see the comparison put forth until I read the YouTube comments but he really is an elderly Solid Snake that's dealing with lifelong PTSD :lol
 
Man that dude is crazy. Maybe 10% of the story he just told is actually true. Come on. Dude showed him a knife? He stomped on the guy? Guy was knocked out for 22 1/2 minutes? You could already tell that this guy is the kind of guy that is always telling these loud boisterous tales annoying everyone within earshot. But man did he DudeBro the shit out of that story. I expected him to eventually claim that he came back in a fighter plane to finish the guy off.

He also said the guy punched him three times before he responded. I counted one weak deflected punch.

He has some kind of mental illness.

Ah, so now we know how it started in regards to the shoe-shining thing. He wasn't even talking to the black guy. Yes the old man is mentally ill, but I believe him. Sounds to me like this guy isn't "racist" like all the Word Police and Thought Police here were trying to brand him as.
Well it was pretty evident even with just the initial video that the black people on the bus were racists.

FYI - EBG walked right into a live news broadcast this morning on KRON4 (local bay area station). There was a pedestrian killed last night during a police chase in North Beach (RIP) and the reporter was there for a live report when EBG walked into the frame. He quickly took off across the street and back the way he was walking. Awesome. Oh and link for those with audio trouble. Currently the first video under "Around the Bay"

I feel bad for the guy. Especially when he started talking about how happy he was that the cops bought him coffee and let him ride (up front) in the squad car. If what he says is true about what led up to the "Ali Shuffle" - the stuff said off camera - those idiots in the back deserve to have hate crime charges brought up against them. And no, I'm not kidding.
 
I was in tears when he started talking about the "Ali shuffle" and knocking the guy out for 22.5 minutes :lol

EBM is even more Epic !!

The dude is fucked up in the head however. When he starts crying in s split second that's when I realized he most have gone through some insane shit during Vietnam.

Oh and he totally needs to be in COD7 if it's true in Vietnam :D

it kinda matches up with the guy an article posted earlier in this thread said about what he witnessed that day at the bus stop.

He arguably baited a black person about shining shoes and used the terms "chinaman", "Boy", and "cotton picking motherfucker" (vid 2). On top of that someone who knows him IRL confirmed in this thread that he's a crazy racist homophobe. But you choose to ignore all that and believe him because that one sentence, amongst hyperbole and blabber, confirmed your preconceived biases.

:lol or the ONE girl shouting racial shit. Way to cast generalizations on all the blacks in the vid. Good job.

Generally, when I am in a crowd of white people and I see someone of another race being picked on for no other reason than that of their race, I do my best to make it clear that I do not approve. If you happen to have the misfortune to be surrounded by racists who share your skin color, don't be surprised if people assume you are a racist.

But it was only one black person out of all the other black people on the bus, many of whom were trying to calm the two down. Are you really trying to say that its fair to generalize a bus load full of people based on what just one dumbass said? honestly people are going out of their way to make EBG look a damn hero.

I don't care if EBG is racist or not.

If you get set off by "I see tough guys like you and I slap the shit out of them," you need to be locked the fuck up. Who cares whether it started with racist baiting. The actual fight resulted from a race-neutral comment.

OMG! My masculinity! If I don't defend myself from the terrible words of this old man, what will humanity think of me!

Uhg. It's too bad he could talk after his beating.

Yes. They are either cowards, racists or morons.

Doesn't matter if it is one person or 20. If you look like the racist, try to give the victim and other witnesses a clue that you are not one of the racists. Besides making sure that no one gets the wrong idea about you, it is a good way to shift the direction of the encounter. The racist becomes less bold when he realizes the crowd that looks like him does not think like him.

how does this even make sense? The only black people in the back who knew eachother was camera woman and her friend (who made the pinky and white ass comments). Camerawoman is filming a heated argument which lead to a fight, is she supposed to pause it and lecture her friend? or was everyone on the bus (except for Amber) too preoccupied with watching the confrontation? Some of you guys are trying a bit too hard.

Read the second post.

Some of you are not tying hard enough.

I met a white racist in Atlanta last time I visited. He said some mean things to me on the street, while a few other white people tried to calm down the situation. I guess every white person that lives in Atlanta must be racist, a coward, or a moron.

You have the girl and the guy. I didn't say everyone on the bus was racist. The sentiment after the incident was pretty apparent as well.
