What did that dude really think he would accomplish with that weak punch/slap he threw? He got lit up, and deservedly.

Maybe he thought that a guy sporting a fanny pack and a light blue shirt declaring his affection for his mother would be easily scared.
 
saw that this morning.

sounds like the black guy said:
"bring the M&M's"


EDIT: this would be a perfect candidate for a FUCK YEA comic

Yeah, that's all he did THIS TIME, but he did say "next time I'm gonna kill that n*****" at the end of the video, long after the old dude had already left.

Clearly that's not what he said, he said "bring the ambilamps"... which makes a lot more sense.

I mean with this video it's pretty open shut what happened regardless of what led up to the situation...so there isn't any intangibles really.

The "chinaman" comment really has no meaning here. It is offensive. However I would say a large percentage of the American population doesn't find it that way and if used most likely in a manner that a Asian wouldn't take offense / possibly clarify.

i would agree, it's offensive but it isnt meant to be here, it's just the habits of a 67 year old man.

The fact that anyone supports Hillary boggles my mind... I have tested between 130-160 on IQ tests
This video makes me miss LA and riding the buses to and from work to Santa Monica because so much absurd shit like this would happen all the time.

The girl in the headphones was pretty damn cute.

Hard to tell from the video first time how it went down in full, but props to the old dude for trying to dispell the tension by moving out of the way, and it should never have escalated to the point of violence.
 
Damn the old dude really lost it near the end.

"HE FUCKING HIT ME. IT WAS SELF DEFENSE."

:lol was that black guy crying on the floor?

Wish the whole convo was filmed to see if the old man was rascist or not.

But wtf, the camera-girl stole the old man's bag at the end, wtf!

Impossible to tell who started the beef but the white dude removed himself from the conflict going as far away as he could. Judging from his punch, it wasn't for fear of getting his ass kicked.


I blame the people who egged him on to go to the front of the bus after the old guy. Having seen my share of fights, there's almost always someone on the sidelines instigating things.

It means he wants the peace increased. What's so hard to understand?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say motormouth saw what he assumed was an easy target due to the old guy's sense of fashion, probably cracked wise about his shoes; at which point his girlfriends started recording the exchange.

I don't see why the old timer would mention "You offered to shine my shoes". :\

but I am a sheep
Guy got what he deserved, I am sorry but you don't pick a fight with a 67 year old man unless you yourself are also 67 years old or very close in age. :lol

he being the uploader?

well the username is iyanna, so i figured it was the girl. also, it starts by saying theres still racism which implies an attack on the white guy (i think), but then the comment ends by saying "why black ppl gotta talk shit, increase the peace and dont talk shit". im assuming this is coming from the bus girl which is why im so interested.

side note: i checked the uploaders profile and it's getting raided by 4chan :\

Knowledge is power, guard it well
Reminds me of the Busta Rhymes cut 'Abandon Ship' :lol

That's what he gets for following him up to the front. Get'em old one.

I was taught to never test an old man. :lol

I love how when the guys walking away off the bus the black kid is still saying "i'm gonna fuck you up". Don't people ever learn their lesson?

Haha I was being facitious... I have no idea, man.
 
Rather avoid the whole racism angle of the situation. But the black man needs to stop being a bitch and accept the ass whooping. You can't get your ass beat and then start saying "I'm gonna kill that nigga."

EDIT: Lady in the purple had me :lol She never said a word, she just kept watching. its what I would have done

Yeah, she was the one recording the whole thing. Unless the video was found somewhere else and just upped to the youtube.

probably...I guess its just hard for me to believe that somehow the conversation became about racism...Ridiculous.

And rewatching, the bag stealing is fucking hillarious. "ooo" :lol
 
Racism is so confusing sometimes.

I just asked my fiance if she thought "chinaman" was a racist term. She said yes (she's chinese), but didn't think "irishman", or "frenchman" were. The biggest surprise is that she doesn't think "oriental" is racist. She is really offended by "chink" though, but I think everyone agrees about that one. She said she thinks "chinaman" was used as a slur, rather than simply being a word that was commonly used in a negative context. She strangely doesn't feel that "irishman" is the same, but she may not be aware about how much racism there was toward the irish in this country.

to summarize:
- black guy says "why a brother got to spit shine shoes? why can't a white man spit shine shoes"
- white guy asks him how much (likely to antagonize him, but plays innocent and says he thought he was offering)
- black guy says he's pissed off and tells him to "get the fuck out his face...and will whip his ass, etc."
- white guy talks back, and ultimately goes to the opposite end of the bus
- back and forth trash talk continues, black guy approaches white guy but walks away
- white guy says "I've see tough guys like you and I slapped the shit out of them"
- black guy approaches and punches white guy
- white guy knocks out black guy
- girl with camera steals white guy's bag


They're both idiots and there's a whole lotta racism on that bus

I don't know why I thought of Gran Tourino when I watched this.

LOL at the comments.

Also Im 33 and in nice shape. I would not have fd with that old man. His instincts are that of a killers. No thinking, just boom.

Huh "chinaman" is considered a slur by some?

(sorry too lazy to read whole thread)

edit: actually yeah...now that I think about it. I guess its just such an old fashioned term I've never really thought of it.

chinaman is a slur, no one uses frenchmen or irishmen to describe a race. still the old man didnt mean it offensively, he's just... old.
