67 year old man beats the hell out of thug on bus

knowyourmeme.com...

This site has the whole transcript of what occured, I believe both are at fault, the younger black man for being the first one to lay a hand on this older white man, and the older white man for provoking the younger black man, by asking for a shoe-shine, of all things in the first place.

It's really sad, stuff like this only divides the people. TPTB gets off on this stuff.

Stuff like this just helps to dismantle our society

This seems like an obvious baiting incident to me where this psychotic 67 year old man just wants to beat the # out of someone, and this black man gave this pass to him by hitting him first. I bet the first thing that came to the older man's head when he got touched was 'It's go time, I'm a bad motherf***er'

totally not cool.

the old guy roped the black guy in. totally.

old guy wanted to kick an arse. both were racist.

old guy could easily have avoided that fight. He wantd it. Old guy moved to the front of the bus before making the initiation statement... "I see tough guy's like you and I slap the s**t of them".

Here he knew had a fast exit and he had the advantage of the ground of contention, where he could come or go depending on the level of threat.

a strategic mindset. he was prepared for a fight before it begun.

Edit note: tattoo appears to be wings of the Airborne.

He moved to the front because that's where he was sitting before. He didn't do one thing to indicate he was racist unless you consider the "china man" comment racist which I don't. I think that's more a reflection of his generation. Read my post on the previous page.

I admit to taking more interest into this then I should. There was a conversation it seems that brought Epic Beard Man from the front of the bus to the back when Ambalamps passed him.

We don't know the full story of who instigated what, but Ambalamps might have dissed Epic Beard Man.

There is an apology video that seems full of lies and contradictions from the lady who recorded the video.



What ever the case may be; both are arrested and we will have to see what kind of trail comes of it.

Alright.. so I've watched this a few times over and I picked up on some things that I didn't before!!

First, here is the transcript of the beginning of the footage and the part that I'm trying to talk about...

White man: Let’s get back to business. How much you charge me for a spit-shine?
Black man: what?
White man: How much you charge me for my Stacy Adams? I’m going to a funeral on Friday…You said you… [note: Stacy Adams are a brand of shoe.]
Black man: Did you get what I said just now?
White man: Yes
Black man: Why’d a brother gotta spit-shine your shoes?
White man: You offered!
Black man: I didn’t offer you #.
White man: What’d you just say when you walked by me?
Black man: I said why, why a #in’ brother gotta spit-shine your shoes?

First let's look at this... White man: How much you charge me for my Stacy Adams? I’m going to a funeral on Friday…You said you…

"You said you... " too bad we didn't get to hear the end of that or we would KNOW what the black guy said to the old man when he got on the bus! (the black man says "what?" before he finished)

IT IS IMPORTANT TO WATCH THE VIDEO AGAIN NOW AND TAKE A VERY CLOSE LOOK AT THE FACIAL EXPRESSIONS OF BOTH MEN!

When the Black man says "did you get what I said just now?" in the video, this is just after they both take off their glasses, the white guy stumbles and you can see the white guy's eyebrows go down with his mouth slightly open... THIS IS 110% A FACIAL EXPRESSION OF CONFUSION/DISBELIEF.

Look at both men! They are looking at each other both with a very easily defined "WTF..?" look!

Black man says "whys a black guy got to spit shine your shoes"

White man MAKES A GESTURE TOWARDS THE FRONT OF THE BUS when he says "You offered!" The black guy says "I didn't offer you #" and you can see old man stumble again, not knowing what to say, and it looks like it is a point when it clicked in his head that there is a misunderstanding going on and he asks "What'd you say...."

Then until the old man gets up and moves you can keep watching their facial expressions and they're both looking at each other with CONFUSION on their faces!

I, nor anyone else, KNOWS what the black guy said to the old man at the front of the bus. But their facial expressions (and the arm gesture to the front) don't lie... they were both looking at eachother dumbfounded because I'm pretty certain neither one of 'em knew what the hell was going on!!

WHITE GUY DID NOT JUST SHOW UP AND ASK FOR A SPIT SHINE FROM THE BLACK MAN! We are missing a HUGE piece of info and that is whatever the black guy said to the white guy.. "YOU SAID YOU..." and it cuts off. Sure wish black guy let him finish his sentence now!

AND LIKE A LOT OF US HAVE BEEN SCREAMING HERE... the fight itself isn't about race!! It was over a miscomunication/misunderstanding. And as a matter of fact, the fight WOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED if the black guy didn't strike the white guy FIRST!! There's nothing illegal about talking crap (unless youre the black guy towards the end of the video who says hes going to kill that n---- if he comes back, death threats are illegal) ... but telling someone you'll slap the crap out of them, not illegal. Annoying? Immature? Yes, we've all said that a thousand times already. But despite the old guy being a grumpy old cook, he didn't do anything wrong, he actually did the right thing... he protected himself when he was physically attacked.

Here is a hilarious video for that guy who was running around here earlier telling everyone they were racist lol I demand he goes and trolls this black dude's youtube page for being racist and sticking up for the white guy in this instance... this poor black guy in this video can't look past his black hating racist eyes to see what really went down here!!! I can't believe people are still so biased these days... / sarcasm lol hehehe



Drop the race thing people. Amba Lampz got everything he asked for and deserved when he punched a 67 year old Vietnam Vet (with a military tattoo on his forearm by the way, caught that on the extra views too... too bad the black guy wasn't very observant or that could have been hint hint, don't punch him).

I will stand up and cheer for ANY person that defends themselves this well when they are physically attacked! Black, white, yellow, brown, orange or purple, a dog, a kitty kat... I don't give a crap...

Read my post on the previous page. I am pretty sure that's what happened before the camera started rolling.

I have to agree, Ambalamps walked by EBM and said something that brought EBM to the back of the bus to talk about the comment.

It appears you have it on the mark, I think Ambalamps started the chain of events that ended poorly for him.

The trial should prove interesting...

Those of you who think that the white guy was instigating this have it all wrong. What most likely happened in this;

The black man boards the bus and starts heading to the back. As he approaches the white man who is already seated he notices his feet are in the isle and thus in his way. The black man then says "why a brother gotta spit shin your shoes", basically telling the white guy to move his feet. Misinturpreting this, the white guy get up and goes to the back to ask the black man how much to shine his shoes and that's where the video picks up.

MAN!!! That's the simplest and most concise answer and explains the transcript completely.... nice deducing skills 3000gt! And also explains what I was saying about the confusion!!! EVEN MORE, if you read what III said a couple pages ago (lol) .. I said that it looked like to me the white guy was being a dick and twisting/manipulating his words whatever the black guy had first said.

Sorry I missed your post.. when I was watching their facial expressions and saw total confusion I just went to the end and replied!

We need "you're all racist!" guy back here.. I want to know what he thinks!

The old man was Bin Laden in disguise. That's why we can't find him with our spy satellites, virtual strip search machines and security cameras on every street corner. The al-Qaeda conspiracy theorists were right all along. The sleeper cells are everywhere. It's pure terror on public transportation.

I am going to take a screenshot of the point in the video with the thug holding his face where he just got socked, just so I can make it my desktop background and see it every time I use my computer.

I love this video personally. The old man didn't initally look confrontational at all to me in the video, just confused. The thug on the other hand looks like he can't wait to show everybody how much of a badass he is. I'm sick of this stupid thug mentality BS in our society, it's getting far...far...far beyond out of hand. People think it's cool to be an egotistical asshole, and that it's OK to do whatever the hell you want and if anybody disagrees just beat them. Just makes life suck that much more for everybody who has the misfortune of having to be around them. Maybe some people just want to be left alone and breathe in peace...but NO that's too much to ask for, gotta stir things up for no reason other than to stir things up! I mean what good is life if people aren't scared of you, the super cool thug rapper wannabe? Jesus...sometimes I just want to go to a bar and have a drink and talk with friends, or take the bus downtown to walk around, and nowadays it seems like I can't even do that without thinking somebody is going to try to kick my ass for blinking the wrong way. Re-GD-diculous.

This thug didn't get what was coming to him, just a small taste. I await the next video.

haha this guys awesome. We need more of these guys patrolling Oakland

Not really. Neither are you. And you spelled Chief wrong in your username. Way to go, boiiii.

I am an ATS addict, so I am on here every day, though I rarely login and normally read posts and deal with the ads etc. I was actually moved to login on this specific topic. Too often in my own city, I watch people "try" others. They try to bully, pick fights, intimidate, all do to their own insecurities and trying to show off in front of girls etc. Every now and then I witness something like this video. Someone is pushed to far, forced to defend themselves after removing themselves from the situation, and ends up hurting the bully. The only sadness I see in this situation is for the weakness and insecurity inside a pitiful young black man on the bus. What a complete loser. Pick a fight, insult the man in front of you, he moves and you continue to bully him, then you get your face punched in and want to press charges. What a joke. What a pitiful sad human you are. I hope you pressed charges and the cops watched your video and then laughed in your face. You are a sad, insecure, dispicable human being. Kudos to your girlfriends that filmed you getting beat down by a man more than twice your age. The best I can hope for you is that you learned your lesson, but unfortunately, you seem to stupid to learn from anything as I heard you say you would kill him if you see him again. Welcome to reality.

I blame the shortened jingoistic American teacher slogans he was raised on.

"I before E except after C..." (...and then just leave out the rest).
