Bus driver is guilty of assault.
What he SHOULD have done, as man, as a professional, as a representative of his city, was to GET OFF THE BUS and call the police.
It makes me sick that there are people defending this man. He's a f'ing thug. If you think this guy was acting appropriately, I fear for the safety of YOUR partner.

Interesting. This woman got treated as she treated another. And now it's a problem?
So you're saying that any assault on a man by a woman is OK?

Call the cops and pull the bus over. If he has to step off the bus so he is not in a closed environment with a lunatic do it. It seperates himself and protects his passengers.
Do what you have to do to diffuse the situation.
If the passenger was a 6 foot 6, 300 lbs man do you honestly believe he would have punched him? Hell No!!
My point? Be the grown up. Not some animal who uses anothers actions as justification for your misdeeds. Don't resort to violence just because you can or know you will win.
The passengers actions did not justify his reaction.

I'm sorry Philly Law Enforcement Officers are so bad, (I assume you are referring to them), but I'm sure one simply cannot just lump them ALL of them into a single statement of being brutish, violent modern day cop. Where I live we've got an awesome Police/ Sheriff's Department. Yes from time to time one might lose his temper and screw up, usually the younger ones that get a little too amped, but we're lucky to have so many caring and devoted people who have chosen that career in our crazy violent times and putting up with situations that occur such as this disturbance on the bus.edit on 13-10-2012 by Lonewulph because: (no reason given)edit on 13-10-2012 by Lonewulph because: (no reason given)

Training 101 would have kicked in and he would have had the national guard there in two minutes. How many bangers have riden his bus that have loud talked him? He took the time to argue with the girl. He was not scared or thought that the passengers were in any danger. A real man would have shown this stupid kid a jail cell by simply calling the cops and smiling while she was arrested. But he played along and lost his temper so the bigger kid on the playground won by default. My point? Be the grown up. Not some animal who uses anothers actions as justification for your misdeeds.

The point being you are clearly sexist by suggesting a "REAL MAN"
