Perfect.
(he sure did a lot of damage for what looked like a couple glancing blows)
The black guy threw the first punch, though.It seemed like the old man started it though.
Here’s my take /b/. White old guy thought the black dude asked if he wanted his shoes shined. White guy asked him about it. Black dude thinks the white guy is being racist. Can't blame the black dude for thinking that. White guy clears it up saying he thought the black dude was offering a shoe shine. White old guy tells the dude he's not racists and he thought he was offering a shoe shine.
Old guy realizes the black guy didn't offer a shoe shine. So he moves to the front of the bus to avoid confrontation. The black guy wont let it rest. Black guy throws first punch and gets beat up.
You can't blame the white guy for beating the black guy up. Also, you can't blame the black guy for thinking the white old guy was being racist at the beginning of the conversation. The black dude should have realized the white old guy misheard him.
Even though the black guy kinda deserved it. I felt sorry for the guy when he was asking for an ambulambs.
EBM- How much will you charge me for a spitshine?
Black guy - Wha?
EBM-How much will you charge me to shine my stacey adams? Im going to
a funeral on friday.
Black guy - Why?
EBM- Hm?
Black guy- You hear what I said just now? Why a brotha gotta spitshine yo'
shoes?
EBM - Hey man you offered!
Black guy - I didnt offer you shit
EBM- What did you just say when you walked by me?
Black guy - I said WHA-Whay a ****in brotha gotta spitshine yo' shoes.
EBM- Eeeh you don't have to
Black guy- Why a white man cant shine his shoes?
EBM- It could be a chinaman, It dont matter
Black guy- Look dude
EBM- I aint predjudice.. You think I'm predjudice?
Yeah, he tried, but the old guy blocked it.The old man is a liar... he didn't hit him in the face.
But he probably tried.
The white old man was huge, black guy was an idiot for picking a fight
I'm pretty sure the old guy is racist.
No offense, but the fact that he said Chinaman really kind of confirms it. Though it's possible the older generations are unaware of the racism behind that word and constantly forget there is such word as Chinese man.
Chinaman ain't a racist term...newb
yep, because saying something you don't realize is racist, makes you racist. And besides, thats about as racist as saying Yankee instead of American.
I know thats why you said it, and that still means you think someone is racist for using a term they don't realize is racist.
I did say I'm pretty sure he is a racist, but I also did say he probably didn't realize what he said was racist, which implies he is simply unaware and not racist.
Still, whether he intended it to be racist or not, it doesn't stop the fact that what he said was racist. There is no barrier that enables ignorance to be forgiven and forgotten. The old guy might not know he was being racist (despite what the video suggests), but you can't assume the whole world knows what you think. A lot of people get misunderstood, but that won't stop the reprimanding.
