That camera is probably what made him think he had to go force the issue. He's got a rep to protect...
It's borderline slang in a more "appropriate" form... it's not standard English, that's all. I'm an English major, so I know at least this much Thanks for contreebitting to this thread, though.

Oh! the irony. At the end of the video the bus stop bech reads: "Keep our city safe and clean do your part"
I heard most of the racial comments from the black women recording it. She picks up the old mans bag, and tells her friend "go through that ****" the white guy didn't say anything racial at all. at his age(67) he clearly misunderstood the black guy say something about Shining shoes, the old man was clearly trying to avoid any trouble, until he was approached and verbally then physically assaulted.
Why does it need to escalate to that point? I don't understand this concept of getting punk'd. That was not self-defense. He could have avoided the whole thing. Even if the black dude hit him once, he would have stopped after that. Of course, he would continue talking crap, but that's it. Oh wait, there is a young, not ugly, woman on the bus. Any time there is a mildly (very mildly) attractive woman around, testosterone levels significantly rise. I don't feel the need to understand women, but as a man I feel like I should be able to relate to other men. These are grown men, and both of them should know better.
I love how you guys can just make fun of things, that is what I will do from now on. It is pointless getting worked up over **** like this.
If you think it's the old man's fault that the situation intensified to anything more than a shouting match, you're being an idiot.
