Yes, but what if she was actually a small child in wheelchair and the bus ran her over? Where's the line here. This is a slippery slope.
/s
What I'm gonna do just all of the sudden just jump up and grind my feet in somebody's couch like it's something to do? Come on, I got a little more sense than that.
...
Yeah, I remember grinding my feet into Eddie's couch.
Love how people are like "I can't condone this violence! It's so fucked up!" And I'm like "Just don't be racist." People out here everyday getting shot by police for dumb ass shit like wearing hoodies and white people want to say "He shouldn't have been looking like a thug" when people get shot but defend people for being racist? Double standard as hell. Just don't be racist. It isn't that fucking hard.
They would call us nigger then whip us, it's poetic to whip their ass for saying it nowadays.
Usually followed by the guy calling you a nigger throwing a punch.
post of the day for me, holy shit i'm in stitches.
Same here. I got teased on the bus by this pos in particular for being heavy. Every damn day I got on he'd say something about my weight. The Bus driver didn't give a shit.
What made him stop? I turned around one time and flung by backpack full of book right into his face. He never did it again. I put up with that shit for months. Everybody, and I mean everybody, has a breaking point.
"They" are different people. I don't really see the poetry in that.
I wouldn't shed any tears if a racist person dies. With that said, I don't think everyone has to agree that violence is an appropriate response. That's a perfectly reasonable stance.
"They" are racist white supremacists. Not very different tbh.
Same shit, different era. "They" just don't have the same visceral means to go about it.
Uhhh... Didn't read the article, but based on the video, the altercation seems like it started due to the people she was yelling at playing their music out loud, which is annoying as fuck on public transit, and I'm surprised the bus driver didn't tell them to turn it off. Then they start physically assaulting her because she's yelling at them.
I'm not condoning her racism, but they seem to have started the whole thing and immediately resorted to violence before she even said the word. And that last shot of her bleeding really badly on the ground outside doesn't help them at all.
How's that whole "sticks and stones" thing go? They'd already been filming her. Put her on blast on social media for this shit and call attention to how shit she is. Don't beat her though.

Did I miss the part where this woman is the leader of a group about to commit genocide?
If the person who assualted her was black I would never trust the criminal justice system to give them a fair shot.
What if, as she was stepping off the bus, aliens tried to abduct her; but the abducto beam failed and dropped her on her head? Hmmmm ever think about that? Check mate.
What a dumb piece of shit this lady is. Maybe she'll think twice about letting her racism run free.
Btw I wish queer people would start serving beatdowns like this when people pop off at us.

Pretty much.
What did she expect them to do, apologize and kiss her ass?
Another person telling black people how to act and respond, doesn't this shit get old? "Stop playing your music so loud! Stop getting mad at racism! That bus driver should've helped the poor white racist. Now now settle down!"
Get off your fucking high horse.
As soon as I saw the end of that video, I knew the Era thread would turn out like this lol.
I have no strong feelings about her getting her ass beat. Sorry.

What in the fuck? You seriously condoning people blasting their music in public?
lol come on now, "they started it"
That is a huge issue, way bigger than racism right? Just as bad as being dehumanized.
You're adding in pieces without seeing the picture of the puzzle on the box.
You're condoning calling black people who play their music too loud in public niggers?
So if I tell you to turn the music down, it's ok for me to expect to be smacked in the back of the head?
Seems reasonable.
The racist lady's reaction to that though was uncalled for. At that point, I'd just get up and move to a different seat.
that you see this as central to what happened here says a lot.
yes people are annoying sometimes. deal with it without saying racial slurs.
White Americans exist without any frame of reference for being held accountable for racism, so the "they didn't have to beat her..." in this thread is unsurprising.
If white Americans were more afraid of physical retaliation for their racism maybe they'd be a little less racist?

Absolutely not. Did you read my post, or is everybody just gonna dogpile on me now without even thinking straight?
They're blasting their music on public transit. Shit's annoying. She starts yelling at them, they physically assault her, then she calls them the n word as she gets off (I didn't defend this by the way), so somebody beats her even more.
I think for any situations there are appropriate, gray and unacceptable responses. To me this is gray, but to those who point the action wasnt appropriate it does not mean they do not recognize the struggle of black people in that scenario. Violence may be too much for them, but that does not mean they are in favor of silence just not this specific response.
No, but if you call a black person the n word infront of a bunch of people then you shouldn't expect to get off without a verbal beatdown atleast.
If you're a racist, yeah you should expect that, and the lady is a racist.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
i love these replies lmao.
We don't see her racism until she's smacked in the head.
Nice shitpost.
Did you call them the n word when you asked them to turn it down?
Lots of hypotheticals flying around today.
So what is the line for you? If somebody calls you a nigger, what action is too much of a response?
I don't enjoy violence, but there are codes of conduct in society and if you break them, well quite frankly I don't feel sorry for you if you get your ass beat.
Being racist is one of them, groping someone without their consent is another, sleeping with someone else's partner, etc. etc. I mean do stuff like that and you might get your ass beat.
I'm not for non-violence in every situation, there are situations in which certain behavior needs to be met with violence so that its understood such behavior is not acceptable. It would be nice if every situation could be settled diplomatically, but that's not the reality of the world of today.

Do you know for a fact who struck first? Because the video starts already in progress.
Actions have consequences
Speaking is an action
Simple as that, create a verbal threat, reap what you sow
The lady could've minded her fucking business, she's authority figure to tell others what they or can't do. Simple as that.
Just cause your skin a fair complexion doesn't give you the right to tell others, that your privilege allows you to speak up just cause of the pigmentation of your skin being a few hue lighter.

Im not gonna say beating the shit out of her was the right thing to do, but they gotta learn that the shit they said ain't okay. Fuck racists.
I don't give a fuck how loud your music is in public. You're in PUBLIC. The world doesn't revolve around white people feeling at peace 24/7.
Also I love the idea that you going to bat for a racist has brought you to a dead-end argument where your only deflection is some half-assed concern trolling about loud music. Beyond pathetic.
