IDK, man. This stuff really makes me mad especially as a black man myself. People of any ethnicity other than white or Asian are just walked over or mocked in the Bay Area.

Then you have the occasion where we are assaulted and no one gives a damn while it happens.

The other day, a black guy with a walker fell down in the middle of market Street and almost everyone just sat and looked at him until me and someone else came to help him. Man.. it's just infuriating.

Better get to killing then, Paul Kersey.

People playing music loudly on public transportation are The Absolute Worst.

But these guys are hardo psychos who took it way too far. Should definitely face charges if caught.

Jesus Christ. I find people playing loud music on public transportation as annoying as the next guy, but to resort to laying hands on and tossing a kid out is ridiculous.

Decent footage of the two melters at least so hopefully they see some appropriate justice.

God, what precious little snowflakes who clearly have nothing of importance to care about in their lives

You ride the subway in NYC and some dude gets on the car with a huge-ass speaker blasting horrible music and you just sit there like "well, I guess this is happening now"

Obviously no reason to physically accost anyone
Yup. At most someone might come up and smash the external speakers if they're using some or just grab their phone if they're blasting it from a phone's speakers. Haven't ever seen it escalate to physical violence against the person themselves. This is both disgusting and, at the same time, not the least bit surprising...

Ummm I get that playing music like that on puplic space could be annoying. But what the fuck keeping the dude in a headlock over it. You don't physically attack someone for being an asshole.

Know your place Black folk. If a White guy tell you you're music is too loud you best listen to your better, or risk getting thrown out of a vehicle into traffic. The more things change the more they stay the same....

A nice reminder that being able to stoically tolerate the occasional annoyance is a good character trait.

Stupid frail ass motherfuckers

I dislike people playing music without headphones as much as the next transit user.

But what the actual fuck, sit and stew in your disapproval like a reasonable human being, fuck these guys.

i read this the title, and thought it was not too bad, as people should not force loud music on others, but the way they handle that was far too extreme. Jesus christ.

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU AMERICA

This is clear assault. The only people who have the right to escort someone off the train is the staff. This is truly fucking mental.

I'm sorry but why does the lad have to press charges? This is the sort of thing they should get arrested for anyway. Is US law that different?

Post a single example
Come on now. I'm not talking about ERA. I'm talking about reading those hate filled comments on the article. It's pretty obvious what these people do. Any time they see violence against a Black man, they deserve, should have complied, etc. but the there could be good people on the other side type shit when it comes to the violence of White Supremacists. How about Trump. Perfect example with his crusade against those 5 Black men in New York.

Disgusting behaviour from those two individuals for sure but i don't see anything to suggest these "racial motivations" mentioned in the article.

I usually tell them to turn it down a bit. Most times they turn it down, but it's about 50/50 on if they turn it down just a notch or if they turn it down a reasonable amount.

Yeah I see two scumbags.
But I also see a train full of cowards.

An old man and an overweight neckbeard. Good job people way to stand up for your fellow humans.
Lets just whip out our phones and post it on twitter instead.

Pathetic.

I honestly don't know what's worse, the two assailants or the rest of the people who just stand there and watch.
Shameful.
Come on man you are putting too much on the spectators. Obviously these dudes are nutjobs who would throw a kid off the bus for playing music, but you would expect someone to physically intervene? They gotta stay safe and they can do the right thing by letting the proper people know and by simply recording. No one needs to risk their life

Most people are not going to get involved in a pissing match between a male that won't turn off his loud music and two aggressive males that have decided to do something about it. It's basically toxic masculinity run amok. The fact that the poilce are investigating everyone involved just reinforces that no one else wanted any piece of that.

When is someone going to stop recording and jump in and help? SMH.

Shit just makes me so mad.

Man, two full grown adults couldn't even push a teenager off a train.... But seriously fuck those two and shame on those watching in silence. Yeah I heard some people, but no one really got up and de-escalated the situation
