at first it was funny to see somebody talk shit and get his ass beat and then yell "call the amber lamps".now this shit is just out of hand.actuality its really showing me how much black people are feared more than respected.a white guy beats up a black man and it didnt happen in a boxing ring and everybody goes nuts like hes the second coming of jesus.put the shoe on the other foot for a second...if it was a big black dude and a lil white rocker type dude that was talking shit and the big black guy beat him up a lot of yall would be sayin "shiiit he knew that big black guy was going to kick his ass!".white people or any other race for that matter have fist and legs and a brain just like us.black people are not unstoppable fighting machines we are just like the rest of yall.hopefully when im in traffic or a restaurant people will have more respect for us after watching the bus fight video and say to there selfs "wow,they are human just like us" not be scared for their fucking lives when we dressed a certain way in public.and most of you fools here praising this dude...it only show me what kind of cowards you are because he stood up for you and your coward ass ways.any real stand up muthafucka (white,black,mexican,asian or whatever) will be like "the man kicked his ass for talkin shit thats what he gets" and move the fuck on.most of yall sucka ass geeks making him out to be jesus resurrected.clam the fuck down its really not that serious.
While some of the response may be fear induced, I disagree that fear is the only or even primary response catalyst.
What we are seeing is the inevitable and natural response reaction to the social pressure exerted in a society where saying "nappy headed hoes" is a national issue, while conversely it is perfectly acceptable to derogate white people on a public stage for 20 minutes at a time.
Let me add a caveat your "little white rocker - big black dude" role reversal to illustrate the differences in sociological response.
During the role reversal if you had a white girl filming the altercation and simultaneously yelling "beat his black ass" or "fuck that darky up" don't you think that in itself would have elicited a completely different public response with organizations like the NAACP getting involved and demanding repercussions for saying such "racist" things?
The response to this video is the release of the racial tensions that are the opposing forces to the racially based social pressures in our society.
IMO, this is a similar response to what we might expect to find on a playground where the 2nd grade classroom has all been instructed and disciplined to not say certain things to John, but John does not have equal restrictions placed on his behavior. As soon as the kids see an opportunity they are going too attack John in the very way that he has had the freedom to do and they have not.
I realize this argument does not seem take into account the history of race relations in our country or even in the world, but it is those very relations that have dictated the current relationships between races and created this environment and it's social pressures along with the inevitable opposite response to them.
