Never pick a fight with an old man, if he's too old, his "Momma" died, and he doesn't give a (insert expletive), he'll just kill you. Or if your lucky, kick your a**, and leave you knocked out for 20 minutes,....

This dude is just not the one to pick on. Granted he kinda doesn't back away from any confrontation, he looks in great shape for 60+ years old.

I believe the word is:

or·ner·y
1.
ugly and unpleasant in disposition or temper: No one can get along with my ornery cousin.
2.
stubborn: I can't do a thing with that ornery mule.

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

nice work....
Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

Best be gettin yo blood up off dis bus flo......

I believe the proper terminology is "Smack Down".......and race was not the issue. This old man would have done the same thing to a cocky white trash punk as well.

"Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst."

Sometimes a good couple of blows, teaches a lesson not soon forgotten. Next time Malcolm X wannabe wants to pick on an "old" man, he'll think twice,.....

You sure that wasn't Haz???? ;)

The Non-Gun Stuff thread in the Cafe has similar posts but with a third video of the black guy giving his side of it.

I also searched for     67 year old beats the      on gogle and found several more videos including another interview of the old man and a video of fight after it left the bus.

—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster

The link came to me today from a CA cop. I see on Google (thanks sol) it happened on Feb. 17th so it's old news now. The reason I think it deserves the mention on D&T is the dude won because on one level he controlled the situation and when it came to it he had the ability to put the threat down. I think that is a basic tool in the bag for confrontations. Identify the threat, recognize the level of force or action needed, don't put yourself in a position to simply react, drive the situation to your conclusion. Every deal is different but these elements are in every successful encounter.
That dude was big and he was a predator, he had snuffy figured out from the start. Being from Chicago... how many white boys deal drugs and prostitutes there without mob connections? How many of his old friends recognized him? lol.

I think there were several angles to look at from a confrontational point.

One in the area of escalation. If one or both had just STHU, it shouldn't have went that far.

Another is underestimation of opponent. The younger underestimated his adversary because his target was older, seemingly not taking size and potential ferocity into consideration.
"I expect perdition, I always have. I keep this building at my back, and several guns handy, in case perdition arrives in a form that's susceptible to bullets. I expect it will come in the disease form, though. I'm susceptible to diseases, and you can't shoot a damned disease." ~ Judge Roy Bean, Streets of Laredo

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

"When it comes to the enemy, just because they ain't pullin' a trigger, doesn't mean they ain't totin' ammo for those that are."~PegLeg

That old man was looking for a fight and knew that kid would see "age" not not size.
