I can't speak for everyone, but remove the white and black from your description and it accurately represents my thoughts on the video.

Again remove the white and black. Maybe the old guy did provoke it and maybe he didn't. Talking and yelling is one thing. Touching is another and the "thug" crossed that line first.

Maybe, but if one of your issues is that the criminal act of assault committed in the video wasn't aggressive enough I really don't know what to tell you.

Dude you have a fucked up perspective. I can't speak for all, but I never once thought mr amberlamps was a thug, and def never posted that. I did however think he was an ignorant fool, who ran his lips too much. Fuck being provoked. THAT is not the biggest issue. He was an adult and SHOULD be smart enough to not get involved in a war of words with a stranger. But he wasn't. And WORSE that dumb fuck is the one who escalated it from words to physical confrontation. And I am sure the outcome would have been much the same even if his first strike had been more successful.

So anyway, in short. Doesn't matter white, black, chinese. Whatever. If you put your hands on me and it ends badly for YOU that is your fault. Not mine. If I called you nigger, spick, cracker, chink, whore. Doesn't matter. A 6 year old knows "sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me"

What? Really? No one posted that the guy was a gang banger, thug, dumb nigger? Oh my mistake, I must have misread several posts. You know how we are, always looking for that non-existent racism. I'm sure that no one got a kick out of the race situation/outcome. I'm sure that the reactions would be exactly the same had the role been reversed and the older white guy had touched the black guy first and got the shit kicked out of him. Sure.

It is my contention that ice cube should have kept his ass planted in his seat. He didn't and he paid the price. End of story. It could have been and old black guy beating the crap out of a loud mouth punk ass white guy, we still would feel the same about the old man defending himself. Loud mouth punk takes a punch and the old man, old man reacts and wins by knock out. The color of skin is irrelevant.

In case you aren't catching on, Rider is using new names to describe the young gentleman each time he posts about him.

Did you miss the part where I said I can't speak for everyone? And the "dumb nigger" comment you've taken WAYYYYY out of context. So reading comprehension is either a problem for you. Or you are using your race card as a magnifying glass and it isn't working. Go back and re-read.

That dude looks nothing like Ice Cube. MC Eiht maybe, but even that's stretching it.
