    Everyone seen it? Familiar with it? Google it if not.
    The man is a True American Hero.
    But......
    is he a racist?
    Now for my money 100% absolutely not. He was just an elderly man, picked on by young thugs, who defended himself
    But debate rages in America as white supremacists cling to him (against his stated will) and make a hero of him

    what do we all think here?

    First of all, the whole scene went on for far too long. Bus passengers should not have to listen to that sort of garbage. The driver should have made both men leave the bus before it ever came to blows. One thing I like about NYC bus drivers is that they don't tolerate any nosense. I've been on buses in other cities where it's complete chaos. SF was the worst, with the driver cowering in the front while half the passengers were acting up and making it a Hell trip.

    I would be interested in hearing the begining of the fight. What exactly was said?

    The Epic Beard Man may be 67 years-old, but he was hardly acting like a frail little old man. It sounded like he was giving it as good as he was getting it with the trash talking.

    That said, the younger guy did follow him and he did throw the first punch. What did he expect? You can't punch someone, and then scream racisim when he fights back.

    It's a shame this has been turned into a racial issue, when what it really is just about two men acting like uncivilized bozos.
