I think a little shove to the chest barely qualifies as “attack”. Smashing in his face was a complete over-reaction, and I hope you were joking about “preserve your life”, because otherwise you’re seriously blowing it out of proportion.
Neither party was in the right, both were egging each other on. We didn’t see what started the whole thing, but they were BOTH acting like “goons”. And the old guy proceeded to lie about it, as the other guy clearly didn’t hit him in the face.

LOL @ Barely qualifies as an attack…
I wlll tell you first hand. If someone, anywhere in a public place puts their hands on me, be it a push or a shove, ESPECIALLY after I MOVED AWAY from the situation, I would break their face too. Regardless of if it was a thug black guy or a thug white guy who touched me.
I personally have only had fights with white people in my life which is jsut how life played out for me.
But seriously, people saying that the the white guy was wrong because it was racially motivated? Fuck off. Be color blind about it. Would you feel the same way if both dudes were black, or if both dudes where white?
What if it had been the opposite situation? where the black guy moved away and the white guy hit him? I would sure as hell be backing up the black guy because he DID THE RIGHT THING AND MOVED AWAY.
Moral of the story:
-
If someone puts their hands on you, you have the right to defend yourself be it a push or a shove.
-
You’re an idiot.
-
Cut the racism/reverse racism out.

I agree with what you wrote, just wanted to point out there is no such thing as “reverse racism”.[/quote]
Thanks.
I’m aware that there’s no such thing as “reverse racism”, but they say it enough on the news for dumb people to relate with.
Oh and I also wanted to mention the fact that the 3 people sitting and taping in the back of the bus were yelling things like “kick his white ass” and callin the old guy “pinky”. So the old white guy also probably felt he was being threatened by a group of people now.
We don’t know what started the argument initially, but it is clear that THREE people were saying intentional, equally as racial comments to ONE man.
3 > 1 = the Lone bearded guy probably felt even more threatened and was forced to defend himself after he was attacked.
