Damn, that old guy is brutal. Hardcore grandpa for the win.

Here's an interview of him. Turns out he was going down to get some weed for his arthritis.

I read something about the old guy starting it, and having prior arrests and citations for similar stuff.

The "young punk" is actually in his 50s if memory serves. Also the old guy is mentally unstable, not to mention he actually started it.

From all the accounts I've read the black dude was in the wrong. Something to the effect of getting way into business that was neither offensive to him nor did it have anything to do with him.

EDIT: Could someone link me to a source that says it was the old dudes fault?

I checked this thing out again, and neither guy conducted himself that well. At 50 and 67, they were both too old for that sort of thing. The bottom line is that the vet is a big guy who must be in pretty good shape, and he clocked a smaller, drunk guy.

He didn't exactly save civilization. I will say the black guy should have kept his seat when the white guy walked away.

I prefer that old lady telling them to calm the **** down. The older guy kept teasing him back into the argument.

Really? The younger guy followed him after the old guy moved, and the younger one kept talking smack. Still, both should know better.

And the younger one then walked away too, but the old one kept insulting him. Both should have known better indeed.

I remember seeing that a long time ago, not on here though. That happened in Oakland if I remember correctly.
