Bus Driver uppercut

Bus Driver Uppercuts Woman Hard! - YouTube

Wow, I wonder if he is going to have difficulty claiming unemployment. . .

"You going to jail now"
It would seem some type of violence occured before he struck her.

"You want to act like a man, you get treated like a man." Seems to support the first assault happened.

I think she slapped him, and he punched her.
Both should face charges. (It was clearly not self defense.)
I do love how she tries to claim he shouldn't have hit her.
"I'm a girl" You hit someone, you should expect to be hit back.
Don't want to get hit? Don't hit.

Don't you love how the "victim's" actions are never caught on video, but when they get a reaction it is very apparent.
Everyone thinks the rule is:
"Never hit a woman"
The whole rule is: "Never hit a woman, unless she hits you first(and you have witnesses)."

Yeah, Cleveland's the closest major city to where I live so it was on the news. She struck him 4 times and spit on him before he finally stopped the bus to take action. If she's hitting the driver when there's others on the bus, she's endangering their lives in my opinion.

Sounds like RTA fired him, but there were police officers who were supporting him stating that it was justified so I don't know if he'll get in legal trouble. There's a good chance a lawyer will take his case for wrongful termination I would imagine.

Woah, that was a huge punch. But I find it hard to feel sorry for her if she hit him four times and spat on him first. If she started the fight it's unsurprising. That is why you don't start a physical fight with a man.

I suspect the culture of 'A man can't hit a woman' is what allows things like this to happen. It makes 'hard girls' think they can get away with assault without getting into a fight like a man would.

I have to give you props for recognizing the double-standard.

 

[IanCG]

I wouldn't have done it, but can't really blame the guy.

You don't see many uppercuts anymore.

 

[TerranceL]

Nothing screams coward like picking a fight then claiming you can't get hit because you are a woman.

I was riding a bus from my satelite city when i lived in south Korea. Some drunk ornary guy started beaking at the driver right when he got on at the edge of the city. The driver was bein' a jerk back but....while we were drivin' down the highway, doin' say, 90km/h, the guy reaches his arm across the driver and starts choking him. The bus was driving in the centre lane (though a big thick cement barrier was in place) we swerved HARD right into it. Then back halfway across the other lane before we ended up breakin' in the shoulder. IT was pretty crazy. A guy held onto the nut and we drove right past police station a few kms down the road. I learned a few Korean swear words that day...

Hahaha, I can imagine, man that's crazy.

 

[muslimsoldier4life]

Video was removed, but that's okay. As a man, it takes allot of will not to hit someone weaker than you but we all have our breaking point. If women today demand to be treated as equals to men, they need to take the rewards along with the punishments that a man would face. You keep hitting me, expect to get hit back.

One does try.

You kind of get the idea she hit him, but you don't see it in the video.
But she hit him 4 times and spat on him?
Where was this in the video?
This video must have been posted by those wanting to make the driver look bad or someone with an agenda.

He should seek wrongful termination. If someone is hitting you while you are driving, and you safely stop the bus before taking care of her, then he did his job. She endangered the whole bus by attacking him while he was driving.

Just her spitting made her deserving of a justly named slap imo.

Use this as a reminder that what you see in a video doesn't mean its the whole story. Every police abuse video shows what the cop does wrong, but rarely shows what the "vctim" did to cause the incident. Don't get me wrong, police do abuse their power, but don't just assume the cop is wrong just because the video shows him beating on someone.

 

[IanCG]

If a cop is beating someone, they are probably in the wrong, regardless of what the suspect did.

You have to look for the different versions of the video, there's one that was close to 5 minutes long that shows the lead-up to the incident.

Yes, the 30 second versions look to only catch the aftermath to stir emotion, much like the Rodney King videos we all saw...they only showed the cops hitting him at the end, and didn't show the prior part where Rodney was asserting his PCP fueled strength and swatting cops off like flies.

Removed for "shocking or disgusting content"? With all the garbage they have on YouTube?

Which still didn't justify the beating afterwards.

Yes it does...if you try to peacefully control a situation and the person continues their attack or simply doesn't respond to calm approach, sometimes physical action is required.

Physical action, not a brutal beating. Do you have any sense of humanity at all?

Not for criminals who physically attack others. If someone hits you and a slight shove doesn't fix the problem, you take it up a notch until they stop attacking you.

Probably the reason why I love the fact that my state re-enacted the castle doctrine.

In Rodney King's case, when attempting a tackle doesn't work, you try 2 on 1, when that doesn't work, you try the stick to the back of the knee...when that doesn't work, you hit 'em in the head.
