Old white guys rule. Apparently a crazy unabomber beard and a t-shirt that says “I AM A MOTHERFUCKER” on it weren’t enough to deter this Ludacris impersonator from getting in old dude’s face. That and the fact that gramps is old enough to remember lynching black people IRL. Gotta pick your battles, Luda. Pick your battles.
UPDATE: And the meme begins….

“Brang da amber lamps!”
02.17.10 at 11:06 am
“keep our city clean & safe—do your part”
02.17.10 at 11:18 am
in BHM, black people make white people sit at the front of the bus
02.17.10 at 11:26 am
Damn. This thing is everywhere today. I love how there’s a 10 calmly sitting in the middle of it.
Happy Black History Month!
02.17.10 at 11:32 am
that 10 is known as “Amber Lamps” now
02.17.10 at 11:34 am
That is one great video.
“Bring amba-lance.”
02.17.10 at 11:35 am
Yes!
02.17.10 at 11:37 am
gotta love the black girl’s play-by-play:
prior to fight- “Go kick his white ass”
after ass kicking- “We can press charges, I got it on video tape”
what the fuck did that thug think was going to happen? it doesn’t pay to be 5′3″
02.17.10 at 11:41 am
“I’m kill him if I see him again”, as he sways in a pool of his own blood. ha, gotta love the ego.

@yikes: Ha, no shame!
I hope that old guy didn’t go home and have a heart attack in the kitchen.

What are amber lamps?
02.17.10 at 12:19 pm
Oh, ambulance. I get it now.
02.17.10 at 12:20 pm
haha, that old guy rules. I love how amplamps dude like hobbles to the door and walks the guy watch away “imma kill you…” while struggling to live.
02.17.10 at 12:21 pm
FINALLY something on this site worth masturbating to!
02.17.10 at 12:22 pm
HILARIOUS VOICE AT 1:47
02.17.10 at 12:23 pm
maybe he can’t pronounce ‘ambulance’ because his face just got caved in by a jab. oh lord how i wish this beating would have continued for about 45 more seconds.
Jim’s right. this is fucking masturbatory for everyone who has been forced to sit with black youth on a bus, subway or streetcar. we should have a pass to kill one per year with impunity. just one. promise!
02.17.10 at 12:33 pm
What weak ass city is this?
02.17.10 at 12:50 pm
This just made my day. That guy is a MOTHERFUCKER!
02.17.10 at 12:51 pm
If this had happened in Atlanta, Motherfucker would have been too afraid to even talk back to Amber Lamps. It’s good to see a reformed biker who’s trying to be a good gramps beat the shit out of a cracked out wanna be thug that was probably a punk in prison.
02.17.10 at 1:02 pm
the only guy who could carry off wearing a fanny pack
02.17.10 at 1:06 pm
No one is talking about the extremely attractive girl sitting down with the headphones. She’s watching the whole scene play out to Coldplay. Amazing.
02.17.10 at 1:10 pm
yo, good old San Francisco represent.
I wish blognigger was still active (not benjamin, the other dude)
This shit was so embarrassing for black people and I’m not talking about the fact that lil’ dude got knocked out. No, he deserved that.
Uh, yuck.
But you know…..how perfect is dudes shirt. Oh, its a surprise he knows how to kick ass?
02.17.10 at 1:11 pm
Some one should buy the black dude a pink t-shirt that says, “I am a Weak Ass Bitch”
02.17.10 at 1:15 pm
Ladies and Gentlemen, meet the White Rosa Parks!
02.17.10 at 1:24 pm
@Loozer Boozer: Sorry bud, I am pretty sure gramps isn’t taking shit anywhere he goes.
02.17.10 at 1:29 pm
Obviously, we all cannot get along!
THIS is why you just sit on the bus and keep your piehole shut. I hope junior enjoyed sucking his dinner through a straw for the next week or two while grampy was getting his Ensure’s comped at every senior center in town by his cronies.
02.17.10 at 1:44 pm
Because it’s AC Transit and judging by the exteriors, I think this is in Oakland somewhere, (around Civic Center maybe?). As someone who had to ride this fucking coon-town express everyday in high school, that old man is my new hero. I wish he’d move to LA and ride the bus with me to work everyday.
02.17.10 at 1:55 pm
Here’s an article where the chick that filmed it is interviewed.
http://cbs5.com/local/ac.transit.fight.2.1499482.html
02.17.10 at 2:05 pm
AC Transit = Oakland
02.17.10 at 2:20 pm
from the interview of the girl who filmed the video:
“A ‘hate criminal’ they are calling me,” Washington said. “It feels terrible. It’s not a good feeling at all. It sucks.”
what she means is, i got busted for being a racist and trying to steal the old guy’s shit
02.17.10 at 2:21 pm
Isn’t “spit shine” prison slang for suck dick?
02.17.10 at 2:31 pm
not really sure how harassing some random black dude on the bus to enact ancient racist stereotypes is heroic?? but way to be a total psychotic asshole, old white guy, one day you’ll get shot and find vindication in it i’m sure
02.17.10 at 2:56 pm
This girl may possibly be the best camera-woman ever. She caught that dirty ass, shit talking black dude get rocked and at the end she caught the ironic bench ad, “clean and safe.” hahaha
-Notice the hipster with the big ass head phone aloofly rockin’ out.
02.17.10 at 2:59 pm
My sociology professor taught me that black people can’t be racist. Y’all pinky cracker pigs need to get a mothafuckin ejukayshun.
On a more serious note I’d like to hear Obama weigh in on this highly topical event. BEER SUMMIT NIGGAS!
02.17.10 at 3:04 pm
The white guy harassed the random black dude? Some people really are racially brainwashed.
‘I see tough guys like you and I slap the shit out of em.’
02.17.10 at 3:21 pm
@ Grimey
if you listen to the conversation, it’s made pretty clear that the black guy initially said something to the white guy, thus sparking the shoe shine misunderstanding which led to the brouhaha. the white guy thought that the black guy offered him a shoe shine, when in fact black dude was simply complaining out loud (what else is new?), metaphorically I suppose, about having to shine whitey’s shoes. besides, any dumb ass who’s spent a half a second in oakland knows that it’s not uncommon to have all kinds of fuckos offer shoe shines and god knows what other service to random strangers on the bus.
02.17.10 at 3:32 pm
Fuck. ALL this shit. I wanna bang the chick in the purple tights.
02.17.10 at 3:34 pm

search for this on youtube, THE DAY AFTER THE WORLD SAW AC TRANSIT BUC FIGHT I AM A MOTHERFUCKER l & ll
it’s the “apology” from the girl that filmed it.
i’m so sorry for offending you once again streetcarnage. whenever you moderate my comments i feel like i’m getting sent to the principal’s office.

that video of cops tasing epic beard man makes me sick. he’s a vet ffs.
02.17.10 at 5:50 pm
Damn, get that 10 in Street Boners right now! She looks non fussed about the whole thing. If it was on the street she woulda just being blowing smoke in the dudes faces, looking like she could care even less. Fucking hot.
02.17.10 at 5:55 pm
geht’s noch, they have to taze him, if the cops used fists Epic Bear Man will fuck ‘em all up!
02.17.10 at 5:56 pm
am i missing something? I saw an old white lunatic doing everything he could to get some stranger on the bus to punch him and then trying to cry self-defense when the guy actually did it. how is that heroic? people who go out looking for fights are assholes, no matter how old they are, grow the fuck up you stupid kids.
ps i drive a cab in oakland, please don’t tell me i’ve been “racially brainwashed.”
02.17.10 at 6:01 pm
How did it all begin? The black guy tried to suck his own dick? I must have misheard it.
02.17.10 at 6:10 pm
I’m dying to know what purple tights was listening to.
02.17.10 at 6:12 pm
AMBER LAMPS IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL IN THE WORLD
02.17.10 at 7:35 pm
I love all the camera ladies’ “ooh, ooohh” after the first punch. That’s an eureka moment right there.
02.17.10 at 8:04 pm
Oakland’s better than Brooklyn. SF is the most boring place I’ve ever been, and I’ve been to London.
02.17.10 at 8:58 pm
most thug black guys built or not are not that tough because they’ve never had hard jobs because they don’t work a working man is full of power it’s just not flashy I’ve seen it time after time it hits them like a brick wall out of nowhere I bet gramps worked his ass off his whole life

Well played, Purple Pants. Well played indeed.

damn beetlejuice got fucked up!
02.17.10 at 10:05 pm
Speaking of Purple Pants, why don’t you send Arv or somebody less awful to go find this girl and interview her.
02.17.10 at 10:07 pm
Now this is more like it!

yeah purple pants should be a boner. 10 kitties
02.17.10 at 11:26 pm
I just love love love the oh so ass backwardness of it all, summed up, when Tyrone, sitting there bleeding, keeps repeating how he’s “gonna kill that nigger”. If he’d just complained about not wanting to shine niggers’ shoes in the first place this whole glorious debacle coulda been avoided.
White people ARE the new niggers, White People Are The New Niggers.
02.18.10 at 12:31 am
old dude is like a scared animal in the directors cut version:

02.18.10 at 1:03 am
Cool, the real Walter Sobchak.
02.18.10 at 1:12 am
HAHAHAHA Amber Lamps!! What an instigator the camera girl is. This is probably not the first time she started a mass transportation fight.
02.18.10 at 1:23 am
Why does he want M&Ms? He just got the shit kicked out of him.
02.18.10 at 4:19 am
first up, listening to the all the cheerleaders in the back with the “kick his ass” “say it again, pinky” tough-girl hard-ass street talk rhetoric…… then how quickly they switch to “OH MY GOD OH MY GOD” etc like they just saw the aftermath of an atom bomb….. is the ‘wtf’…? how can you act so hard-ass and then shit in your pants when you see someone catch a beating..?
stupids
like people talking a whole bunch of gang stuff and dont realise what getting jumped in is about. sshhtuuuuuupids. its about taking beatings as well as givin em innit.
that was a fair one plain and simple.
the other thing is this stuff happens everywhere, all over the world, everyday.
looooove attitude on public transport. goddam u see some shit out there
02.18.10 at 6:48 am
That middle class hipster is on the wrong bus. Take off yer headphones, I wouldn’t miss that shit for anything.

02.18.10 at 11:51 am
I hope Purple Pants turned off the music but kept the headphones on to appear like she wasn’t paying attention. Hopefully a girl that hot has her transit tactics down. I’m impressed that she’s even riding the bus. All the girls I know who look like her take taxis everywhere.
02.18.10 at 11:53 am
Watching this innocent black man suffer at the hands a white man is a more concrete example of how the Vietnam war continues to reinforce the patriarchal, racist, genocidal nature of our country.
02.18.10 at 3:24 pm
@Lee Ving
You are a fucking retard. This fight is about half as entertaining as the MUNI one:

Everyone knows that the only thing worse than sitting next to black people on the bus is sitting next to chinese people on the bus.
P.S. San Francisco doesn’t end at Stockton street, douche.

“Howard Zinn was a brilliant mind” There are no innocent victims your birth certificate is proof of guilt. George Carlin. Wait a minute, was your comment sarcastic. I’m pretty sure I saw a man walk across a bus to go fuck with someone.
02.18.10 at 4:49 pm
People on every site I’m on, keep asking me if I am the girl in the purple tights.
