Pyramid you're going to have to be more specific when you call someone a yob since there's two of them in that video.

big man first undermined the ticket inspector and ruined any chance of him solving it peacefully and respectfully. He then assaulted a person without giving him adequate time to defend his case.

I'm finding it difficult to understand how you can 'fail' to see that he was assaulted however, considering under legal definitions I'm confident that he was, and I'm sure you could find such legal definitions. If it's a law there's nothing to 'not see', because of that very reason...it's a law.

The word 'moron' is hardly a personal insult and I'd say you're stretching that definition a bit, but if you really were insulted then I apologise.

EDIT: I used the term in an indirect manner also, if it really is a problem then if a mod tells me I'll (or they can) edit it appropriately, but personally speaking, I don't find that it is.

Everyone deserves a chance to respond in a decent manner, and not be assaulted by a random stranger imo.

In any Court
This Punk Scammer will also be in trouble

So it's okay for a random yob to assault him then? The conductor handled the situation poorly be riling everyone up instead of sticking to procedure. We shouldn't congratulate a fat yob for comittting a needless crime.

People are only on his side because the person he assaulted was a teenager, if he did that to a woman or any other demographic then he'd be Public Enemy Number 1. It's completely hypocritical.

The Big Man asked the conductor if he wanted the yob removed. The conductor replied Yes. How is that undermining the conductor exactly?

I think any chance of it being resolved respectfully flew out the door when the yob began cursing at the Conductor.

As has already been stated multiple times on here...I dont think anyone is saying the lad was in the right for the way he spoke to the conductor.

But just because he was rude unnecessarily, does not give people free reign to assault him as they chose. If being rude was worthy of assault...half the people I deal with daily at work would be constantly black and blue.

Well I dont particularly want to be stabbed either. Nor do I assume that just because someone is young and rude, that they are carrying a knife and going to use it on me

So that gives people the right to assault teenagers? One does something bad so they all deserve a lamping? Nice logic.

If the conductor followed procedure then a situation wouldn't have arisen. Instead he chose to rile everyone up by saying it was the lad holding everyone up when it wasn't. That's the long and short of it.

It's quite funny and disturbing that you're more offended by bad language rather then violence and you think that the latter is a reasonable punishment for the former.

A chance that the yob was given and several times over....and he himself failed to respond in a decent manner.

Instead he responded by verbally abusing the conductor (despite yob knowing fine well he did not have a ticket as confirmed by his own word in the BBC news interview).

The yob clearly states that he knew he'd the wrong ticket, he then says he'd have bought a ticket if he'd been given the chance in his own words in the interview: why then did he argue with the conductor by telling the conductor that he HAD the correct ticket, ie: "I've *******ing gave you it"...

If the guy wasnt hell bent on fare dodging and pretending he had the correct ticket - and stopped arguing and cursing away: then the situation would never have arisen.

You may think it's amusing for people to be verbally abused in their place of work - I don't - and I don't care if that is a train conductor, a nurse in A&E - people have a right to carry out their employ and not be verbally abused for it.
