An action creats an action, society is breaking down, we the death penalty back to give normal people hope that you can’t do what you like to others.

Had a good chat with a retired prison officer who worked with grade a prisoners,
He was saying once they had a dangerous sex offender who due for parole, the did a prison search and found notes detailing plans for his next crime involving a 14 year old boy raping torturing him and rapping him in barbed wire they took what they found to the govnor but no action was taken. The prisoner was released and a month later he committed the crime word for word. |

Kid was almost certainly in the wrong here, despite what we are shown
Young people nowadays know to rein it in when a camera is on them. The kid was fully aware the camera was out and knew to change his stance on the situation to save face when this video was inevitably put on social media. The driver wouldn't have reacted like that for nothing and knowing how kids are nowadays I can safely assume the kid was probably being a lil tosser |

In my experience, when kids / teens are acting like this, usually trying to show off, all it takes is a certain look / laughing it off to make them feel suddenly self conscious and a bit daft. They WANT an angry reaction, that's the whole point ![]() |

bus drivers are just failed bouncers, they all have a disgusting attitude towards passengers..
a passenger should have got up and lamped the bully. |

His blood is bad.

I'm sure there's more to it than what we're shown but i can't imagine there was any reason to call him a fat boy and put his hands on the kid

To play devil's advocate on the thread, bus drivers do take a bit of abuse and I'd guess this driver had been harassed by a few passengers already and this kid just happened to be the straw that broke the camel's back. Its still not OK though. Smack of him deciding to take out his frustration on a kid who is clearly much smaller than him... I doubt he'd have been out of his cab so quickly if it was some angry big bloke in his 40's mouthing off. Not a good look, really.
It would be like me having a bad day with the rougher customers and then snapping at Wee Betty for taking too long to remember the numbers she wants for her 49's. |

Both are in the wrong but the driver more so for forgetting he is a grown ass man and acting like a child. Embarrassing behaviour from him, he shouldn't work in public facing roles if he can only exacerbate situations and get physical rather than diffuse situations.
He would have been in the right if he only remembered that he was the adult in this situation. |

As TS said, he wouldn't have tried that with another man who would have likely fought back if he tried to shove them about. Just a weak bully with an immature mind.

Well, the boy called him a prick so obviously the bus driver is allowed to threaten him and aggressively push him.
Christ. Why are we debating this, he should be charged with assault... he should also grow a pair, a child calling you a name shouldnt make you react this way.

The ONLY time it's considered acceptable to use physical force is in physical self defence. This is a fact when it comes to legality, and also my strong opinion when it comes to morality. The latter is up for debate but the former I'm afraid is just not; putting your hands on someone for calling you names is assault. It's not a grey area. Whether or not someone is CHARGED with assault for it would depend on if injury was caused, provocation would be taken into account, and so would past conduct. But it's still assault. The bus driver would most likely only be warned not to do it in this case - if he's previously clean. If he makes a habit of it hell end up being charged. Because it isn't legal.

In my day the conductor (yes an actual conductor) would have booted the brat off and given him a thud around the lug (and more if the conductor had been a man)
