What kind of mental capacity are you exhibiting when you're an adult who's spitting on strangers? Slighlty less than the guy who gets spat on and STILL doesn't get involved when it escalates to a scene of violence. Sorry, but this kind of idiocy makes me start to approve of an Hitlerian type 'cleansing' of our society based upon intellect and simple decency.
You hit the nail on the head DECPTCN. Let's look past the Innocent bystanders that did nothing, what about the manager
He gets spit on and then watches some poor guy get his ass kicked. I would have jumped over the counter and tried to break it up, maybe at that point the Innocent bystanders standing there with their thumb stuck where the sun does not shine would have done something.
He got 4 years in Jail, he will be out in 2.
Poor guy is lucky he lived or did not have brain damage. 
No diggity. I suppose the single point of poetic justice in this case is that the cowards who just onlooked probably didn't know that there chickens**t inaction was caught on video and everybody was going to see it. I don't care if that ws my worst enemy getting beat down....I can't stand by while someone gets attacked without true provocation. Maybe that's just me, I'm old fashioned. The two who started the whole pathetic scene over not being able to wait 5 lousy minutes should henceforth have their pizza thrown to them in their cage with the rest of the primates.Originally posted by NJTurbo

Army MP, grow up man. I have friends in the military and they always conduct them selves with great respect for others. Don't set a bad example.
Watching stuff like that makes me want to carry. I never felt like I wanted or needed a gun, but in that type of situation, especially had it been a friend or loved one, I would have had to kill that guy. Face it, the only way that guy was going down was if EVERYONE in the place got on him, and obviously in todays society full of pu$$ies and morons thats not going to happen.
DCEPTCN, I know EXACTLY what you mean. I won't say it either, but I think everyone knows.

Most definitely.
Theres no way we will all be equals, regardless of race, ethnicity, income, or anything else. Some people are just worthless, and the world can do without them. I have no sympathy for these types. I think the death penalty is under-used. After someone is in jail 3 or 4 times, lets just off 'em. Obviously they have no intention of becoming a productive member of society, so why should we spend $40K a year of our tax dollars keeping them alive in prison? That money could be spent on education or paying off the debt we already have.
Aside from that, am I the only person who ever acts on instinct? I would have jumped in there, regardless of it being a bad idea (I doubt I can whoop the big dudes ass). Hell, someone could have busted him in the head with a chair or something, it ain't like its a fair fight anyway. Bottom line, it should be instinct to help a fellow person, it shouldn't require bravery or strategy, just do SOMETHING. Anything. Christ, be a man for f**ks sake. I couldn't sleep at night knowing I sat through that and just turned my head. Guilt would eat me alive.

I am only 5'8" and 155# and I would have had no problem getting that guy put down with my bare hands.I didn't spend 6 years in the army learning how to stand and watch,but i did learn some cool techniques for taking a large guy out of commission....permanently.And I would have.
DCEPTCN...I agree we are in need of a little cleansing here in our own back yard.Makes ethnic cleansing make sence.Maybe some of these third world countries have known what they were doing all along when they put it to use.Definitely need some chlorine in the gene pool.

True....the problem is- most of the time it's motivated by religion. Religion twists the truth and would have you believe that that ape was 'god's creation' and had the same right to life as a more intelligent, productive person. The bottom line is, the world's going to hell in a basket and nobody is doing a damn thing about it. MTV has got everybody convinced that as long as you're a gay, crippled, minority, woman, etc. you've got the right to pull **** like this.
Suggested listening for everybody: Meshuggah's 'Future Breed Machine' from the Destroy-Erase-Improve album.
I feel ya, Trav. Sometimes I'm actually not sure if this is a bad time or if we should chill out because -after all- once upon a time people were convinced that Elvis was evil and the Beatles were agents of Satan. Then again, back then they were just fighting for the right to say what was on thier mind......what is MTV fighting for? The right to make millionaires of urban idiots who don't even play an instrument but insist on calling themselves 'musicians' while shooting thier mouths off about selling crack to the beat of an electronic rythym? Listen, I'm a long-haired, tattooed atheist....and even I sometimes wonder where the frig the world is headed. I can't make up my mind any more about who are the biggest jag-offs in current events:the groups of crazy diaperheads who want to randomly kill Americans because they're a bunch of heathens.....or the people who lend credibility to their argument. All I want in this world is the ability to do what I want to do with my life as long as it doesn't hurt anybody else and the ability to raise my kids as I sit fit in a safe world......and I wish all others the same freedom. Why is that so difficult?Originally posted by NJTurbo

Sad you are correct in many ways. I can not even let my kids watch MTV anymore
What happen to the good Ole days of the rocket taking off every hour. The dirtiest thing they use to have on was Jeopardy
Makes sense to me and I am with you. I work in the City and the way people treat each other here is horrible, that video looks like something that would happen here. Sometimes it is hard to go home and be civilized.
There is only one part of you that I disagree on and that my Friend is a entire other deal. We have been there and done that conversation many times over the years. However we are not worlds apart and not much different in our thinking.
I see it in my business, where years ago I would have a clean cut kid come to the dealer looking for work. He would be dressed nice and be respectable and worked hard.
Now I get kids that refuse to work Saturdays, come in with their under-wear showing, no pen, no nothing. Yo... you looking for any help, I say Yo... there is the door have a nice day.

LMAO
I got 3 more years until the Step-Daughter hits college. Then all bets are off
I would rather wait the 3 years then to deal with a 15 year old's drama about going to another State.

That everyone stood around and watched is not surprising. What would have been surprising is if anyone did help. The fact is, in most cases like this, people stand around and watch. It's a known and studied social phenomenon.
It's not that the onlookers are bad, uncaring people. It's just something in the vast majority of people's psychological make-up.
And those of you who posted how you would have done something... guess what?... that's easy to say sitting behind a computer screen but when unexpectedly thrust into the real situation the odds are overwhelming that you would have stood there just like all those folks did. Believe it or not, it's true.

Those guys standing around are just as big a coward as the punk that hit em. Thought he was bad @$$, now hes in jail, whose the bad @$$ now? Feels good to see wastes of life locked up.
I had the same situation happen to me in indiana when visiting a friend down at purdue. On our way back, we stopped at a gas station and a ford pickup pulled up with dents on the side. He got bumped on the side by a taurus with two drunk guys in it. He followed them into the gas station and they got out and started kicking dents in his car. I quickly ran to my trunk to pull out my flip out baton. Unfortunately, they jumped in the car and ran before I could do anything. The cop gets there and asks the guy, hey, do I smell beer. The guys threw beer at his truck while he was driving. cop assumed right away that he was drunk because he was so mad. Thing is, the owner of the truck had a gun under his seat (legally) Not sure why he didnt use it. Supposedly, the two guys in the car were fellow gold glove boxers.
