Interview with tha thug

He apologizes for striking first, but it seems very likely that the EBM was racist to provoke the whole thing. If you watch several of EBM's interviews, he gives a very different story in each one. In this one, he doesn't even mention about going to a funeral which is clearly in the original.

This story has gotten pretty disappointing. The "thug" is seemingly a nice guy (and 50-years-old) and the 67-year-old man is a certified loon.

It's been pretty clear from the start that EBM is pretty crazy and exaggerates or makes things up. But I think his account of the incident was pretty accurate aside from the fact that he seems to say things happened three times for emphasis (i.e. he said the guy hit him three times in the face, he said his mother died from "three complications of cancer surgery," and I think there was at least one other time he said something happened three times).

Though if EBM was racist then spidey07 would have to STFU about this guy being "our Rosa Parks," that's just embarrassing to white people.
 
Not trying to defend anyone but at the beginning it sounded like the old dude was asking/telling the black guy to spit shine his shoes. Did I hear that incorrectly? If I was told to spit shine someone's shoe I'd be upset at him too. That being said, he got his ass handed.

He looks like the kind of guy, who if he were 30 or 40 you would think he had a rough life and aged bad. But for 50, if he cut his hair and didn't wear gangsta wear I think he'd look about right or at best a little young for his age.
 
Yes EBM = Crazy, loony, insane veteran storyteller, but he did walk away which = sensible.

Ambathug = Drunk, stubborn, provocative idiot who threw the first punch to start the fight.

you (we) missed the part before that as the video starts midway through the conversation.

apparently african american guy is bilingual. he speaks ebonics on the bus and english on the radio show.
and i like how he claims he was intoxicated, perhaps as a way to justify his behavior. but i think he's using it as an excuse as to why he got his ass beat.

and why didn't the radio show host call him out on all the racist slurs he used?
 
Was anyone able to find EBM's 'friend' on the bus? If he was there, he sure didn't do anything. I don't even think he exists. Also, the EBM lies a lot. But the black guy was out of line and deserved that punch to the face.

Better than your hero, who one could argue was as mentally disturbed as EBM.

I dunno where you got that Uncle Joe was my hero
 
Amba lamps is a fucking bitch. He's trying to play the I was drunk card because he's too embarassed to admit he just got beat down by an old man. If you're gonna put your hands on someone be ready for a fight. Amba lamps softly pushed him and was expecting the old man to cower down.
 
As innocent as the drunk fuck trys to play himself of....

You probably shouldn't lay hands on someone twice your size while intoxicated.
 
Took one hit then went down, he was drunk off his ass and probably off a pill.

The black guy simply doesn't look like a fighter. His small size (not just his color) is what made him a target. I'd of jumped into that fight on my own accord for the brother, so drunk he couldn't even fight!

Had that black man been 6'2 200+ pounds he'd of probably ended up in jail on assault charge's. And yes, that black man is *AT LEAST* forty years old, he has that fountain of youth look that's all.
