Male bus driver uppercuts female passenger on tape

If people would raise their children properly, stuff like this would not occur as frequently. Talk poo just ignore it!

He should be fired for defending himself? Charges for defending himself? I'd have done the same thing. People get this dumb misconception that just because it's a female you can fight back.

A woman swingin' on me..she's going to get the same treatment as anyone else. It may not be the "popular" thing...but I'll be John Denver if I let someone hit on me just because they're of the opposite sex.

+1 for the bus driver. They have to put up with trash like this on a daily basis.

I don't consider this case to be self-defense. The woman certainly took a cheap shot on the bus driver but then she backed away. She didn't back him into a corner, she didn't pummel him. After the cheap shot the bus driver should've just called the police.

This differs from a another video that was posted here of a McDonald's associate who beat a woman with a rod. I supported that McDonald's worker because the woman backed the worker into a corner.

Self-defense can be complicated, though. But that bus driver seemed to enjoy that upper cut a bit too much.

Yeah the bus driver didn't appear to be in a situation where his life was in danger since he had to approach the girl to hit her, but I got 5 minutes of laughs out of the video, so I'm okay with it.

He punched her ass into an alternate reality. Now she's all classy, riding in limos and has long natural hair

A person should not ignore being spit on! There's no telling what kind of diseases this thugette was carrying. I would have handled this situation differently, hitting women is not something that I advocate. However, she got the results that she was looking for.

Equal rights often lead to equal lefts!

This. X 1000

I don't hit girls but this made me laugh. Sue me

Sometimes you get exactly what you ask for...

I do think his reaction was a bit excessive but two points:

1) We can't completely see or know what she did to him prior to him getting up.

2) Put yourself in his shoes as a "bus driver." Those dudes sit in that seat all day driving and come across numerous crazy and mentally unstable people. If she's standing over him, cornering him in that seat, and threatening him, I'd imagine he felt trapped.

If he felt trapped then I can understand him making an irrational choice, which was what happened. I can understand at worst, grabbing her by the arm and removing her from the bus, but I don't necessarily condone hitting her.

I've always been of the mind that you never hit a woman, ironically, I have said in the past that if a woman started acting crazy and "acted like a man, she'd get treated like one."

As an adult, I've had a female family member punch me (not in the face) in an altercation as well as a girlfriend once, and I didn't swing on them.

All of that being said, I'm interested to see at which boxing gym he trained at and how long he had been on the job, lol. I don't recall there being a bus driver character on Street Fighter.

Here is the thing...was the bus moving? I mean, if the bus is moving, with passengers, and say she attacks him or does something to get his eyes off the road, he wrecks due to her, and people get injured or worse, die. I think you get up and literally throw her ass off. Would I uppercut her? No. That's silly.

Left hook.

If you watch the full version, it's nearly 4 minutes long, and it does start while the bus is moving... She doesn't hit him until after he stops, but she starts on him while he's driving...

[FurdTurgason]

We don't know what led up to this. Maybe she screamed at him every day for several days or even weeks on end and this was the proverbial straw. Maybe he did something to her to merit her reaction to him early in the tape. I don't know and I refuse to judge these people based on a small window into their lives. But I relish the opportunity to see someone spouting off and getting clocked in response. Just something funny about that.

Suspension with pay. That's all he deserves

All the same I bet his bus becomes the safest bus in the city.
