What kind of society churns out this scum... How do the people around not even go to help, the guy filming thinks it's funny.. how broken is he? I've not long got back from Ohio (visiting family) and the bad parts of the country seem to have got worse. Of course, the well off parts remain a great example of "the American dream" Do our American Eagles see the country struggling, or is it just me?

It's no different from the guy assaulting an old Asian man on the bus in north London and throwing his walker of the bus. No matter where you go in the world there are knobheads! This isn't the problem with America, look at any of the hundreds of threads on racism, police brutality or gun crime, those are the issues that are beyond repair and that's what's broken with America. One smack head thug in a park isn't the issue I can name 4 of him in my local park in Turnpike Lane.

Nothing, however, is beyond repair.

Happens here too, most of the homeless have experienced unprovoked violence from people, especially drunk young males. Bully's have always focused on taking their insecurities out on people weaker than themselves. The police rarely do anything and bystanders won't intervene to help the homeless very often. Generally, its 'a laugh' to annoy, abuse or attack a member of the homeless. About 10-15 years ago there was a spate of tramp burnings in the UK, in which young men poured fuel on homeless people and set them alight. Being homeless massively increases the chances of experiencing violence, physical mental and sexual abuse, rape and being murdered (especially if your unlucky enough to be a homeless woman).

Thankfully people are so stupid that they do the job for the police by taking a video of their crime and then posting it online.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses. |

In that video, no-one seemed to react, almost like it's a daily event.

Nothing, however, is beyond repair. It's called 'Ghetto Scum mentality" where (& including the UK) you have an poor underclass who are more interested in sneakers, rap and all that other s*** associated with the shall we say less savoury side of social media.

Scum like that always seem to do things when they know they can get away with it. I would have knocked the little s*** into next week like most other fellas would.

He posted from the perspective as someone who lived there. The gun point is fair, as several countries have high gun ownership but without the relentless death count so essentially it is a symptom of the culture. He acknowledged that are complex reasons why. Not everything can be explained in a soundbite or an easy answer. If you don't like his perfectly reasonable post wouldn't it be better to move on rather than angering yourself and swearing at people? Edited by oldcodger (21 Oct 2015 12.07am)

Forget about them, don't you know there are Syrians to look after.
