Oh, because drinking is so much better than smoking pot?

What does that matter? If I'm not mistaken, the black gentleman apologized for striking the old man first.

All the stupid details and bravado he throws onto his story does not change the events that occurred. The black gentleman admitted to starting the physical part of the confrontation.

Thought it seems like they both seem to have selective memory of the events in question...

And another thing, they keep mentioning how big Tom is.... He isn't that big at all. I'm alot bigger than that guy and I don't consider myself big at all.

Who cares,
Every interview the guy who admits to consuming illegal drugs, has a criminal history and is apparantly nuts changes his story every interview.

However...you are right.
The guy who had few too many drinks and took things too far on the bus is obviously worth pointing fingers at because he chooses to be presentable when he's sober and on the radio.

What the fuck asshole?
I'm having a conversation with Rider.
jeez..

Are we judging them on their actions on the bus or their personal lives?

Are you paying attention to this thread?

We are judging them on any angle we can get access to.

He is in Cali.

How do you know his pot isn't legal?

Racist.

Like so many, the black guy gets somewhat stupid when he drinks, Tom is crazy all the time. I thought that it was a decent gesture on the black guy's part to admit fault and to apologize. Tom gets credit no matter what he says or does, I really don't understand it. There are some incredibly racist comments all over the internet calling the black guy a thug, monkey, Coolio, etc. Tom clearly asked that guy how much he'd charge him to shine his shoes, an insult to be sure. The black guy over reacted certainly but what would you expect? Do you think that it's prudent to ask random black people to shine your shoes? Of course not.

Heck, I just like that my "fairytale" story turned out to be somewhat true! AFAIK the black guy has no criminal record, was minding his own business, has no gang affiliations, didn't use a weapon, didn't steal the white guy's stuff, did throw the first blow, isn't a drug addict, was drunk and a bit stupid. Oh and apparently can articulate himself reasonable well when not drunk with a swollen face.:lol:

Pity that we don't have video of what came before the physical altercation started, eh Tigger?
