Bus Driver Assaults Kid (Video)

http://movies.collegehumor.com/media/movies/11888.wmv

my question is what was we thinking? he knew there was a camera on the bus :eek7:

I would have kicked those kids' asses. They deserve some beatings. When the bus driver went back there and the kid came running up behind him swearing the driver felt threatened and did his best to restrain the kid, hopefully he was not fired for it.

yeah i dont know about that, they might have needed a beating, but they could of gotten that from their parents, not the bus driver, i doubt that that big of a guy felt threatened by the skinny little kids.....they look like they were 6th graders, i think he was out of line....but thats my 2 cents

i think that everybody involved was out of line
you've got the kids being little shits, and the bus driver beating the hell out of one of the little shits....i mean yeah the kid diserved it, but that could get a person arrested,fired or both

Damn I dunno...I'm torn here. One side of me is saying this kid needed his ass beat but the other side is saying the bus driver was a out of line. I could see him reacting like that if the kid hit him but well he didn't. I mean he'd already called the popo so he could've just sat there and told them to take the both of them.

More/less in the same spot, but If I was on the jury, I wouldn't convict him.

Kids these days are out of control, they don't understand the consequences of words or even understand the power the wield. I'd say he should be reprimanded, but not fired. The kids were probably harrassing him prior to the start of the video we only saw the part that mad him look bad.

Ever heard the saying 'stick and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me?' Name do hurt people, sure the guy's an adult and this is his job, but no child has any right to use that kind of language, especially the kid who gets up and shouts out the obscenities.

While some may not agreee, IMO there's too many laws protecting children from forms of discpline that are needed. My mother is having the same problem with my sister. My sister, shoudl she care to do so, ca override my mother's authority at any time for any reason and anything my mom does aside from yelling will result in her being the bad guy.

Again, while some may not agree, the few times I was spanked or grabbed by my dad as a kid set me straight, and I never did it again. While it may not work for everyone, and must be used with caution and moderation, sometimes the only way a kid will learn is when they realize they are not in charge of the situation.

Lack of discipline in children is leading to the downfall of society IMHO The thing is though it's hard to find a middle ground between discipline, and choking a kid out. :grinno:

Yeah I think I would've just straight up punched the kid in the face. After..turning off the camera, you can do that right? But I do believe that kids are honestly out of control now and im freaking 16! Every young kid I see from the middle school thats near me, thinks he's a badass. In the video you can see how badly the kids were being assholes when he was like "You're going to jail, boy" Kids really do have too many laws protecting them I say take em all away and put the power back in the parents who know what they're doing....most of the time.

I feel the same way. Kids get out of control because they caught between stages of adulthood (some kids think they're grown) and child/teen behavior. (i can do what i want and not get in trouble because i am a minor.) BOOTCAMP!!!

Funny..I was seeing stuff about this police bootcamp that last for 8 or so weeks and its amazing how its like highschool rotc except they yell at you alot and can send you to jail if you get out of hand.

The bus driver is obviously in the wrong legally, but those kids were little shits and deserve a good fucking beating from someone. Sad state of affairs.

IMO it's up to the parents to discipline their children like that. Others should not beat your child, but they should still be able to discipline them. The kid deserved it though.

I'd have clocked the little shits, all of them that stood up, little bastards.

Silly kids :lol2:

Oh please people. The media is only showing what they want to show you. The full video shows those guys truly harrassing the driver and acting very stupid. The driver did call for assistance. They are lucky that they were not thrown off the bus or worse. Kids these days are not discipline and as for the poster saying thats up to the parents, trust me if the kids are acting like that, they are not being disciplined at home. The parents are letting them do whatever they want. They (the parents) should also be slapped down). I swear parents should go to parenting school.

TS out

:iagree:

There could possibly be too much discipline at home as well. So, out in public when kids are away from their parents they may feel it's alright to go nuts because they don't feel there is anyone there to discipline them and they can just get away with the matter.

It's true, you don't know the whole entire story behind this vid. More than likely though, the kids were being a couple of little shits.

If you noticed when the driver pushed the kid in the white T-shirt back into that seat, he swung at the driver and clocked him in the side of the head. I think that driver reacted better than most would think. Ah, wish I could have seen the entire vid.

that day was probably the last straw for that driver. every day he has to deal with these obnoxious children thinking they're hot shit when really they're not. did that kid even think about how much smaller he was than that driver? parents need to teach their children about respect more so than just discipling them. i know when my bus driver finally got fed up with all the shit some of the girls on my bus were doing he just pulled over and hte side of the road and walked out. he left us there for about 10 minutes, no explanation or anything and when he got back he told those girls exactly what was wrong and guess what, he never had a problem with them again. *the girls kept screaming as loud as they could* the driver prolly shouldn't have hit the kid, but how many of us could stay totally calm after dealing with that for months and months and being provoked like that? that driver shouldn't lose his job and the kids need a serious talk about appropriate behavior.

The parents should be fined, and sent to some school where they can learn to properly raise their children, the children should be suspended, and the bus driver should get an award of some sort. TS is right, the full video is different. Now dont get me wrong, i like children, but my kids will not behave like that, no way in hell, they would get disciplined one way or another.

My computer teacher (which im typing this in his class) saw the video and said that its funny how a bus driver got up and beat the crap of some kids.

I thought it was funny too.

^ Pretty good!

the kids going,"try me, try me and I'll knock you out", and yet he just got stangled by the driver and would have been beaten into submission if it wasnt for the driver knowing that he would go to jail if he did that. Little pukes

Yeah, the kid felt all big after the bus driver got his hand off him. You can tell he's all shaking from excitement and if the bus driver even did a quick move the kid would have crumbled back.

This is all being brought upon by this new form of harsh discipline called the "TIME OUT' (SARCASM) I see parents using this bullshit of if you hit them again you get 5 mins time out. So of course the little fuck will hit the kid, whats 5 mins gonna hurt. Obviously they pretend its a big deal to sit out for 5. Child abuse laws need to be slackened, I mean if a kid gets swatted on the ass for being a jerk they can just call the police and report child abuse, its rediculous. Schools should be able to use the paddle again as well I think.

well my two cents here is that if the kids were being that bad then he should have either stopped called for help and WAITED for the help. or turned around and gone back to the school like the bus drivers are trained to do.

As far as I can tell from that video, the driver was heading back to beat a different kid and the bigger kid stepped up to protect him and got his ass beat (excesively) in return for it.

I don't care how bad those kids were being, they did not deserve to have their necks throttled by a larger older man, or have their faced pushed into windows etc. That is not the place of the driver. I say the driver was way out of line and deserves everything he gets. He seriously needs some self restraint.




I do like the kid in the blue at the end though "you're in big trouble. let me off this bus and get the ploice here now" haha, its good to see a young kid who is not afraid to stand up to corrupt older people.

i sincerely hope the bus driver didn't get prosecuted for this. I've seen some bus drivers having to put up with some BAD BAD shit. Those kids were being hueg bitches and they deserved that shit. All acting tough in junior high. Does somebody have a link to the full vid?

What beating and assault? From what I saw, the bus driver just grabbed some kid and restrained him.

Oh, and every single kid on that bus looks like a douche.

hmm... he did kinda smack him round the side of the head :grinno:

As a child the thought of calling the police after my dad spanked me (for being a little shit) never crossed my mind. I do bleave that parents have the right to disipline(not abuse) children. But that is a fine line and must be handeled with KID gloves. :grinyes:

All i know is that if any kid of mine called the cops on me for spanking him/her I dont think i would want that shit bag living in my house

I do like the kid in the blue at the end though "you're in big trouble. let me off this bus and get the ploice here now" haha, its good to see a young kid who is not afraid to stand up to corrupt older people.

Ya, it is always good to see a little scumbag totally disrespect his elders. :rolleyes:I can't wait till the little puke comes across someone with less restraint than the bus driver and smears his face into the concrete.

^^^
Seriously.
Our bus drivers sometimes gets pissed but i doubt he would have the grapefruits to hit anyone cause he knows the whole bus will beat him up. LOL. But we don't disrespect him like that. We just stand up sometimes lol. (btw i'm in HS)

LOL, i love how the kid gets up and says "HEY MOTHER FUCKER!" and 3 seconds later its "HEY GET OFF ME!!!!" I laughed so hard. But those kids deserved a good paddle like the good ole days :)

glad i wasnt around then :)

I still think its funny how calm the bus driver was and how excited the kid was, he's all breathing hard and everything.

those boys don't seem to have much respect I'll give you that much

they're the typical "think they own the world" types. did you see that one guy say he was going to knock the drivers lights out or something? hahaha! one slap from the driver and he could knock that twiggy boys block off. but anyways yeah too bad it ain't the good ol days where the parents in that situation would be like "yeah spank the boy if he's bein bad". heck I was spanked at school, I know I needed it. Now they side with the kids in attempt to sue and get money out of it like greedy people and forgo raising kids with respect.

Kids were out of line, yet the bus driver too. They should have been obeying the driver because he's the one who's in charge and the one they have to obey because he makes the rules. Also he is responsible for the kids' saftey form the minute they get on the bus until the minute they get off. However, the driver shouldn't have reacted in that fashion. The driver is supposed to control the kids without physical contact and the kids are supposed to obey. He shouldn't have grabbed the kid and started beating on him. All he should've sone was either kick the kid off, or just report him and keep the bus on the side of the road until back up arrived; also, noone gets on or off. It may seem that in the way the kids reacted towards the driver before the brawl, the kids do deserve a beating, but not in a physical sense. They deserve disciplinary action, not a physical beating. To physically discipline someone really has no effect and it's just morally wrong. The bus driver also has a temper problem and therefore should either be fired or suspended for not following proper procedure.

I know it may seem as if I am trying to argue, but its totally not the case, just giving my opinion so bare with me. I do not thinkg physically disciplining someone has no effects, i was hit when I was a dumbass and I never did what ever it was again. I don't feel it morally wrong either, a swat on the ass deffinately aint gonna kill you.

Oh yea, I was too. but I forgot to clarify, that that situation is on a pubilc and municipal basis. Yea, I guess physical discipline has some effects but, in your situation it was private. In this situation, it's in public or on a municipal basis because the driver is a public and municipal worker. He has no right to physically discipline someone like that. Get my drift? It maybe alright if his parents did that but not a public worker.

If it wasn't a country of litigation and lawsuits, people would have the crap beaten out of them on a regular basis. Shit, i wish my word was law sometimes, because at taht point i'd rule that the bus driver gets a $20k/yr raise and the kids get expelled from the bus forever. Same with kids givig shit to their teachers. There will always be the ones with big balls, but it's out of hand these days. Kids are too protected from punishment. Now being 21 I have to restrain myself from slapping the local highschool brats because the consequences aren't worth it.

Damn coffee is good stuff

Ok, well lemme tell you a story then that happened during my 8th grade year. On my bus a couple of ppl were being jags and the bus driver, a female late 50's, told them to knock it off or she would pull the bus over. Well of course on kid, Adam, decided to tell her to fuck off. so she comes back ther and tells him she is writing him up. Well Adam decides To punch her a few times and breaks the bus drivers nose. All Adam got was a week of out of school suspension. While Donna, our bus driver got nothing, no justice or anything. I think she should have used public discipline there. Now you kinda see where I am coming from in my thoughts about the kids in the movie. I know how stuff escalates and personally think some physical punishment needs to be brought back today

Look at how the man grabbed the kid in the video, I just don't think he has the right to do that and I don't think it's proper procedure. The man is in noot in any way related to the kid. He shouldn't be grabbing the kid like that, grabbing the kid like that. He doesn't have the right to...

True me might not have the right to, but at times it get a person pushed over the edge that they can't take it anymore. They are lucky I wasn't the driver. Not only would I samck that kid and thrown his puny little punk ass off my bus, but I would go visit their parents and smack the living shit out of them as well for being asholes as well. yeah I know I'll probably lose my job, but fuck it.

TS out

Hey, I understand all your points but I simply just don't agree. Sorry but lol, we all have different opinions. The way I see it, when you are hired for a job, you have responsibilities obviously. And I think the proper way to handle this is to follow proper procedure while maintaining professional courtesy. Regardless if the situation aggravates you, you're supposed to uphold your job's responsibility the right way without your emotions affecting it. Get my drift? What I'm trying to say is...well, ill give an example. I play Counter-Strike 1.6 and I am am admin for a server. My job and responsibility is to moderate the server so it's fun for everyone. for example, I kick team killers, racists, cheaters, ones who don't follow the rules and then ban them after they refuse to follow the rules. While i'm playing, there are times when I do really well and kill literally the whole opposite team, but there are also times when I do horribly like instead of 24 kills and 2 deaths, like 7 kills and 11 deaths. I get pissed off at the people who kill me and it makes me want to kick and ban everyone of them just to make me feel better. But there's that, i dont think courtesy is the right word, but there's that border that stops me from doing it. I can't kick and ban them for no reason and kicking and banning them jsut because they pisssed me off isn't a good reason at all. I also remember that I have a responsibility that I have to uphold and I'm not there to kick and ban everyone that kills me, I'm there to moderate the clan and kick and ban only those who refuse to abide to the rules. Get my drift? Despite your emotions, your supposed to uphold your responsbilty while following proper procedure. Get what I mean? That's the way I think. The driver should've just reported it and let the disciplining be taken care of by the school and his parents. He is not the one to judge how the kid acts and how disciplined he is. That's up to the parents. If the parents aren't good at disciplining their kid, then tough luck. It's the real world and they're not prepared for it. It's there fault. If the parents try as hard as they can to discipline their kids and it still doesn't go right, then tough luck. They neeed to learn themselves. So I hope you all understand where I'm coming from, and if you have any questions just ask.

Yes, but see Counterstrike is a game, this is real life. You know that the ppl that kill you are just having fun, no harm inteded towards you where as the kids do intend to inflict harm. From what I saw the driver didn't even really grab the kid that hard, i have been grabbed by a teacher like that before, its not as bad as the video makes it out to be.

I know counter-strike is a game but it's just a comparison to real life. When you are to uphold responsibilities in your career, your supposed to without emotion effecting it, regardless of the game thing. I'm not basing this on a game, I'm just comparing.

It's a poor comparison, and here's me invalidating your argument.

Everyone has their limit, deal with it.

that was hilarious...:lol:

OK, I'll put it this way. You had a crummy day before because your girlfriend left you or something. You're a school teacher and all these kids are being obnoxious to you and one keeps ruining your classroom and even, screaming bad words and calling you names and not abiding to the rules. You grab the kid by the neck and assault him similarly like the guy did in the bus just because he was aggravating you instead of taking him to the principals. Make sense? I don't think so, I think it would end up with you packin your things. And when other jobs see that you have an attitude like that I don;t think they'll be very open in hiring you.

If you have that kind of attitude like that guy on the bus I don't think you're going to get very far. Yes, I know people have their limit but all I am saying is when people act like that then they're not going to get very far, they're not job worthy. The point I'm trying to get is regardless of something in your job is aggravating you, you have to cope with it or be prepared to live in the slum of a city for the rest of your life. YOu have a responsibility to hold when you have a job and letting personal anger or your temper get in the way of it isn't very good and you're supposed to have that limit before you explode out of aggravation to remenber, oh I have a job and responsibility to up hold, if I break out in anger, I wouldn't be in such a good situation. That's why I was comparing my responsibility as a server admin-I get pissed, but if I ban and kick people then I'll lose my oppurtunity to have the power to moderate the server and it'll make me look pathetic and stupid. It's a similar concept here. You're mods and have certain admin powers because your responsibility is to moderate this forum. It wouldn't make much sense if you banned someone here out of personal anger would it? It would look stupid and pathetic right?


Hey 93100zxtt, I understand you point, physical discipline has its effects. I said this before: The driver should've just reported it and let the disciplining be taken care of by the school and his parents. He is not the one to judge how the kid acts and how disciplined he is. That's up to the parents. If the parents aren't good at disciplining their kid, then tough luck. It's the real world and they're not prepared for it. It's there fault. If the parents try as hard as they can to discipline their kids and it still doesn't go right, then tough luck. They neeed to learn themselves.

I'm not here to change your opinions, I just want you to understand mine, and where I'm coming from. I talked to someone here about this and I said the same exact stuff and they couldn't agree with me more. He also said it's hard because people can't help it, yes I understand. But when it comes to more important things like a job, it's more important to be able to control your anger in order to keep your job.

i must say im with TS on this one...

Well RHK, I understand your point.

That video was too hilarious not to post though.

yea lol. That kinda lightened me up on this thread, thanks lol. A distant friend of mine, I was playing against at my friends house on his new Alienware Area 51 and, and lemme tell ya, he has one bad temper. I owned him, like 22 kills 0 deaths one on one and on that 22nd kill he took his area 51 laptop, threw it across the room against the wall, breaking the screen from the rest of the laptop. He wasn't happy, and neither where the parants. Left a 3 foot hole in the wall. :lol:
