I Am a Motherfucker!

I was just made aware of these videos that were taken of events from a couple of days ago. Check out this fight on a bus! Oh yeah, my title comes from the back of the guy's shirt.




Now check out this guy's response which is equally funny and satisfying in that I expected the guy to claim racism and instead, mentioned that the guy got what he deserved...





And now, because we live on the internet, the Mortal Kombat version!

Oh man, the social commentary is busting at the seams... Without analyzing everything second by second, my most immediate thoughts/observations:

1) Why do we live in a day and age where people feel the need to videotape things like this?
2) Kudos to the white guy for walking away.
3) Why did the videotaper take the white guy's bag?

How do you find this stuff? People videotaping stuff like this are in it just as she said - to sue someone--anyone! I liked how after he was all beat up and bloody, he was still saying he was going to get him! The second video is a surprise but I love the third! Great entertainment!

People will just about anything for a few minutes of fame.. The last one is pretty good!

I am torn between the "freak factor" and the "who cares?" factor. On the one hand, I want to gawk at this as though it were a train wreck. On the other hand, my life is no different after having watched it. Like Jess, I'm perplexed by the voyeuristic nature of our society, though I would guess that everyone brandishing a cell phone camera in situations like these are hoping their recording becomes the next viral video. Perhaps the answer is simpler than that: People record things like this because other people want to see things like this.
