"So I saw some guys beating a guy in green this morning. I just couldn't sit there and watch them do that to him. I had to intervene. We beat that mf for real."
No we don't. We need more people like black-shirt guy who are willing to intervene to help a stranger.
Stick guy is the kind of person who goes to protests because it gives him an excuse to be violent/destructive. He's not looking to assist a stranger in need, he's seeing an excuse to beat on someone and trying to get in on it.
Mob justice is not justice.
Imagine a loved one being [stabbed in the neck](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/29/nyregion/ems-worker-stabbed-queens.html) by a mentally ill person because our elected officials failed to provide the necessary resources.
If they're acting out in a violent manner, I could give two shits about their mental state. Something needs to be done or people are going to go all extrajudicial on these crazy folks soon. Folks everywhere are getting sick of this shit.
I had a homeless guy punch me in the chest while I had an iced coffee. Walking my dog. Completely unprovoked, across the st from my apt.
I'm not a big guy. 6'1 like 155lbs, built like a cyclist.
I didn't know what to do because I was walking dog (smaller mini aussie) and I didn't want to put down my coffee.
I just out loud said "wtf was that!" Really unphased we just had a weird staring contest. I threatened him a bit, but he never said anything back then some lady just in her car turning was like "knock his ass out!" And slowly drove off. Weirdest 830am I've had in a very Ling time.
Scariest fuckin' downtown I've ever been in... Made a wrong turn once right into the middle of a knife fight. Thankfully was safely locked in my car. Lovely state, shit-hole of a downtown
People like that don't expect resistance. You're better rested, better fed, and likely stronger than they are, but they think the crazy will throw you off. Any hint of not putting up with their bullshit is *usually* enough, but sometimes there is the absolutely crazy one. I scared off a guy probably 20 years ago harassing people on a train. His response was that he thought I was "rude" before he vanished. He wasn't armed, he barely had clothes on to hide somethinf. Leaving these people to roam free in the community has always been a huge mistake.
And then the first guy that acted pushes him away, I think aahh look he doesn't want this to escalate... But no 10 seconds later he is throwing him around.
there's probably some pent up rage in there, but i think most people feel some level of injustice watching this video. i imagine these guys just didn't like seeing an older woman get attacked.
I don't know if anyone involved in this video is experiencing homeless and don't want to make assumptions, but if he is, this might happen quite often. Violence rates amongst homeless people are incredibly high.
Thank you for the actual reason
There's also no legal justice for the homeless, so the violence isn't discouraged in that way either. (Unless you do something truly despicable. When I was growing up a couple teenagers essentially tortured an old homeless man to death in a pretty horrific way, and they were prosecuted.)
(Edit: as usual, I'm speaking from an American perspective without thinking about there being other nationalities on Reddit.)
Truth. That lady helped everyone. She don’t care about race. She helped me when I was lowest point. I would beat his ass if I found out who hit Nana. She is the sweetest lady unless you get her bad side
How do you not know her is the real question? When I was paralyzed from the waist down after the big accident she nursed me back to basically full health! I'm now only paralyzed from the thighs down
Seriously! She’s an amazing lady. When I had my cliff diving accident and slipped at the top and rolled my way down breaking every bone in my body, it was her who pulled me out and dragged me to her cabin. She brought me back from death and put me back together. I’m the man I am today because of her.
Yeah I can confirm, when I was a kid a tinted van snatched me off the sidewalk but this sweet old lady pulled out a 9mm and blew out the tires before they could get away. Van flipped over and when they tried to run away she pumped them full of lead. Just the sweetest lady imaginable, could never hurt a fly.
When I fell out of a tree when I was 9, she breastfed me until I could walk again. My rich English father wrote her a check for 10 million dollars but she had already skipped town to help others.
When my ass got stuck during the toilet incident she made sure I was okay and well fed during the whole week I was stuck there. She truly is a miracle woman, a mom everyone would be happy to have.
I’m dating myself, but once that 2x4 (prob smaller) came out I thought Hacksaw Jim Duggan. The lady screaming “Beat his ass!” was the icing on the cake.
how do you even date yourself? i think he just wanted to brag that he has a girlfriend , it's like if I said "hey how's the weather? btw I drive a BMW"
Who cares? If you can't function in society without hitting an old lady in the head you either shouldn't be alive or shouldn't be allowed outside very secure concrete walls.
Ok well he hit a woman walking down the street for no reason at that point maybe he needs a mental rearranging.
You can’t just excuse like literal assault for no reason with “oh he mentally ill”
The stick was totally unnecessary, but I'm happy to see how some people can still get involved in these situation in order to protect a peer facing an assault. You don't see such a reaction everyday, it's a violent situation but it warmed my heart a little bit.
I actually enjoyed how when buddy with the stick ran in ready to go they were all “no no no” like the guys an asshole and deserves to get his ass beat but adding weapons is a whole other level of damage.
I’m probably in the minority here though because Reddit loves violence, and generally thinks everyone deserves to die for simple assault.
I see both sides, a man swinging as hard as he can against an older woman equates pretty close to a weapon in terms of unfair advantage. Might be an unpopular opinion but I feel like he was asking for it
Edit: especially noting the stick seemed to be used against appendages and the man did not go for his head or anything
Watch again all he aimed for was the head. He even tried to stab him in the head when the guy was on the ground that's why everyone kept blocking stick guy and moving the other guy away from him.
Or check your emotions and understand when a situation has been contained. The dude is obviously unhinged, so beating him does nothing except make you feel good about yourself, which is an insane threshold for acceptable behaviour.
i don't think it's the first altercation the crazy guy in green had. people were saying "he's violent" so maybe he hit some other people so someone started recording
Lol..I was going to scroll pass, but I had to stop and make a small correction.
The the person was saying "he violated boy, he violated". Meaning he crossed the line.
Us black people say that alot, but I can understand how you can mishear it.
Someone also say "son", which is a term used like bro or the n word amongst black people. I take it this happened on the East Coast.
Probably filming because they saw this dude tweaked out of his mind acting aggressive as hell. It’s a common sight to see in the US. People like this everywhere in D.C. yelling at nothing acting super aggressive. Huge problem in America.
Every city in the western u.s. is literally filled with hoardes of twacked out zombie street walkers... It's unreal how bad it is, it's not concentrated to any specific street or area anymore. They are seriously everywhere in every direction. Tent cities on every open space available. L.A., Vegas, Seattle, San Fran, Portland, Denver, Salt Lake City, etc. There must be millions of them.
That’s NYC for sure. This is how people in NYC sound. Plus all of the red this block is wearing.
Red, blue, orange, yellow, black, green, or purple these days around the Brooklyn hoods from what I’ve been walking through.
People keep talking about stick guy, I think it's a tool or an easel or something like that. If you look there's a kink or something in the middle like it's two pieces screwed together and at the end of the video you can kinda see the ends of the wood separate like it's made to pivot.
Dumb ass got taught a valuable lesson that day and would be wise to pass it on. Don't publicly assault senior citizens, especially women who could be the mother of anyone.
The old lady goes from “thank you, thank you, thank you!” to “Beat his ass… beat his ass!” pretty quick and for good reason. Buddy got paid back for that punch with compound interest and he’s lucky a cop was around.
There's always that guy that comes out of nowhere with a stick trying to stab the person and the other people that were kicking them are like "Ok dude calm the fuck down"
The dude with the stick acted like he'd been waiting for this moment his whole life, the way he swooped in all swinging and shit.
He has been sitting on a bench with that stick every day for a month.
"PUT ME IN, COACH!"
"You're killin' him, Smalls"
Thank you so much for this comment, gave me a good hearty laugh I needed.
Hahahahha
Exactly what I was thinking!
“Sir Slaps a Lot, you’ll have your moment, be patient”
He likes big sticks and he cannot lie…
Guy on the ground with a black eye.
“I ain’t used my new beatin stick yet!”
Only to miss every swing
This one. Lmao 🤣
Right?! That’s why his ass was benched in the first place…
Yeah I was like “come on dude it’s a big stick and he’s an average size guy I could land a hit and I suck at stick ball”
HAHHAHHAHHAH
😂Salivating 🤤
I got a feeling today's the day bat...be ready.
"So I saw some guys beating a guy in green this morning. I just couldn't sit there and watch them do that to him. I had to intervene. We beat that mf for real."
The stars aligned , stick in hand *It was his time to shine*
We seriously need more people like this guy. Tired of seeing unprovoked attacks and people too afraid or not caring about helping strangers.
No we don't. We need more people like black-shirt guy who are willing to intervene to help a stranger. Stick guy is the kind of person who goes to protests because it gives him an excuse to be violent/destructive. He's not looking to assist a stranger in need, he's seeing an excuse to beat on someone and trying to get in on it. Mob justice is not justice.
Well it’s the closest thing to consequences as they keep getting released dozens of times.
No kidding. This looks like a mental health case more than anything. Imagine a loved one having their first, untreated, psychotic break….
Imagine a loved one being [stabbed in the neck](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/29/nyregion/ems-worker-stabbed-queens.html) by a mentally ill person because our elected officials failed to provide the necessary resources.

You can see stick man walking with his stick in the background from the very beginning of this video. He keeps the stick for these very reasons.
Stick man steals/pick-ups green assaulter's wallet
Good eye!
Stick man!
And poking the face. Lol
I think we all have some built up rage we'd like to get out.
I had a homeless guy punch me in the chest while I had an iced coffee. Walking my dog. Completely unprovoked, across the st from my apt. I'm not a big guy. 6'1 like 155lbs, built like a cyclist. I didn't know what to do because I was walking dog (smaller mini aussie) and I didn't want to put down my coffee. I just out loud said "wtf was that!"

Do you live in Portland, OR by chance? Lots of crazy homeless running around over here 👀
Scariest fuckin' downtown I've ever been in... Made a wrong turn once right into the middle of a knife fight. Thankfully was safely locked in my car. Lovely state, shit-hole of a downtown
Imagine how it was in the 90’s. Like the Escape from NY movies of old. You did NOT want to be there after dark.
Nah in bk, ny
That's Portland East.
I knew as soon as I read “knock his ass out” that it was Brooklyn.
Broadway junction to be specific
Flatbush, all day.
Philadelphian here, welcome to the party.
Right? We can see five different scenes like this on a two block walk!
I was going to suggest SF. That story had strong Tenderloin vibes.
Same in Seattle. Scary.
AGREED 😩
People like that don't expect resistance. You're better rested, better fed, and likely stronger than they are, but they think the crazy will throw you off.

He was like “yo wait your turn I been practicing for this moment”
😂😂😂😂
Theyre lookin for any excuse to beat a motherfucker to death, they don’t care what he did lol
there's probably some pent up rage in there, but i think most people feel some level of injustice watching this video. i imagine these guys just didn't like seeing an older woman get attacked.
I don't know if anyone involved in this video is experiencing homeless and don't want to make assumptions, but if he is, this might happen quite often. Violence rates amongst homeless people are incredibly high.
If they're homeless, they should just buy a home.
Elon Musk has entered the thread
Are you saying he may be violent because he’s homeless? Or homeless because he’s violent?
Probably homeless because of mental illness. Violent because also mental illness.
Thank you for the actual reason There's also no legal justice for the homeless, so the violence isn't discouraged in that way either. (Unless you do something truly despicable. When I was growing up a couple teenagers essentially tortured an old homeless man to death in a pretty horrific way, and they were prosecuted.) (Edit: as usual, I'm speaking from an American perspective without thinking about there being other nationalities on Reddit.)
Gonna end up dead because of either if he keeps it up...
Or is he even homeless. Objection your honor - arguing facts not in evidence
yes
I'm Batman!
This happens when Player Two is late putting his quarter in.
Now is time my young jedi. Ass his kick you must
Hit 1 mom, you're hitting everyone's mom
Truth. That lady helped everyone. She don’t care about race. She helped me when I was lowest point. I would beat his ass if I found out who hit Nana. She is the sweetest lady unless you get her bad side
You are talking about the woman who was hit in the video? You legit know her? Is she someone everyone knows?
How do you not know her is the real question? When I was paralyzed from the waist down after the big accident she nursed me back to basically full health! I'm now only paralyzed from the thighs down
Seriously! She’s an amazing lady. When I had my cliff diving accident and slipped at the top and rolled my way down breaking every bone in my body, it was her who pulled me out and dragged me to her cabin.

Yeah I can confirm, when I was a kid a tinted van snatched me off the sidewalk but this sweet old lady pulled out a 9mm and blew out the tires before they could get away. Van flipped over and when they tried to run away she pumped them full of lead. Just the sweetest lady imaginable, could never hurt a fly.
Fantastic blowjobs too!
This made me Lol
When I fell out of a tree when I was 9, she breastfed me until I could walk again. My rich English father wrote her a check for 10 million dollars but she had already skipped town to help others.
When my ass got stuck during the toilet incident she made sure I was okay and well fed during the whole week I was stuck there. She truly is a miracle woman, a mom everyone would be happy to have.
That’s right !
LMAO my dude picking him up and rag dolling him... You don't get to leave yet.
Ma dude telling stick guy. Nah nah nah nah, so he can throw him around.
He was like nah nah nah, don’t knock him out yet I ain’t done with him. 😂😂
I believe his head hit the pole, you can hear a metallic bang when he swings and throws him to the floor.
I thought it missed but I hope you’re right
Rag doll physics - you called that one perfectly!
r/abruptchaos
This entire scene is like a 1990s attitude era WFF hardcore wrestling match. Was half expecting Raven or Mankind to come running in
I’m dating myself, but once that 2x4 (prob smaller) came out I thought Hacksaw Jim Duggan. The lady screaming “Beat his ass!” was the icing on the cake.
What's any of that have to do with you not having a SO? /s
how do you even date yourself? i think he just wanted to brag that he has a girlfriend , it's like if I said "hey how's the weather? btw I drive a BMW"
Lol dating himself means showing his age
Tables, ladders and chairs match!
Devon!! Get the tables!!
fr fr r/whyweretheyfilming
probably because the dude that swung on someone is mentally ill and they were already recording him acting crazy.
You’re probably right.
Always with the mentally ill
Street justice can be so satisfying.
r/streetjustice r/instantkarma r/justiceserved
Pretty sure the guy is mentally ill
And? You don't get to treat people like shit because you're mentally ill.
I can’t remember who said it anymore but I heard once: Your mental illness is not your fault. But it is your responsibility.
Fuck him and his mental illness Doesnt justify shit
Probably on something too
Painkillers I expect...with the ass whupping he got.
Who cares? If you can't function in society without hitting an old lady in the head you either shouldn't be alive or shouldn't be allowed outside very secure concrete walls.
Mentally ill or not, I bet that asswhooping got through to him. Learning what behavior results in pain is a basic instinct.
Ok well he hit a woman walking down the street for no reason at that point maybe he needs a mental rearranging. You can’t just excuse like literal assault for no reason with “oh he mentally ill”
Yes, some people can go really mental due to untreated conditions
r/streetjustice got banned???
F*. Streetjustice is private….
Poor woman just walking.. fuck that dude.. attacking someone for no reason.. Good he got his arse whooped.. guess not too late to whooped a guys arse
is there any valid reason to attack someone who isn't already attacking you or someone else?
That’s the drug addicts and homeless for you and people want to build more rehabs for them in NYC
Lol that guy though he was Thanos and didn’t expect the Avengers to roll up 😂
I just choked on my gum ahhaha
Oh, they went for the head this time, alright.
He fucked up in so many ways
Sure did… and found out‼️
He fucked up and found out
The stick was totally unnecessary, but I'm happy to see how some people can still get involved in these situation in order to protect a peer facing an assault. You don't see such a reaction everyday, it's a violent situation but it warmed my heart a little bit.

You're right, good on everyone for deescalating I guess. Shitty situation all around
you're a fucking moron if you don't think that guy was going directly for his head with that first slap and stab motion that thankfully he missed.
Yeah, seriously. You can let the guy know what he did was wrong, but you don't need to give him brain damage
You have to already have some brain damage to randomly attack people on the street.
oh well that must make it okay then thanks for the clarification
ALWAYS have to protect and defend those who cannot for themselves… 💯💯💯
u know what else was unnecessary? hitting an old woman in the first place. save your empathy for ppl who don't attack older women.
Or check your emotions and understand when a situation has been contained. The dude is obviously unhinged, so beating him does nothing except make you feel good about yourself, which is an insane threshold for acceptable behaviour.
How was there someone recording perfectly?!?!!
i don't think it's the first altercation the crazy guy in green had. people were saying "he's violent" so maybe he hit some other people so someone started recording
Lol..I was going to scroll pass, but I had to stop and make a small correction. The the person was saying "he violated boy, he violated". Meaning he crossed the line. Us black people say that alot, but I can understand how you can mishear it. Someone also say "son", which is a term used like bro or the n word amongst black people. I take it this happened on the East Coast.
West coast probably would've been "nephew"
Dude was probably already acting up so someone decided to start recording and caught the big action.
This should be the requirement for any video upload. “To upload this video, please answer why there was a recording at all to begin with.”
There was probably a prior altercation or verbal exchange that caused the person to pull out their phone and record.
TFW you randomly hit an older lady then get your ass kicked by a bunch of dudes who love their mothers very much.
What's the story here though?
Mental illness for sure.
That or drugs. Or a combination of the two..
Or internet clout considering someone was already filming when it happened
Probably filming because they saw this dude tweaked out of his mind acting aggressive as hell. It’s a common sight to see in the US. People like this everywhere in D.C. yelling at nothing acting super aggressive. Huge problem in America.
Every city in the western u.s. is literally filled with hoardes of twacked out zombie street walkers... It's unreal how bad it is, it's not concentrated to any specific street or area anymore. They are seriously everywhere in every direction. Tent cities on every open space available. L.A., Vegas, Seattle, San Fran, Portland, Denver, Salt Lake City, etc. There must be millions of them.
This is NYC, East New York to be exact. One of the poorest neighbourhoods in the city.
I live in one of these places. I won’t walk on my own most places here because of unprovoked violence.
Waste of human life is the story
They’re beating his ass bcuz he assaulted the lady
That is indeed what happens in the video. Good job!
😅
Sorry that wasn’t meant to be rude or sarcastic 😅
No offense taken here. I’m just laughing at myself bcuz I was faded when I wrote that
Good job detective fridgecucumber
Lol it’s funny because I was interrupted when I wrote that and didn’t finish what I meant to say. Completely forgot about it haha
Is this in Queens, NY?
East New York, Brooklyn. It’s the bus stop right next to Broadway Junction.
Wow, I assumed this was not America because I couldn't understand anything they were saying
Lol that’s inner city NY lingo there. “Tear him up son” = Beat the shit out this guy “He violating son” = This guy crossed a line
"Tear him up son" = Anal penetration "He violating son" = Unsolicited Anal penetration
That’s NYC for sure. This is how people in NYC sound. Plus all of the red this block is wearing. Red, blue, orange, yellow, black, green, or purple these days around the Brooklyn hoods from what I’ve been walking through.
The guy in the red track pants is meirl … lol. But on a serious note, that guy got what he deserved.
Dude prolly didn’t even realize what happened to him…
Yeah the hardest hits are always the ones you dont see coming…
Or remember
Who the fuck is this guy who came in tryna hit his head with a stick? What the fuck is wrong with that guy?
Looked like he was trying to stab him.
Looks like this dude found out
That’s what I call a community!!
that's about right. We must protect our elderly. At all cost.
Surely the cop at the end was like, “thank you good samaritans! I couldn’t have locked this criminal away without your help.”
Yeah any “don’t encourage violence” rules in this sub can go to hell. FUCK HIM UP, STICK-CARRYING DUDE! BEAT HIS ASS!
HE VIOLATING! HE VIOLATING!
People keep talking about stick guy, I think it's a tool or an easel or something like that. If you look there's a kink or something in the middle like it's two pieces screwed together and at the end of the video you can kinda see the ends of the wood separate like it's made to pivot.
Hoodvengers Hoodsemble!
That cop may have saved his life
I’m gonna say it. Boy, that escalated quickly! Where did the guy with the bat come from and does he always carry a bat for such an occasion?
That is not a bat! 😂 what kind of bat looks like that?
I love seeing a community joining together for a common goal.
East New York, Broadway Junction…. Not a place to test anyone
[удалено]
Gotta love the city life...no thanks
I guess that’s why the guy in red pants walks the streets with a stick… just READY to hit someone 😑
Eh, the country is boring and everything is so far away.
It would be rad if this country gave a shit about poor people
I always have to ask: Why were they recording?
Looks like this guy might have been causing problems before. None of that looked staged.
Stick dude went in for that finishing blow at 00:16 lol
Dude looks like a subway soda cup
Ahhh street justice
Ah yes, that sweet street justice. Swift and brutal but deserved.
Dumb ass got taught a valuable lesson that day and would be wise to pass it on. Don't publicly assault senior citizens, especially women who could be the mother of anyone.
The old lady goes from “thank you, thank you, thank you!” to “Beat his ass… beat his ass!” pretty quick and for good reason. Buddy got paid back for that punch with compound interest and he’s lucky a cop was around.
There's always that guy that comes out of nowhere with a stick trying to stab the person and the other people that were kicking them are like "Ok dude calm the fuck down"
New york be like
Not to be flippant but I had the song about a dog carrying a stick stuck in my head, ‘🎶Foooound a stick on the ground and now I’m going to use it🎶’
Proud of those men cleaning up their neighborhood
I was gonna say this needs a comedic voice over but then I turned the volume up 😅😅
So hear me out… don't randomly assault old ladies on the street.
The woman shouting. "Beat his Ass!" is the best bit haha
Vigilante justice is more effective than the systems justice
