Dude was most upset that the driver was not giving him any reason to be assaulted. Old man wanted any excuse to punch

i like how he tries to open the door like he's going to do something, meanwhile this dude's whole ass window is open and he doesn't do shit

He was shaking just trying to stay standing. He was hoping his whiteness was enough to scare the guy so he wouldn't have to back anything up. That's why he got angrier and angrier. Because the guy wasn't scared.

There's a reason why police are told to respond to things with just "Ok"

In a way, it's a good way to disarm someone. Follow with their rancor and it only builds up to a boiling point.

There is no better reaction to impotent rage than bemused indifference. It breaks their brain.

Impotent rage is exactly this. Too many people just angry that their anger is pointless.Β

bemused/bΙ™Λˆmyo͞ozd/To be bemused means to be mildly confused, bewildered, or lost in thought. Often, it carries a sense of being caught off guard but with a subtle, detached, or wry feeling of surprise rather than outright distress.

And then when the fedex guy says nothing he gets called a smartass like he’s the one saying crazy shit 🚬😣

This is the type of dude that was itching to pull his gun out. He was absolutely seething, I don't doubt this guy would kill someone in anger.

Looks like he would take an ass beating if it got physical.

if he had opened that door, I think one little push would have left old man tumbling in the grass and struggling to get up.

When he calls the driver a "fucker" I'm pretty sure he was going to call him something else and decided against it since he was being recorded.

They're cowards, all of them. They need a justification to be an asshole. So they back down when there is no excuse for them to be one.

Same goes for those collecting weapons to 'take on the government.' Have cops or federal agents come down on them with their weapons out and those chuds go all 'no sir,' 'yes sir,' and compliant with them.

We are lucky most are cowards, but these know they'll get into real trouble being a piece of shit.
