I looked into the story a bit the first time I saw it, I feel sorry for the old guy, there is a lot going around about who actually started it which isn’t clear but it seems like the video only cuts in half way and you miss the start of the argument, the black guy clearly says “I said, why a brother got to spit shine your shoes” when you haven’t even heard him say that on the video.  Either way it seems to have just been a miss understanding that went too far.
