In this scenario, there is no grey area- dude tried to steal purse. Got the beating he deserved. Its on video. Someday when I am the supreme benevolent ruler of the world, this would be viewed as a good day. Driver would get dinner with me. We would have strip steaks, sweet potatoes, and he would get a cool medal. The perpetrator, who through this ordeal is now certainly rehabilitated, would be our server and would be paid minimum wage and then in a final lesson I would take the money back from him and send him away.

Remember to vote for me. I have all the answers.

Sweet potatoes with a steak? Yuck. You don't have all the answers.

Are you questioning dear leader? 4 years hard labor for you.

Trap his fingers in a bus door and beat him with a stick!

The difference between this scene there and this scene here: Lawyers

You made all the stops?

Telephono el abigado.

Move over Birdman

That's exactly what I thought.

The guy got what was coming to him but in our privileged society the driver (although he did show restraint) would be in serous trouble with the cops.
